pyassimp.errors.AssimpError: assimp library not found
hmm, it worked for me...:-(
trying to find words to ask you how and what, i think i found the
reason: pyassimp looks for /usr/lib/libassimp.so which is only
provided by libassimp-dev (which i most likely had installed when
testing) since the findmechanism in pyassimp for dlopen() is rather
simplistic, i guess this is the reason why it fails.
thanks for pointing that out.
Yeah, the whole search_library() function could be replaced by a simple:
return ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary('libassimp.so.2')
(Well, modulo support for non-UNIX-y operating systems.)
yes, i came up with something equivalent (though not checked in yet),
but also using
ctypes.util.find_library('assimp')
to resolve "libassimp.so.2" dynamically.
But why? The Python code has hardcoded assumptions about the library
ABI, so you should open libassimp.so.2, not any other libassimp.so.N
(which ABI might be different).
since i am no python programmer, i wonder whether this is portable
(w32, osx)
AFAICT ctypes.util.find_library is implemented for all platform, though
using it is almost always bad idea.
Also, why did it print stuff on stdout? :/
ask upstream :-)
...
no, seriously.
Well, I have no interest in your package, I don't even know what it's
all about. I was just (implicitly) asked by Michael to review the Python
part of it, so I did.
