# Support for Python and the the Boost.Python library.
#
# This module defines
#
# - a project 'python' with a target 'python' in it, that corresponds to the
#   python library
#
# - a main target rule 'python-extension' which can be used to build a python
#   extension.
#
# Extensions that use Boost.Python must explicitly link to it.

# The pythonpath feature specifies additional elements for the PYTHONPATH
# environment variable, set by run-pyd. For example, pythonpath can be used to
# access Python modules that are part of the product being built, but are not
# installed in the development system's default paths.
feature.feature pythonpath : : free optional path ;

# Initializes the Python toolset. Note that all parameters are optional.
#
# - version -- the version of Python to use. Should be in Major.Minor format,
#   for example 2.3.  Do not include the subminor version.
#
# - cmd-or-prefix: Preferably, a command that invokes a Python interpreter.
#   Alternatively, the installation prefix for Python libraries and includes. If
#   empty, will be guessed from the version, the platform's installation
#   patterns, and the python executables that can be found in PATH.
#
# - includes: the include path to Python headers. If empty, will be guessed.
#
# - libraries: the path to Python library binaries. If empty, will be guessed.
#   On MacOS/Darwin, you can also pass the path of the Python framework.
#
# - condition: if specified, should be a set of properties that are matched
#   against the build configuration when Boost.Build selects a Python
#   configuration to use.
#
# - extension-suffix: A string to append to the name of extension modules before
#   the true filename extension.  Ordinarily we would just compute this based on
#   the value of the <python-debugging> feature. However ubuntu's python-dbg
#   package uses the windows convention of appending _d to debug-build extension
#   modules. We have no way of detecting ubuntu, or of probing python for the
#   "_d" requirement, and if you configure and build python using
#   --with-pydebug, you'll be using the standard *nix convention. Defaults to ""
#   (or "_d" when targeting windows and <python-debugging> is set).
#
# Example usage:
#
#   using python : 2.3 ;
#   using python : 2.3 : /usr/local/bin/python ;
