Make error

I am trying to install ice-py on my mac, i have successfully installed ice-cpp but when i try to make ice-py i receive this nasty error. Can anyone help me try to resolve this issue.

Thanks

Hi Brandon,

The simplest is to download and install the binary distribution available from http://www.zeroc.com/download.html#bin.

It includes support for Python.

Best regards,

Make error

The only problem is that I need the 3.3 version because i am trying to use OMERO which doesn't support Ice 3.4, is there a bin file of 3.3 that i can find?

Thanks,

and i need it to be 64-bit which the 3.3 on the site is only 32-bit

Hi,

The compilation error indicates that some headers are missing in this directory:

/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/include/python2.6

Can you check the content of this directory? If it's empty, it's likely that you have to install some additional packages with the Mac OS X system installer.

Cheers
Benoit.

Note that if you only communicate with Omero client and servers using the Ice protocol, you don't have to use the same Ice version that Omero uses. The Ice protocol is the same for all versions.

Thanks

Thanks guys for you input.

The header files were present in my python frameworks, so i copied them into the icepy source and recompiled and it finally worked. I dont know if there was a better way but i dont care haha because im finally done.

Thanks again

Hi Brandon,

if using MacPorts is an option, the attached Mac64Build.sh works for the OMERO team. Note: it's not tested on a fresh install so you may need to add other packages.

This script was developed based on the thread
Ice binary distribution for OS X 10.6? - ZeroC Forums which might also be helpful.

/tmp/IceBuild $ tar xzf Ice-3.3.1.tar.gz 
/tmp/IceBuild $ cd Ice-3.3.1
/tmp/IceBuild/Ice-3.3.1 $ unzip ../Mac64Build.zip 
Archive:  ../Mac64Build.zip
  inflating: Mac64Build.sh           
  inflating: Make.rules.Darwin       
/tmp/IceBuild/Ice-3.3.1 $ sudo sh Mac64Build.sh 
+ J=1
+ port install mcpp db46 python26
