Re: [Orbit-python-list] Problem with Mac OS X

[Neil T. <nt...@ea...>]

I think I solved this problem by adding "extern" to the definition of 
servant_base.  I have no idea if this is a proper fix, did not 
research the source code and have not tested it extensively.

But orbit-python does now work for accessing our GEAS server from 
python using our IDL.

Please check and see if this is the correct way to solve this problem.

Here is the diff.

Thank you.
