Problem Compiling SOFA with Python3

[Jambouli]

Hello Everyone,

I started using SOFA with Python3 some weeks ago and after I’ve had some troubles I managed to compile it. Now I experimented a bit with other versions and ended up deleting the version I was currently using (current master branch). I tried to reinstall it, but I keep getting the following error message, when compiling the Python3 plugin:

Does anyone have an idea what the problem might be?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

Hey @jacqueline,

Yeah you got it at a bad time, there was a change made in SOFA a couple of days ago and not propagated to SofaPython3. We merge the fix in SofaPython3 yesterday morning.

It should be fine now, simply git pull the SofaPython3 repository.

Hi @jnbrunet,

thank you very much for your response. I pulled the latest version of the SofaPython3 repository, but now I get an error message from cmake when I try to configure (or generate) the cmake file.

Do you know what I have done wrong?

Update: I cloned the SofaPython3 repository manually (instead of using the fetch option, which is listed in cmake) and added the path to SOFA_EXTERNAL_DIRECTORIES and now it works.

Thank you for your help!

Hey @jacqueline,

Awesome. We will now investigate your error with the fetch option, this isn’t normal and looks like a bug, thank you for reporting it.

Hi @jacqueline,

There is indeed a bug in SOFA, thank you for spotting it!
I opened a pull-request to fix it, it should be merged in the next days.

In the meantime, you can apply the fix on your SOFA by using this patch.

Cheers,
Guillaume.
