mac mojave blocks relative pathed libraries, here is the fix
def install_name_tool(dependent=None, depends=[]):
'''
make the lib full path to get around security blocking relative paths
'''
for dependson in depends:
full_path = os.path.abspath(dependson)
shell_str='install_name_tool -change {0} {1} {2}'.format(dependson, full_path, dependent)
print(' install_name_tool: {0}'.format(dependson))
invoke.run(shell_str)
mac compile gets upset about missing symbols
ignore missing symbols on a mac
On Mac OS: the build command is almost the same but it also requires passing the -undefined dynamic_lookup flag so as to ignore missing symbols when building the module:
def compile_python_module(cpp_name, extension_name):
invoke.run(
"g++ -O3 -Wall -Werror -shared -std=c++11 -fPIC "
"`python3.8-config --includes` "
"`python3 -m pybind11 --includes` "
"-undefined dynamic_lookup "
"-I . "
"{0} "
"-o {1}`python3.8-config --extension-suffix` "
"-L. -lcppmult -Wl,-rpath,.".format(cpp_name, extension_name)
)
here is the output from a good compile and test run
$ invoke all
