build fails with unknown CMake option

[st-bender]

Hi, Installing the package from pypi does not work, pip fails with some obscure message. Using a local clone, pip install . failed with -j as an unknown option to cmake, which needs a double dash before that. Thus, the following patch to setup.py fixes at least the local builds, it may also fix the pypi install:

diff --git a/setup.py b/setup.py
index 8a156d6..524ea5d 100644
--- a/setup.py
+++ b/setup.py
@@ -58,7 +58,7 @@ def cmake_setup():

-    subprocess.check_call(['cmake', '--build', str(BINDIR), '-j'])
+    subprocess.check_call(['cmake', '--build', str(BINDIR), '--', '-j'])

Cheers.

I can confirm that this was an issue for me and the solution st-bender posted fixed it.

This has been reworked in the iri2016/build.py, that autobuilds on first run rather than setup.py. This is to avoid putting executable code in setup.py and to make the package setup-platform agnostic.
