Could NOT find wxWidgets

[smanders]

From: Brigham Michaelis Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2019 11:51 AM Subject: Extern Pro issues

Hello, I am trying to get sling shot to build on a clean installation of centos 7. I am running into some issues.

The main issue seems to be that when cmake starts to build the project is queries for the wxwidgets library from usr/share/cmake rather than from /opt/extern/extern pro ….

Does anyone have any ideas as to what I can try to get this project to build?

Thanks Brigham

First, some questions:

• Did you build externpro yourself on CentOS 7?
• How did you install cmake? Where is it from? Did you use the rpm created by externpro and made available on hera C4ISR_Builds/externpro/cmake?

If you're using externpro 18.08.4 made available on hera C4ISR_Builds/externpro please be aware that this was built on CentOS 6. And currently we don't build VANTAGE on CentOS 7, so using a CentOS 6 build of externpro to build something on CentOS 7 is not really a supported scenario.

• In fact, one of the issues fixed in 18.08.4 was to deal with differences between CentOS 6 and 7... (so maybe we're kind of supporting it - but until we switch to CentOS 7 who knows how many things will pop up like this) https://github.com/smanders/externpro/issues/210
• Be aware that the latest release of externpro (18.11.1) now records the linux distribution it was built with and will display a developer warning if you're using an externpro built on a different linux distribution than the one you're developing on. https://github.com/smanders/externpro/issues/220

You state that

The main issue seems to be that when cmake starts to build the project is queries for the wxwidgets library from usr/share/cmake rather than from /opt/extern/extern pro ….

However, you need to realize that what you're seeing is the Call Stack and the calls to /usr/share/cmake is when the externpro use script calls find_package(wxWidgets REQUIRED ${wx_libs}) here https://github.com/smanders/externpro/blob/18.08.4/projects/use/usexp-wxwidgets-config.cmake#L43

Even though we no longer use wxWidgets_LIBRARIES from cmake's FindwxWidgets.cmake, that's what is failing for you. And I suspect it's the same issue that I used to get around with a cmake patch: https://github.com/smanders/externpro/issues/156#issuecomment-352126168

Once we stopped using wxWidgets_LIBRARIES I stopped applying the patch to newer versions of cmake (and I generally try to avoid patching cmake now because too many developers weren't installing the patched version of cmake)

And the version of externpro seems to work for a project I have

First, some questions:

• Did you build externpro yourself on CentOS 7?
• How did you install cmake? Where is it from? Did you use the rpm created by externpro and made available on hera C4ISR_Builds/externpro/cmake?

Hi Scott, Thanks for helping my with this.

In answer to your questions, I used and installed the cmake found in hera/c4isr_builds/extern/cmake

I also used the extern pro from the same hera directory. 18.08.4.gcc731.

Do you think I should try with a Centos6 installation?

[smanders]

If you look at the output from a successful run of cmake (above) and look at the entire Found wxWidgets line (which comes from cmake's FindwxWidgets.cmake) you'll see that the wxWidgets_LIBRARIES is the thing that's reported

-- Found wxWidgets: -L/home/smanders/extern/externpro-18.08.4-gcc731-64-Linux/lib;-pthread ...

and if you scroll to the end of this line you'll see libraries such as:

-lGL;-lGLU;-pthread;-lX11;-lXxf86vm;-lSM;-pthread;-lgtk-x11-2.0;-lgdk-x11-2.0;-latk-1.0;-lgio-2.0;-lpangoft2-1.0;-lpangocairo-1.0;-lgdk_pixbuf-2.0;-lcairo;-lpango-1.0;-lfreetype;-lfontconfig;-lgobject-2.0;-lgmodule-2.0;-lgthread-2.0;-lrt;-lglib-2.0

and I'm suspecting that perhaps these libraries aren't found on your "clean installation of centos 7"...

if you were to have built externpro yourself you would have seen that the cmake in wx.cmake looks for these packages https://github.com/smanders/externpro/blob/18.08.4/projects/wx.cmake#L26-L71

so perhaps the best thing would be to use externpro to discover dependencies that aren't on your system

$ git clone git://github.com/smanders/externpro.git
$ cd externpro/
$ git checkout 18.08.4
$ cd ..
$ mkdir bld
$ cd bld
$ cmake -DXP_STEP=build ../externpro

but also note that there's at least one required package that isn't yet detected https://github.com/smanders/externpro/blob/18.08.4/projects/wx.cmake#L27-L28

also note that GTK3 isn't available on CentOS 6, so if you continue to use the pre-built (for VANTAGE use) externpro you should not install GTK3 because the pre-built for CentOS 6 version of externpro was built with GTK2

the txt file in the root of an externpro installation records some of the details of the externpro build (note that they were built with GTK2 and that externpro 18.11.1 also records the linux distribution):

$ cat /opt/extern/externpro-18.08.4-gcc731-64-Linux/externpro_18.08.4-gcc731-64.txt

please confirm if my suspicion is correct that you don't have wx-required development packages installed

if these wx-required development packages are installed then we can consider modifying the installed /usr/share/cmake-3.12/Modules/FindwxWidgets.cmake, uncommenting the DBG_MSG_V macro so we can see why it's not finding the wxWidgets libraries...

I may add detecting and reporting of wx depedencies to the use script

• take or copy/enhance what's in projects/wx.cmake https://github.com/smanders/externpro/blob/19.06.1/projects/wx.cmake#L26-L71
• and put it in projects/use/usexp-wxwidgets-config.cmake https://github.com/smanders/externpro/blob/19.06.1/projects/use/usexp-wxwidgets-config.cmake

[smanders]

now that buildpro creates the official docker images used for building externpro for various distributions of linux

• CentOS 6: https://github.com/smanders/buildpro/blob/20.4/image/centos6-bld.dockerfile
• CentOS 7: https://github.com/smanders/buildpro/blob/20.4/image/centos7-bld.dockerfile

I'm less inclined to add a bunch of smarts to externpro that would have to take into account all the different distributions and their various package managers to detect and report dependencies

buildpro solves this issue IMHO
