def setup(**attr):
    """
    The interface is used to config the process of compiling customized operators,
    mainly includes how to complile shared library, automatically generate python API 
    and install it into site-package. It supports using customized operators directly with
    ``import`` statement.

    It encapsulates the python built-in ``setuptools.setup`` function and keeps arguments
    and usage same as the native interface. Meanwhile, it hiddens Paddle inner framework
    concepts, such as necessary compiling flags, included paths of head files, and linking
    flags. It also will automatically search and valid local enviromment and versions of 
    ``cc(Linux)`` , ``cl.exe(Windows)`` and ``nvcc`` , then compiles customized operators 
    supporting CPU or GPU device according to the specified Extension type.

    Moreover, `ABI compatibility <https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/abi.html>`_ 
    will be checked to ensure that compiler version from ``cc(Linux)`` , ``cl.exe(Windows)``
    on local machine is compatible with pre-installed Paddle whl in python site-packages.

    For Linux, GCC version will be checked . For example if Paddle with CUDA 10.1 is built with GCC 8.2, 
    then the version of user's local machine should satisfy GCC >= 8.2. 
    For Windows, Visual Studio version will be checked, and it shoule be greater than or equal to that of 
    PaddlePaddle (Visual Studio 2015 update3). 
    If the above conditions are not met, the corresponding warning will be printed, and a fatal error may 
    occur because of ABI compatibility.

    .. note::
        
        1. Currently we support Linux and Windows platfrom. MacOS is supporting...
        2. On Linux platform, we recommend to use GCC 8.2 as soft linking condidate of ``/usr/bin/cc`` .
           Then, Use ``which cc`` to ensure location of ``cc`` and using ``cc --version`` to ensure linking 
           GCC version.
        3. On Windows platform, we recommend to install `` Visual Studio`` (>=2015 update3).


    Compared with Just-In-Time ``load`` interface, it only compiles once by executing
    ``python setup.py install`` . Then customized operators API will be available everywhere
    after importing it.

    A simple example of ``setup.py`` as followed: 

    .. code-block:: text

        # setup.py 

        # Case 1: Compiling customized operators supporting CPU and GPU devices
        from paddle.utils.cpp_extension import CUDAExtension, setup

        setup(
            name='custom_op',  # name of package used by "import"
            ext_modules=CUDAExtension(
                sources=['relu_op.cc', 'relu_op.cu', 'tanh_op.cc', 'tanh_op.cu']  # Support for compilation of multiple OPs
            )
        )

        # Case 2: Compiling customized operators supporting only CPU device
        from paddle.utils.cpp_extension import CppExtension, setup

        setup(
            name='custom_op',  # name of package used by "import"
            ext_modules=CppExtension(
                sources=['relu_op.cc', 'tanh_op.cc']  # Support for compilation of multiple OPs
            )
        )


    Applying compilation and installation by executing ``python setup.py install`` under source files directory.
    Then we can use the layer api as followed:

    .. code-block:: text

        import paddle
        from custom_op import relu, tanh

        x = paddle.randn([4, 10], dtype='float32')
        relu_out = relu(x)
        tanh_out = tanh(x)

                                supporting CPU and GPU devices, please use ``CUDAExtension`` .
        include_dirs(list[str], optional): Specify the extra include directoies to search head files. The interface will automatically add
                                 ``site-package/paddle/include`` . Please add the corresponding directory path if including third-party
                                 head files. Default is None.
        extra_compile_args(list[str] | dict, optional): Specify the extra compiling flags such as ``-O3`` . If set ``list[str]`` , all these flags
                                will be applied for ``cc`` and ``nvcc`` compiler. It support specify flags only applied ``cc`` or ``nvcc``
                                compiler using dict type with ``{'cxx': [...], 'nvcc': [...]}`` . Default is None.

    An Interface to automatically compile C++/CUDA source files Just-In-Time

    append user defined custom operators in background while building models.

    It will perform compiling, linking, Python API generation and module loading
    processes under a individual subprocess. It does not require CMake or Ninja 
    environment. On Linux platform, it requires GCC compiler whose version is 
    greater than 5.4 and it should be soft linked to ``/usr/bin/cc`` . On Windows 
    platform, it requires Visual Studio whose version is greater than 2015 update3.
    On MacOS, clang++ is requited. In addition, if compiling Operators supporting 
    GPU device, please make sure ``nvcc`` compiler is installed in local environment.
    
    Moreover, `ABI compatibility <https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/abi.html>`_ 
    will be checked to ensure that compiler version from ``cc(Linux)`` , ``cl.exe(Windows)``
    on local machine is compatible with pre-installed Paddle whl in python site-packages.

    For Linux, GCC version will be checked . For example if Paddle with CUDA 10.1 is built with GCC 8.2, 
    then the version of user's local machine should satisfy GCC >= 8.2. 
    For Windows, Visual Studio version will be checked, and it shoule be greater than or equal to that of 
    PaddlePaddle (Visual Studio 2015 update3). 
    If the above conditions are not met, the corresponding warning will be printed, and a fatal error may 
    occur because of ABI compatibility.

    Compared with ``setup`` interface, it doesn't need extra ``setup.py`` and excute
    ``python setup.py install`` command. The interface contains all compiling and installing
    process underground.

    .. note::

        1. Currently we support Linux and Windows platfrom. MacOS is supporting...
        2. On Linux platform, we recommend to use GCC 8.2 as soft linking condidate of ``/usr/bin/cc`` .
           Then, Use ``which cc`` to ensure location of ``cc`` and using ``cc --version`` to ensure linking 
           GCC version.
        3. On Windows platform, we recommend to install `` Visual Studio`` (>=2015 update3).
