Sticky Revision: |
+ OUCH ARGHH + Okay the wizzy linkHack doesn't work. Not sure why but py_tests fail when the shared library is on the link line directly (without a -l) + Unfortunately we can't figure out how to use -l without it prepending a lib prefix. Hence all the shareable objects in python now need to be called libblah.so (and lib will need to be prepended on windows!!!!). This is not the python way and its very annoying. Why do we have this problem? Because the C++ shared libraries link with each other.
+ Fix up python esys area: + libraries are named without lib prefix on posix platforms (python standard) + libraries are now installed into the pyinstall area (python standard) + symlinks removed, no longer required + LD_LIBRARY_PATH is now optional for PYTHON programs (still required for c++) + lib PREFIX removal NOTES: + removing the lib prefix is non-standard for the linker. As such we've created a custom function sharedLinkHack to specify the .so on the link command line (as opposed to using -l<archive> which will prepend the lib). This has a a small slight of hand for scons which was being to "helpful". Scons verifies that when creating a shared libray all objects specified are created shareable (e.g. ensure objects are compiler with -fPIC). Since we are linking a .so out of the blue we had to wrap it up in a File note and flag it as shared. Easily done, once you know how. Thankfully this is all wrapped up in a simple function (sharedLinkHack) that looks like ordinary scons so you will never know!
+py_tests now runs. Be patient, it is all of them!!
+Opps, helps if you include the two new files for Finley tests
