Re: [PyOpenGL-Users] Solaris: need files please

[Toby W. <tw...@sh...>]

Hi Rene,

I already read that message and recompiled Python using '-Wl -G' instead 
of '-shared' (note I had to remove the comma after -Wl because it 
wouldn't compile with it). Unfortunately it made no difference :(.

I tried to compile PyOpenGL under Cygwin at home last night to see what 
files are built but my hard drive decided it was time to retire so it'll 
be a while before I'm set up to try again.

Can you please confirm with me if I have all the files I should or some 
are missing? Then I'll know if it's Python's fault or compiling PyOpenGL 
that's failing. Important (I guess) files I end up with include:

.../OpenGL/:
-> __init__.py, GLE.so, GLUT.so, ... (no GL.so or GLU.so)
.../OpenGL/GL:
-> __init___.so, ... (no __init__.py or GL.so)
.../OpenGL/GLU:
-> __init___.so, ... (no __init__.py or GLU.so)
.../OpenGL/GLX:
-> __init__.py, ...
.../OpenGL/Tk:
-> __init__.py, ...

Thanks in advance,

Toby
