Hi Steve,
To solve the problem with proj_api.h you need to install PROJ4 (see
http://trac.osgeo.org/proj/) You will probably need to make PROJ4 from
source. I suggest creating a directory called proj at the same level as
tcl. Install the PROJ4 libarries into proj/use. You will need to rerun
the confiugure for nap and if you wathc it it should find proj4. You
will also need to have created netCDF and HDF libraries for nap to make
from source. These libraries should be inplace before you run the nap
configure. You can use a similar approach to them as for PROJ4.
Unfortunately there is a twist with the netCDF and HDF libraries because
there are name clashes at link time. These issues are not related to nap
but rather compatibility issues between netCDF and HDF.
If you follow the instructions in the NOTES file and use the config.sh
script to compile netCDF you should be OK.
If you are trying to build against Tcl/TK 8.5+ (see comments below about
interp in napImgNAO.c) there will be an issue requiring a minor code
modification to support changes to the Tk interface to photo images.
Finally the production of the documentation will probably blowup at the
end. Getting the documentation to generate properly requires all the
right applications on your system and some systems it is very difficult
to achieve.
Once you get it built you will find it quite powerfull but there is a
definite learning curve.
A couple of tips:
1. Generally be careful with spaces in Tcl
2. Remember that the Tcl parser has a go at the nap statements before
the nap parser so braces can get removed etc unless protected with
quotes.
3. Doing things like "set x [nap 3 + 5]" will not work properly, nap x
= 3 + 5 as well as assigning a pointer to the data object increment the
data object reference count and put a trace on x. If x is unset (unset
x) the reference count on the nao object is decremented and the object
deletes itself when the reference count is zero. If you use set thiongs
get deleted when they should nat and also get left around when they
should not.
If you have any further problems with making from source email the list
and hopefully I should be able to help. I am not sure what is going on
with version 6.2.2 but there can be library issues with different
version of Linux.
Cheers
Peter

Subject: [Tcl-nap-users] Trouble installing Nap
Hi, I'd like to try using Nap, but I'm having trouble installing it:
1.) There is no Linux i386 installer file downloadable for Nap 6.4.0
2.) I tried to build Nap 6.4.0 from source, but after running
configure, make gave the following error:
make: *** No rule to make target `proj_api.h', needed by `cart_proj.o'.
Stop.
3.) I tried to use the Linux i386 installer for nap version 6.2.2, but I
got the following error:
no files matched glob pattern
"/home/blacksqr/myinstall/applications/nap/include*"
while executing
"glob $dst/include*"
invoked from within
"if {$dst ne ""} {
if {$tcl_platform(machine) ne "ia64" } {
set include [file tail [lindex [glob $dst/include*] end]]
foreach dir "bin $include l..."
(file
"/home/blacksqr/download/nap6_2_2Linux_i386_install/lib/app-nap6_2_2Linu
x_i386_install/nap6_2_2Linux_i386_install.tcl"
line 64)
invoked from within
"source
/home/blacksqr/download/nap6_2_2Linux_i386_install/lib/app-nap6_2_2Linux
_i386_install/nap6_2_2Linux_i386_install.tcl"
("package ifneeded" script)
invoked from within
"package require app-nap6_2_2Linux_i386_install"

Any help that could be provided in overcoming these problems would be
greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
