Hi all,
Trying to enable support for OpenEXR in OpenSG2, I stumbled over the following
issues:
1) Setting OPENEXR_ROOT_DIR is not enough to find an OpenEXR installation in a
non-standard location:
Installing OpenEXR with a certain prefix creates the following directory layout:
OPENEXR_ROOT_DIR/include
OPENEXR_ROOT_DIR/include/OpenEXR
OPENEXR_ROOT_DIR/lib
...
The FindOpenEXR.cmake script, however, searches OPENEXR_ROOT_DIR/OpenEXR and
OPENEXR_ROOT_DIR/lib/__OPENEXR_LIBDIR_SUFFIX.
The patch includes the standard directories as well.
2) The FindOpenEXR.cmake script is distracted by globally installed OpenEXR
libraries:
In SLES 10, the OpenEXR package does not contain libIlmThread.so (which it
seems is needed by OpenSG2 OpenEXR support).
We cannot remove the OpenEXR-package due to package dependencies.
Setting OPENEXR_ROOT_DIR does not help, because cmake always prefers
system-libraries over the "PATHS" argument of FIND_LIBRARY.
I think is a sound assumption that when OPENEXR_ROOT_DIR has been explicitly
set by the user, he or she wants FindOpenEXR.cmake to ignore anything else.
The patch sets the "NO_DEFAULT_PATH" argument to FIND_LIBRARY, when
OPENEXR_ROOT_DIR has been set.
Do you think the following patch can be incorporated in OpenSG2?
Cheers,
Johannes
