If one build the C lib from sources (sourceforge trunk) and install it - the ta_func.h header in /usr/local/include/ will contain function declarations like:
TA_LIB_API TA_RetCode TA_ACOS( int startIdx, ...
....
TA_LIB_API TA_RetCode TA_S_ACOS( int startIdx, ...
...
TA_LIB_API int TA_ACOS_Lookback( void );
while generate_*.py scripts are likely expecting declarations without TA_LIB_API prefix like inside http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ta-lib/ta-lib-0.4.0-src.tar.gz and unable to parse the header from trunk. Which makes addition of a new indicator even more complicated.
This simple patch should make scripts compatible with both headers.
