[GRASS-dev] compiling vdigit in wxPython

I got farther trying to compile vdigit today. Unfortunately, it still isn’t quite there.

First, here is the configure script I used. It configured without error.

./configure --with-freetype --with-freetype-includes=“/Library/Frameworks/FreeType.framework/unix/include/freetype2 /Library/Frameworks/FreeType.framework/unix/include” --with-freetype-libs=/Library/Frameworks/FreeType.framework/unix/lib --with-gdal=/Library/Frameworks/GDAL.framework/Programs/gdal-config --with-proj --with-proj-includes=/Library/Frameworks/PROJ.framework/unix/include --with-proj-libs=/Library/Frameworks/PROJ.framework/unix/lib --with-proj-share=/Library/Frameworks/PROJ.framework/Resources/proj --with-jpeg-includes=/Library/Frameworks/UnixImageIO.framework/unix/include --with-jpeg-libs=/Library/Frameworks/UnixImageIO.framework/unix/lib --with-png-includes=/Library/Frameworks/UnixImageIO.framework/unix/include --with-png-libs=/Library/Frameworks/UnixImageIO.framework/unix/lib --with-tiff-includes=/Library/Frameworks/UnixImageIO.framework/unix/include --with-tiff-libs=/Library/Frameworks/UnixImageIO.framework/unix/lib --without-postgres --without-mysql --with-odbc --with-sqlite --with-sqlite-libs=/Library/Frameworks/SQLite3.framework/unix/lib --with-sqlite-includes=/Library/Frameworks/SQLite3.framework/unix/include --with-fftw-includes=/Library/Frameworks/FFTW3.framework/unix/include --with-fftw-libs=/Library/Frameworks/FFTW3.framework/unix/lib --with-cxx --with-tcltk-includes=/usr/local/tcltk/include --with-tcltk-libs=/usr/local/tcltk/lib --with-x --without-motif --without-glw --with-opengl=x11 --with-opengl-libs=/usr/X11R6/lib --without-readline --prefix=/Applications/Grass --enable-macosx-app --with-python --with-wxwidgets=/usr/local/lib/wxPython-unicode-2.8.7.1/bin/wx-config

Second, I DIDN’T make the link to libgdi.so because…

  1. my wx folder already has a gdi.so file AND
  2. I don’t seem to have a libgdi.so file

So here is the error.

cmb-MBP-2:~/grass_dev/grass_src cmbarton$ cd ./gui/wxpython/vdigit

It's the other way around - libgdi.so is the symlink you're creating to the existing _gdi_.so.

That's strange - I wonder where that "-dynamic" came from? That's a linker option, and this is just a compile step. That may be what is causing the unhelpful error.

OK. I made the link and still got a similar, but a bit different error

Same error, just not strung out on one line. It's not getting to the link step yet, so the libgdi symlink hasn't come into play yet.

I tried it on Leopard and it's compiling the .o's, but I get errors in the linking. It's strange, but I have all the same compile options, just in a different order, like it's ignoring the makefile's object target (yours looks like it is according to the makefile).

The OBJ.<arch> directory isn't being created.

Normally, this is done by the following in Rules.make

  $(OBJDIR):
    -test -d $(OBJDIR) || $(MKDIR) $(OBJDIR)
  
  ifeq ($(BROKEN_MAKE),)
  ...
  $(OBJDIR)/%.o : %.cpp $(LOCAL_HEADERS) $(EXTRA_HEADERS) | $(OBJDIR)
    $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) $(NLS_CFLAGS) $(EXTRA_INC) $(INC) -o $@ -c $<
  else
  ...
  $(OBJDIR)/%.o : %.cpp $(LOCAL_HEADERS) $(EXTRA_HEADERS)
    $(MAKE) $(OBJDIR)
    $(CC) $(CXXFLAGS) $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) $(NLS_CFLAGS) $(EXTRA_INC) $(INC) -o $@ -c $<
  endif

[NOTE: the latter rule incorrectly uses $(CC) instead of $(CXX), which
I'll fix shortly.]

vdigit/Makefile has a conflicting rule:

  $(OBJARCH)/%.o: %.cpp $(LOCAL_HEADERS)
    $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(INCLUDE_DIRS) $< -o $@

When multiple single-colon rules exist for a target, the dependencies
are merged while the commands from the second override those from the
first.

In the case where $(BROKEN_MAKE) isn't set, the order-only dependency
upon $(OBJDIR) is retained, which causes $(OBJDIR) to be created
first. But in the case where $(BROKEN_MAKE) is set, there is no
dependency, and the command to create the directory isn't executed
because the commands in vdigit/Makefile override it.

The best solution is to discard the rule from vdigit/Makefile, and
just use the one from Rules.make, setting EXTRA_INC to $(INCLUDE_DIRS).
