[OpenWrt-Devel] python ctypes.util.find_library cannot find libc

[郭涛]

Hi Andrew & Alexandru

Forget the patch in prev mail, use attached patch instead.

To use ctypes.util.find_library, you need one of gcc, ldconfig or
objdump. I suggest you use ldconfig

After install ldconfig,  run ldconfig first to update cache
then run ldconfig -p to show all of your libraries
in my case, it shows:

195 libs found in cache `/etc/ld.so.cache' (version 1.7.0)
        uhttpd_tls.so (libc0) => /usr/lib/uhttpd_tls.so
        rclibrary.so (libc0) => /usr/lib/rclibrary.so
        libz.so.1 (libc0) => /usr/lib/libz.so.1
        libz.so (libc0) => /usr/lib/libz.so
        libyaml-0.so.2 (libc0) => /usr/lib/libyaml-0.so.2
        ......

All libraries are libc0, that's why ctypes.util.find_library does not
work on my platform

You need to run 'uname -m' to get your matchine name and run 'ldconfig
-p' to get library type.
Atter all, append  '$machine' : '$type'  to  mach_map list in
ctypes/util.py and try find_library('pthread')


>>> from ctypes.util import find_library
>>>
>>> find_library('pthread')
'libpthread.so.0'
