My team at the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (http://plato.stanford.edu/
), which relies on Mac OS X, Python and Lucene for its indexing engine
("indexer.py") has discovered that our script has broken in moving to
10.5, though we have attempted to use both the /Library/Python/2.5/
site-packages/lucene-2.2.0-py2.5-macosx-10.5-i386.egg and .../
lucene-2.4.0_649619-py2.5-macosx-10.5-i386.egg. We realize that
PyLucene built with GCJ is deprecated, and so one group in my team is
working to bring our original python script into line with the new
PyLucene compiled with JCC (e.g., replacing "PyLucene" with "lucene"
and elminating the call to JavaJM, etc.).
Meanwhile, I am attempting to determine whether we can get GCJ-
based PyLucene compiled on our Mac OS X 10.5.2 box with Python 2.5,
and with gcc-4.2.0/gcj and PyLucene-src-2.2.0-1, so that we might use
our current python script, if need be. I have now *successfully*
compiled Pylucene-src-2.2.0-1 along with gcc-4.2.0/gcj in various tmp
directories on one of our Intel Macs running 10.5 (all of the
gcc-4.2.0 was installed in ~root/bin/test/gcc-4.2.0, and PyLucene,
though compiled in /tmp/ was then put into /Library/Python/2.5/site-
packages. However, a "make test" yields the following error, which may
be known:
501# make test
cd samples/LuceneInAction; /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/
Versions/2.5/bin/python index.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "index.py", line 7, in <module>

common/TestDataDocumentHandler.py", line 26, in <module>

ImportError: dlopen(/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/_PyLucene.so,

Referenced from: /var/root/bin/test/gcc-4.2.0/lib/libgcj.8.dylib
Expected in: flat namespace
make: *** [samples/LuceneInAction/index] Error 1
We also get this error if we ignore the above and try to run the
python indexing script we built for the encyclopedia.
If this is a known error, could someone please tell me which files
need to be modified so that we can make use of our current python
script? I've seen on the web that the error has something to do with
#include <crt_externs.h>
#define environ *_NSGetEnviron();
but I don't know which file this is suppose to be in.
Thanks very much for any help you can give me.
Yours,
Ed
