Error building in OS X / SWIG syntax error #42

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Running 'python setup.py build' on my system, I receive the error:
~~
swigging Box2D/Box2D.i to Box2D/Box2D_wrap.cpp
swig -python -c++ -IBox2D -small -O -includeall -ignoremissing -w201 -globals 
b2Globals -outdir library/Box2D -keyword -w511 -D_SWIG_KWARGS -o 
Box2D/Box2D_wrap.cpp Box2D/Box2D.i
Box2D/Box2D_dir.i:49: Error: Syntax error in input(1).
error: command 'swig' failed with exit status 1

I'm running the current SVN checkout on the most recent version of OSX.

I am using Macports Python 2.6.6 with Macports Swig

And I made a typo: that title should read "OSX" not "OSC".

The old SWIG version is most definitely the issue. Please upgrade and let me 
know your results.

Thanks for the fast reply!

Macports Swig is 2.0.4, which is the most recent version. However I'll try 
installing it from the normal download and see if that helps.

Sorry, perhaps I did dismiss your issue a bit too quickly. SWIG 2.0.4, as you 
say, is the most recent version. However, I have tested that version on win32 
with no issue (and just re-tested to make sure).

I can't understand how SWIG's parsing algorithms could differ on each platform.

FWIW: I was able to route around this problem by switching from MacPorts to 
system python.

Can you tell me if the SWIG the two versions executed were different? Or were 
there different command line arguments passed to SWIG in MacPorts Python versus 
System Python? A full build log from each would be helpful.

I'm running Swig 1.3.31. I didn't save the build log so am not sure what flags 
were used.

I thought you meant you were using SWIG 2.0.4? If not, some 1.3.x versions are 
known to cause this syntax error issue, and that would make this a duplicate of 
issue 40, as you mentioned.
