setup.py build fails on macos at #include "ios"

[gsteele13]

Hi,

I'd love to get this board up and running and programming it in python.

I've been following the instructions in the readme for MacOS: https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/libsmu

I've installed the 10.14.6 framework, but I'm hitting my head on the wall on the python bindings. My first hurdle was port install libusb (I needed the c++ libusb it seems not the python one of same name...). Maybe an update of the instructions would help.

But now I still don't make it through compiling the python bindings:

Any hints?

Also, as a general comment: would it not be easier to somehow distribute the python binding pre-compiled? It is a lot to ask of a casual python programmer to have a full c build environment installed to install a package...

In an ideal world, a pip install pysmu would be awesome...

Thanks, Gary

Conda packages have been created: https://wiki.analog.com/university/tools/conda They include the python bindings and library.

[gsteele13]

fantastic! i'll give them a try. (it might be good to update readme in github page...)

[AlexandraTrifan]

We will soon update the README page to include Conda packages as well.

Conda packages are mentioned in the README page and the official wiki documentation: https://wiki.analog.com/university/tools/m1k/libsmu Closing this issue.
