Support compiling portable "abi3" extension modules even when
the build host Python interpreter configuration is not available
or the discovered Python interpreter version is not supported.
Maturin already implements this by building "abi3" extension wheels
with `PYO3_NO_PYTHON` environment veriable set for cargo when
an `abi3-py3*` feature is detected.
Closes#2292
Automatically generate `python3.dll` import libraries for Windows
compile targets in the build script.
Adds a new PyO3 crate feature `generate-abi3-import-lib` enabling
automatic import library generation.
Closes#2231
According to https://bugs.python.org/issue36707, this tag is useless
since version 3.4, but also the default until version 3.8.
For example, Debian 10 ships `libpython3.7m.so`.
This patch folds the `PYO3_NO_PYTHON` + `abi3` special case into
the existing native and cross compilation code paths.
The cross compilation route is now guaranteed to behave the same
whether `PYO3_NO_PYTHON` is set or not (except for sysconfigdata
discovery for the Unix targets).
The native compilation route now stores the hardcoded abi3 interpreter
configuration in place of the discovered configuration blob.
Adds a new cross-compile target interpreter configuration
environment variable.
This feature allows PyO3 to target PyPy on both Windows and Unix
cross compile targets.
Rename `$OUT_DIR/pyo3-cross-compile-config.txt` to
`$OUT_DIR/<triple>/pyo3-build-config.txt` to exclude the possibility
of using stale build configuration data when the build target changes.
Use the presence of the corresponding build configuration file
in the `pyo3-build-config` build script output directory
to detect whether we are cross compiling or not.
This patch enables cross compilation without using
any of `PYO3_CROSS_*` env variables in many cases.
Try to generalize `windows_hardcoded_cross_compile()`
to all supported target platforms (when possible).
Rename it to `default_cross_compile()` and add some unit tests.
Rewrite `load_cross_compile_config()` to fall back to
the default interpreter configuration when no other config
information sources are available.
Change the `CrossCompileConfig` structure definition and make
the public `lib_dir` field optional to support more flexible
cross-compilation configuration in the future.
FIXME: This change breaks the public `pyo3-build-config` crate API.
Update the sysconfigdata extraction functions to fall through
when `lib_dir` field is not set.
WIP: Add `unwrap()` stubs to the main cross compile switch.
