waf?

[mhoffman]

Hello,

I finally came around to give fwrap a try. Now when I try the
testsuite yesterday all tests failed, because it misses fwrap/waf.
Worse, I could not reach the waf website http://code.google.com/p/waf/
yesterday. Could it be worth mentioning this requirement in the
README.txt? Is waf the cool new scons/make etc.? Have I been living
under a stone?
Now waf complains that all wscript files are unreadable. Do I need a
certain version of waf? Can someone elucidate?

Btw.: I am really looking forward to fwrap.

So long,
Max.

There is no guarantee that the docs are up-to-date in the latest development trunk.  Thanks for trying things out.  Yes, fwrap's build system has been moved to waf [0] (with many resulting improvements), and waf will be distributed with fwrap's releases.  Fwrap uses the latest svn trunk version of waf [1].  It's certainly worth mentioning in the README; I'll do so soon.

I'm not sure about the error -- could you paste the actual error that you're getting?

Thanks :-)

Thanks,

this helped a little. I checked out waf and ran

./waf-light --tools=compat15,swig,fc,compiler_fc,fc_config,fc_scan,gfortran,g95,ifort,gccdeps;
cp waf ../fwrap/fwrap

then I also needed to put fwrapper.py in my PATH. waf seems
interesting but unfortunately I am all but familiar with it. Now only
19/28 tests fail . I think all of them with

name error np

like so:
======================================================================
ERROR: compiling and running old_decl.f90

and sure enough on that line 22 I find np.import_array() without a
previous import statement.

Btw. I am using Ubuntu 10.10. What can I do about it?

Best,
Max.
