Hi all,
I'm having a bit of a hard time trying to follow the
nomenclature/installation standards in effect on OpenSG 2.0 (revision 1684).
First, the install directory for libs differ on Windows and Linux. On Linux
the Release libs go to "lib", the Debug libs go to "lib/debug" and the
DebugRT libs go to "lib/debugrt". On Windows the libs go to "lib/opt",
"lib/dbg" and "lib/debugrt", respectively.
Second, I think it's a bit problematic to have both the Release and Debug
libs with the same name. It would be preferable to have the libs in the same
dir with different suffixes, so we wouldn't need to update any environment
variable (PATH/LD_LIBRARY_PATH) to switch between the Debug and Release
version of our applications.
Hmmm I noticed that the DebugRT libs get a "_d" suffix, maybe we should be
using DebugRT instead of Debug?
Finally, with this platform disparity, the distributed "FindOpenSG.cmake"
only works on Linux.
So, is it in your plans to standardize lib locations throughout platforms
(or at least fix FindOpenSG.cmake)?
PS: do you have plans to add support for "make package"? It's quite easy if
"make install" is already working.
PS2: I also think it's wierd that ${OSG_LIBDIR_SUFFIX} affects the lib
install dir only on Linux and not on Windows. This part of the code seems a
bit messy in the CMake files.
Thanks,
Thiago
