I decided to give russimp-sys a try on clean Mac environment and encountered lots of small build issues. Solving ones could potentially make life a bit easier.
So I’ve include the sys crate in my project and got this error
--- stderr
wrapper.h:1:10: fatal error: 'assimp/aabb.h' file not found
thread 'main' panicked at 'called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: ClangDiagnostic("wrapper.h:1:10: fatal error: 'assimp/aabb.h' file not found\n")', /Users/mxpv/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-6f17d22bba15001f/russimp-sys-2.0.0/build.rs:181:10
Apparently assimp headers must be included even when not building from source.
536fa43 Includes headers in the crate package, so it no longer fails.
After the fix above, I started seeing linker problems (on MacOS)
= note: ld: library 'assimp' not found
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
So I ran brew install assimp, but that did not help.
Looks like the build script doesn’t take into account brew directories,
4537f5d adds brew to search paths.
and lastly ZLib.
zlib feature is enabled by default, but it makes sense only when building from source code, which is disabled by default. If we’re not building from source, we should expect zlib to exist (same as assimp).
I confirmed this to work on both Intel and M1 macs (with just brew install assimp as prerequisite).
