== Building The Modules == #build

Using Microsoft Visual Studio projects:
 1. Open '''pjsip-apps.dsw''' from {{{pjsip-apps\build}}} directory.
 1. Select '''python_pjsua''' project as the active project.
 1. Build the project
 1. The {{{_pjsua.pyd}}} Python module will be placed in {{{pjsip-apps\lib}}} directory.
 1. Copy {{{_pjsua.pyd}}} and {{{pjsua.py}}} from {{{pjsip-apps\src\python}}} directory to Python's site_packages directory (see Python manual for this), or alternatively add the directories where these files reside to your {{{PYTHONPATH}}} environment variable.

Using Python build script:
 1. Build the PJSIP libraries first with the usual "{{{./configure && make dep && make}}}" commands.
 1. Go to {{{pjsip-apps/src/python}}} directory.
 1. Run '''{{{'python ./setup.py build'}}}'''
 1. The Python module will be placed in {{{build}}} directory inside current directory.
 1. Alternatively run '''{{{'sudo python ./setup.py install'}}}''' to install both '''_pjsua''' and '''pjsua''' modules to Python's {{{site_packages}}} directory.
