I am glad you got this to work, but I always feel it is a tricky business to use ccmake to set variables because of caching issues (as indicated by all the retries that were necessary). To make life simpler, why not set the ADA environment variable like I suggested (e.g., in this case to /usr/local/ada-4.3/bin/gcc)? That should automatically give you GNAT_EXECUTABLE_BUILDER as a bonus. I also suggest you set the CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable so that GNAT_LIB will automatically be found. In sum, use the environment variables (I have a file that sets this up for me in my case) to make life easy. > I can't get the ADA examples to work though, it looks like the library > dependencies are not properly specified: > > otool -L ./x01a > ./x01a: > libplplotadad.0.0.0.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current > version 0.0.0) > /Users/hbabcock/Documents/OpenSource/PLplot/plplot-CBS-3/src/ > libplplotd.9.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0) > /usr/local/lib/libltdl.3.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0, current > version 5.4.0) > /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current > version 88.1.10) > /Users/hbabcock/Documents/OpenSource/PLplot/plplot-CBS-3/lib/ > csa/libcsirocsa.0.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0) > /Users/hbabcock/Documents/OpenSource/PLplot/plplot-CBS-3/lib/ > nn/libcsironn.0.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0) > /usr/local/lib/libqhull.5.dylib (compatibility version 6.0.0, current > version 6.0.0) > libgnat-4.3.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version > 0.0.0) > /usr/local/ada-4.3/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, > current version 1.0.0) > > otool -L libplplotadad.dylib > libplplotadad.dylib: > libplplotadad.0.0.0.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current > version 0.0.0) > /Users/hbabcock/Documents/OpenSource/PLplot/plplot-CBS-3/src/ > libplplotd.9.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0) > libgnat-4.3.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version > 0.0.0) > /usr/local/lib/libltdl.3.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0, current > version 5.4.0) > /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current > version 88.1.10) > /Users/hbabcock/Documents/OpenSource/PLplot/plplot-CBS-3/lib/ > csa/libcsirocsa.0.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0) > /Users/hbabcock/Documents/OpenSource/PLplot/plplot-CBS-3/lib/ > nn/libcsironn.0.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0) > /usr/local/lib/libqhull.5.dylib (compatibility version 6.0.0, current > version 6.0.0) > /usr/local/ada-4.3/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, > current version 1.0.0) > > Note that there is no path for libplplotadad.0.0.0.dylib and > libgnat-4.3.dylib. One issue is the internal library libplplotd is found in the build tree at run time, but not the internal library libplplotadad. So look for some difference in their build options and fix it. (You can also work around the issue by setting the Mac OS X equivalent of LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but I would prefer you to do the fix.) A different issue is the external library libgnat-4.3.dylib is not found at run time. For that case, you are going to have to set the Mac OS X equivalent of LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/local/ada-4.3/lib/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin8/4.3.0/adalib/ so that external library will be found at run time. > > Also libplplotadad is not being copied to /usr/local/bin upon running "make > install". Excluding installation was intended in the old days when our Ada interface had not settled down yet, but now that it is more stabilized, I invite any interested volunteer to implement the installation for libplplotadad (dead easy), configure the pkg-config file for libplplotadad (more difficult), and implement the example installation and installed examples build (more difficult). The reason why I am calling for volunteers is I am pretty tied up this summer with research, and it would be a good CMake learning experience for said volunteer to follow (say) how we configure the pkg-config file for our C++ library, and set up the install build for the C++ examples, then follow through by analogy for the Ada case. CMake is really pretty easy to understand (I started with zero knowledge and no CMake-based build system a year ago) so it really is only a matter of confidence to dive right in and deal with build issues that come up.
