Cython on AIX, HP-UX and z/Linux anyone?

May 9th, 2012

I’m considering re-writing a lot of PyMQI in Cython to cut down on the amount of C  I have to deal with but the thing is, one of the most popular platforms PyMQI runs just fine on is AIX and, to some extent, HP-UX and z/Linux. A fellow Python and MQ user has once contributed access to a Solaris SPARC box but I have no access to any other of the exotic systems. Well, except for Windows ;-)

So I’m wondering if people can share their experiences with using Cython on anything else than Linux and Windows, and it would be fantastic if that something else was AIX, HP-UX or z/Linux. Is there anything I should be particularly aware of? Plain sailing? Or better drop the idea for now? What do you think?

Cheers!

    I’ve used z/Linux a bit before when I was working at IBM. As far as im aware its not a whole lot different to actualy linux, except compiled for z. There are only a few Distro’s that actually ship a z/Linux image, (RHEL is one) so you could either approach IBM, or Redhat probably for a test image. If you have probalems send me an email and i’ll see if I can put you in contact with someone.

    Cheers
