Hi, I believe "Building STAF Python Support" section in STAF Developer's Guide is incomplete: http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/stafdg.html#Header_buildPython
I could only build STAF Python support with following environment settings (not just the ones listed above document): # For building Python support # OpenSolaris 2009.06, Sun CC 5.10, STAF 3.4.2, Python 2.7 #export PROJECTS=python export PYTHON_ROOT=/stow/python-2.7 export PYTHON_INCLUDEDIRS=$PYTHON_ROOT/include/python2.7 export PYTHON_LIBDIRS=$PYTHON_ROOT/lib export PYTHON_LIBS=python2.7 export PYTHON_BUILD_V22=0 export PYTHON_BUILD_V23=0 export PYTHON_BUILD_V24=0 export PYTHON_BUILD_V25=0 export PYTHON_BUILD_V26=1 export PYTHON_V26_ROOT=$PYTHON_ROOT export PYTHON_V26_INCLUDEDIRS=$PYTHON_INCLUDEDIRS export PYTHON_V26_LIBDIRS=$PYTHON_LIBDIRS export PYTHON_V26_LIBS=$PYTHON_LIBS In addition, TestPython.py reports following errors (which was also reported on 4 Feb 2010): $ python TestPython.py |grep ERROR ERROR: removePrivacyDelimiters(!...@^^!!@a...@!!^^!!@b...@!!, 1) != ^...@a@!!...@b@!! ERROR: removePrivacyDelimiters(!...@^^!!@a...@!!^^!!@b...@!!, 0) != ^...@a@!!...@b@!! ERROR: removePrivacyDelimiters(!...@^@!!a...@b^@!!, 1) != @!!...@b@!! ERROR: removePrivacyDelimiters(!...@^@!!a...@b^@!!, 0) != @!!...@b@!! *** ERROR: 4 tests failed *** I have following questions/requests to STAF development team: a) Could Python 2.7 support be added and made as the default Python version to use instead of 2.2? Most new Python development activity will use 2.7 or 3.1 branches. b) Can the documentation of STAF be updated (regarding Python support)? c) If errors reported by TestPython.py are not genuine, can they be disabled in the source tree? It is confusing for STAF users. d) Lastly, is there any plan to support Python STAF services? (That is being able to write STAF services in Python). Has anyone attempted this in the past? Is there any code fragments available from the STAF community?
