Build

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..

creates the 2 targets (cmake_example or .a file for my_math) that we can subsequently build using make, e.g.

make cmake_example

Create wheel using setup.py and install package

python3 setup.py bdist_wheel

generates the .whl file in the dist directory which can now be installed using pip

cd ..
python3 -m venv .venv
./.venv/bin/pip install dist/WHL_FILE

Check that it has been installed to the site-packages directory of your virtual environment's Python (here: python3.10)

ls .venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/

Testing

Start a Python shell using ./.venv/bin/python and try importing and using the functions by entering:

import cmake_example
cmake_example.add(4,5)
cmake_example.subtract(4,5)
