New submission from Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com>: build_ext calculates which files for an Extension need to be recompiled. This calculation is way to aggrasive: if any source file for an Extension has changed all source files get recompiled.
It would be nice if distutils would only recompile the sources that actually changed (taking into account the 'depends' attribute of the Extension). If I read the code correctly this would be a new version, it seems that the current behavior is intentional. ---------- assignee: tarek components: Distutils messages: 99135 nosy: ronaldoussoren, tarek severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: too aggressive dependency tracking in distutils type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7894> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
