Henry Robinson updated ZOOKEEPER-420:
-------------------------------------

    Attachment: ZOOKEEPER-420.patch

Here's a patch which fixes some of the issues with testing.

1. compiling the extension now looks for C libraries in src/c/.libs before 
/usr/local/lib, so should be able to link without having installed the C 
libraries (but they must still have been built, and I still don't know if 
there's an ant target I should depend on for that)
2. Running the tests now adds build/contrib/zkpython/[libdir] to PYTHONPATH, so 
zookeeper.so will get picked up there if it exists.
3. Similarly, src/c/.libs gets added to both LD_LIBRARY_PATH and 
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH (mac os equivalent) when the tests are run, so 'import 
zookeeper' should succeed. 

I'm looking into how to bundle a C library with a Python egg so that zkpython 
is distributable standalone. This is a separate issue, though. 


> build/test should not require install in zkpython

> Currently you cannot just build and test the zkpython contrib, you need to 
> actually install the zookeeper client c library as well
> as the zkpython lib itself.
> There really needs to be 2 steps:
> 1) build/test zkpython "encapsulated" within the src repository, there should 
> be no requirement to actually install anything
> (this is esp the case for automated processes and for review by PMC during 
> release time for example)
> 2) build an egg that can be distributed/installed by end user
