Hi all! As you may have gleaned from the traffic on this list recently, work has been done on the python scripting and plugin interface for hugin. There is a branch for this project, called python_scripting, and the python interface and the plugin interface have been made to run on Kubuntu and Windows. So far, there hasn't been any echo from the Mac side of things. What would be required is a trial build of the python_scripting branch under Mac OS, to see if it compiles and runs there as well. Trying this should require some, but not excessive effort:
- The system has to have Python - I don't know what the Mac standard is, but I'd even think it possible Macs already have it per default. - The system should have SWIG, the 'Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator', version 2.0.1, which should be compiled from source. after that it should be a matter of running an ordinary cmake cycle on the python_scripting branch with BUILD_HSI=ON; the cmake code should deal with the system-specific details. What's missing from the cmake code is install targets, since neither T. Modes nor I knew where to install the Python modules on Mac OS. So it should be easy - theoretically - but if problems ocur, it'd be great to know of them now rather than after putting more work into the code on the platforms it runs on. If any of you have already managed to compile the branch on Mac OS, please report as well! If you want to just read up on the project and don't have access to the code, the README is also available by itself from my bazaar repo, and it should give you an idea about what's required to get going: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kfj/+junk/script/view/head:/main/README.hsi Kay -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
