If you run configure while in a py3 environment (i.e via virtualenv) the configure will correctly detect the py3 variables. I made the build against py3 on 1.4.18, and changes need to be done at 3 places though, after running configure above. 1) libs/esl/python/python-config because as it is this code is not py3 compliant. You can easily use 2to3 for this. 2) Make a slight change to the Makefile in libs/esl/python to pass the -py3 parameter to swig instead, so it produces a py3 compliant esl_wrap.cpp --- a/libs/esl/python/Makefile +++ b/libs/esl/python/Makefile @@ -5,7 +5,7 @@ SITE_DIR=$(DESTDIR)/`python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; all: _ESL.so esl_wrap.cpp: - swig -module ESL -classic -python -c++ -DMULTIPLICITY -threads -I../src/include -o esl_wrap.cpp ../ESL.i + swig -module ESL -py3 -python -c++ -DMULTIPLICITY -threads -I../src/include -o esl_wrap.cpp ../ESL.i esl_wrap.o: esl_wrap.cpp $(CXX) $(CXX_CFLAGS) $(CXXFLAGS) $(LOCAL_CFLAGS) -c esl_wrap.cpp -o esl_wrap.o 3) Finally, I'm not sure if this is needed for all environment (mine is Ubuntu 14.04 LTS x86_64) but I made a slight change to the libs/esl/python/python-config after putting it through 2to3: elif opt in ('--libs', '--ldflags'): libs = getvar('LIBS').split() + getvar('SYSLIBS').split() - libs.append('-lpython'+pyver) + if pyver[0] == "3": + libs.append('-lpython'+pyver+'m') + else: + libs.append('-lpython'+pyver) In my environment, the python3 library is called libpython3.4m, so I had to append an "m" at the end of the library name, i.e: On 18 May 2015 at 12:05, Michael Jerris <mike@jerris.com> wrote:
we will need some way that uses configure to detect the right python, and builds against old and new python.

Michael,
I have managed to build the library againts py3 and will make a pull request later.

I don't think we have ever tried it, but we would be happy to take pull requests to fix any issues with it.

Hello,
I've managed to compile, install and use the python esl library from freeswitch 1.4.18, but am now wondering is there a way to get the python esl library for python3?
I've tried changing the Makefiles in libs/esl/python to point to python3 and made sure my dev packages are installed, but the compilation failed.
Does the python esl module supports python3?
