Hi there,
I recently updated our project by merging in the 2012.12.0 MITK release into
our github clone of MITK.
Then I had a strange problem whereby our external project plugins were
resolved, but the plugins that these plugins depended on were not.
I have attached the error in error.txt. I ended up by changing the macro
gp_resolve_item_override.txt. I have attaches a before.txt and after.txt.
At the moment I am only testing this solution on my Mac running Snow Leopard,
but the problem exists also on Scientific Linux.
However, I still don't fully understand it, so Im not sure whether to raise a
bug??
So, as I see it:
1. We have our own plugins that get copied into the installation folder
blah.app/Contents/MacOS/plugins
2. The fixup_bundle process will determine that the plugin in question, can
be resolved within the bundle, and calculate the embedded path as
@executable_path/plugins
3. But this plugin depends on libuk_ac_ucl_cmic_gui_qt_common.dylib which
exists in the same directory, and hence otool -L reveals that it has a relative
path that is empty
4. So, in gp_resolve_item in GetPrerequisites.cmake this code:
if(NOT resolved)
set(ri "ri-NOTFOUND")
find_file(ri "${item}" ${exepath} ${dirs} NO_DEFAULT_PATH)
find_file(ri "${item}" ${exepath} ${dirs} /usr/lib)
if(ri)
#message(STATUS "info: 'find_file' in exepath/dirs (${ri})")
set(resolved 1)
set(resolved_item "${ri}")
set(ri "ri-NOTFOUND")
endif(ri)
endif(NOT resolved)
fails to resolve it, as the ${dirs} includes stuff like the
MITK-build/MITK-build/bin but not the installation folder where the plugins are
residing.
5. So I thought about adding more paths to the ${dirs} variable, but there is
a mechanism to add an addtional function called gp_resolve_item_override.
6. However, the bit of code I removed in the "before.txt" firstly is only
defined for non Apple platforms, and secondly it only deals with blueberry
plugins, which doesn't seem suitable for plugins in general, and certainly not
for 3rd party plugins for external projects.
7. So, the function I added in after.txt tries to match the plugin within the
installation plugin folder.
8. So, I think that the provided function may be better or more correct,
although currently needs a bit of refactoring to remove duplications.
BUT
9. I have no idea why these error messages have only just appeared, as
looking through the revision history of mitkMacroInstall.cmake, or
GetPrerequisites.cmake or BundleUtilities.cmake doesn't suggest any relevant
change between 2012.09 and 2012.12 that I can see.
10. I have no idea if the proposed change is even valid as I am not 100% sure
if I understand the original intent of gp_resolve_item_override.
Please can any one help understand what the problem.
Thanks as always
Matt
