Hello everybody,
I am still messing with vos on the Mac, this time playing with omnivos.
I found out after a while that I can start omnivos like this:
vos/apps/omnivos$ ./omnivos -n -c 3dworld-blocks.xod
and it started up somehow doing a few things, but the logfile indicates:
[Wed Mar 29 14:09:08 2006 (3) vosplugin] Searching for plugins/.libs/
libomniplg_search
[Wed Mar 29 14:09:08 2006 (3) vosplugin] Searching for plugins/.libs/
libomniplg_search.bundle
[Wed Mar 29 14:09:08 2006 (3) vosplugin] Searching for plugins/
libomniplg_search
[Wed Mar 29 14:09:08 2006 (3) vosplugin] Searching for plugins/
libomniplg_search.bundle
[Wed Mar 29 14:09:08 2006 (1) vosapp] Caught exception initializing
plugin search: Could not load plugin "libomniplg_search" (check your
search path) Error creating file image
and so on for all the other plugins. Indeed, looking into
plugins/.libs I found only a bunch of .so files! I then tried the
"installed" omnivos at vos/inplace/bin, but the plugin dir there is
*empty*!
I found the reason for the latter after trying make again, it goes like:
Making all in plugins
for lib in .libs/.so* .libs/.*dylib .libs/*.dll ; do \
which is clearly wrong, having the wildcards in those strange places,
and not handling *.bundle at all. I tried autoreconf, but the problem
persisted. Oh well... autotools...
Next thing was a manual fix, creating a .bundle symbolic link for
every .so in plugin/.libs.
Now omnivos loaded the plugins, but obviously something is still
wrong. I inspected the
the sector vobject "world" with mesh, ad it had all the correct types:
vip://alu.mi.fu-berlin.de:4231/world> types
a3dl:sector
misc:factory.compound
misc:talkative
BUT it does not have the expected children associated with them, e.g.
misc:talkative is missing. Only the default geometry hildren are
present, i.e. Plane, 3 cubes, 3 lamps, default-viewpoint.
(btw. the YellowCube is calles MagentaCube too :-) Checking vip://
interreality.org/world in contrast, which is assumedly hosted by just
the same omnivos configuration (?), does have the missing children...
Heeeeelp! :-)
