FindPython2

在 3.12 版被加入.

Find Python 2 interpreter, compiler and development environment (include directories and libraries).

在 3.19 版被加入: When a version is requested, it can be specified as a simple value or as a range. For a detailed description of version range usage and capabilities, refer to the find_package() command.

The following components are supported:

  • Interpreter: search for Python 2 interpreter

  • Compiler: search for Python 2 compiler. Only offered by IronPython.

  • Development: search for development artifacts (include directories and libraries).

    在 3.18 版被加入: This component includes two sub-components which can be specified independently:

    • Development.Module: search for artifacts for Python 2 module developments.

    • Development.Embed: search for artifacts for Python 2 embedding developments.

  • NumPy: search for NumPy include directories.

在 3.14 版被加入: Added the NumPy component.

If no COMPONENTS are specified, Interpreter is assumed.

If component Development is specified, it implies sub-components Development.Module and Development.Embed.

To ensure consistent versions between components Interpreter, Compiler, Development (or one of its sub-components) and NumPy, specify all components at the same time:

find_package (Python2 COMPONENTS Interpreter Development)

This module looks only for version 2 of Python. This module can be used concurrently with FindPython3 module to use both Python versions.

The FindPython module can be used if Python version does not matter for you.

備註

If components Interpreter and Development (or one of its sub-components) are both specified, this module search only for interpreter with same platform architecture as the one defined by CMake configuration. This constraint does not apply if only Interpreter component is specified.

Hints

Python2_ROOT_DIR

Define the root directory of a Python 2 installation.

Python2_USE_STATIC_LIBS

  • If not defined, search for shared libraries and static libraries in that order.

  • If set to TRUE, search only for static libraries.

  • If set to FALSE, search only for shared libraries.

備註

This hint will be ignored on Windows because static libraries are not available on this platform.

Python2_FIND_STRATEGY

在 3.15 版被加入.

This variable defines how lookup will be done. The Python2_FIND_STRATEGY variable can be set to one of the following:

  • VERSION: Try to find the most recent version in all specified locations. This is the default if policy CMP0094 is undefined or set to OLD.

  • LOCATION: Stops lookup as soon as a version satisfying version constraints is founded. This is the default if policy CMP0094 is set to NEW.

See also Python2_FIND_UNVERSIONED_NAMES.

Python2_FIND_REGISTRY

在 3.13 版被加入.

On Windows the Python2_FIND_REGISTRY variable determine the order of preference between registry and environment variables. the Python2_FIND_REGISTRY variable can be set to one of the following:

  • FIRST: Try to use registry before environment variables. This is the default.

  • LAST: Try to use registry after environment variables.

  • NEVER: Never try to use registry.

Python2_FIND_FRAMEWORK

在 3.15 版被加入.

On macOS the Python2_FIND_FRAMEWORK variable determine the order of preference between Apple-style and unix-style package components. This variable can take same values as CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK variable.

備註

Value ONLY is not supported so FIRST will be used instead.

If Python2_FIND_FRAMEWORK is not defined, CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK variable will be used, if any.

Python2_FIND_VIRTUALENV

在 3.15 版被加入.

This variable defines the handling of virtual environments managed by virtualenv or conda. It is meaningful only when a virtual environment is active (i.e. the activate script has been evaluated). In this case, it takes precedence over Python2_FIND_REGISTRY and CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK variables. The Python2_FIND_VIRTUALENV variable can be set to one of the following:

  • FIRST: The virtual environment is used before any other standard paths to look-up for the interpreter. This is the default.

  • ONLY: Only the virtual environment is used to look-up for the interpreter.

  • STANDARD: The virtual environment is not used to look-up for the interpreter but environment variable PATH is always considered. In this case, variable Python2_FIND_REGISTRY (Windows) or CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK (macOS) can be set with value LAST or NEVER to select preferably the interpreter from the virtual environment.

在 3.17 版被加入: Added support for conda environments.

備註

If the component Development is requested (or one of its sub-components) and is not found or the wrong artifacts are returned, including also the component Interpreter may be helpful.

Python2_FIND_IMPLEMENTATIONS

在 3.18 版被加入.

This variable defines, in an ordered list, the different implementations which will be searched. The Python2_FIND_IMPLEMENTATIONS variable can hold the following values:

  • CPython: this is the standard implementation. Various products, like Anaconda or ActivePython, rely on this implementation.

  • IronPython: This implementation use the CSharp language for .NET Framework on top of the Dynamic Language Runtime (DLR). See IronPython.

  • PyPy: This implementation use RPython language and RPython translation toolchain to produce the python interpreter. See PyPy.

The default value is:

  • Windows platform: CPython, IronPython

  • Other platforms: CPython

備註

This hint has the lowest priority of all hints, so even if, for example, you specify IronPython first and CPython in second, a python product based on CPython can be selected because, for example with Python2_FIND_STRATEGY=LOCATION, each location will be search first for IronPython and second for CPython.

備註

When IronPython is specified, on platforms other than Windows, the .Net interpreter (i.e. mono command) is expected to be available through the PATH variable.

Python2_FIND_UNVERSIONED_NAMES

在 3.20 版被加入.

This variable defines how the generic names will be searched. Currently, it only applies to the generic names of the interpreter, namely, python2 and python. The Python2_FIND_UNVERSIONED_NAMES variable can be set to one of the following values:

  • FIRST: The generic names are searched before the more specialized ones (such as python2.5 for example).

  • LAST: The generic names are searched after the more specialized ones. This is the default.

  • NEVER: The generic name are not searched at all.

See also Python2_FIND_STRATEGY.

Artifacts Specification

在 3.16 版被加入.

To solve special cases, it is possible to specify directly the artifacts by setting the following variables:

Python2_EXECUTABLE

The path to the interpreter.

Python2_COMPILER

The path to the compiler.

Python2_DOTNET_LAUNCHER

在 3.18 版被加入.

The .Net interpreter. Only used by IronPython implementation.

Python2_LIBRARY

The path to the library. It will be used to compute the variables Python2_LIBRARIES, Python2_LIBRARY_DIRS and Python2_RUNTIME_LIBRARY_DIRS.

Python2_INCLUDE_DIR

The path to the directory of the Python headers. It will be used to compute the variable Python2_INCLUDE_DIRS.

Python2_NumPy_INCLUDE_DIR

The path to the directory of the NumPy headers. It will be used to compute the variable Python2_NumPy_INCLUDE_DIRS.

備註

All paths must be absolute. Any artifact specified with a relative path will be ignored.

備註

When an artifact is specified, all HINTS will be ignored and no search will be performed for this artifact.

If more than one artifact is specified, it is the user's responsibility to ensure the consistency of the various artifacts.

By default, this module supports multiple calls in different directories of a project with different version/component requirements while providing correct and consistent results for each call. To support this behavior, CMake cache is not used in the traditional way which can be problematic for interactive specification. So, to enable also interactive specification, module behavior can be controlled with the following variable:

Python2_ARTIFACTS_INTERACTIVE

在 3.18 版被加入.

Selects the behavior of the module. This is a boolean variable:

  • If set to TRUE: Create CMake cache entries for the above artifact specification variables so that users can edit them interactively. This disables support for multiple version/component requirements.

  • If set to FALSE or undefined: Enable multiple version/component requirements.

Python2_ARTIFACTS_PREFIX

在 4.0 版被加入.

Define a custom prefix which will be used for the definition of all the result variables, targets, and commands. By using this variable, this module supports multiple calls in the same directory with different version/component requirements. For example, in case of cross-compilation, development components are needed but the native python interpreter can also be required:

find_package(Python2 COMPONENTS Development)

set(Python2_ARTIFACTS_PREFIX "_HOST")
find_package(Python2 COMPONENTS Interpreter)

# Here Python2_HOST_EXECUTABLE and Python2_HOST::Interpreter artifacts are defined

備註

For consistency with standard behavior of modules, the various standard _FOUND variables (i.e. without the custom prefix) are also defined by each call to the find_package() command.

Commands

This module defines the command Python2_add_library (when CMAKE_ROLE is PROJECT), which has the same semantics as add_library() and adds a dependency to target Python2::Python or, when library type is MODULE, to target Python2::Module and takes care of Python module naming rules:

Python2_add_library (<name> [STATIC | SHARED | MODULE]
                     <source1> [<source2> ...])

If library type is not specified, MODULE is assumed.

在 3.30 版被加入: For MODULE type, the DEBUG_POSTFIX target property is initialized with the value of Python2_DEBUG_POSTFIX variable if defined.
