[lucy-user] Where did the header files go?

So I was looking to resume development/feature enhancements on my golang
<-> lucy bindings and thought I would also use a more recent version of
lucy. Man it seems like things have changed quite a bit. I was
previously able to go into lucy/c and ./configure && make &&
./install.sh --prefix TARGET and get the libraries and header files
installed. That doesn't seem to be the case anymore. So my question for
the list is, how do I go about installing the library and the header
files for client development?

Thanks,

Thanks Nick, that got me pointed in the right direction.

Hi Philip,

We made two changes lately which affect C client development.

1. Clownfish is a separate product now

You have to clone the clownfish source from the new repo:

     git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/lucy-clownfish.git

Then you can build and install like this:

     cd clownfish/runtime/c
     ./configure
     make
     ./install.sh --prefix $lucy_prefix

Then you can build Lucy. There isn't a easy way to specify the location of 
Clownfish yet. If you installed into /usr/local, everything should work. 
Otherwise you have to set some environment variables for now:

     export PATH=$lucy_prefix/bin:$PATH
     export LIBRARY_PATH=$lucy_prefix/lib
     export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$lucy_prefix/lib
     export CLOWNFISH_INCLUDE=$lucy_prefix/share/clownfish/include

Then build and install Lucy:

     cd lucy/c
     ./configure
     make
     ./install.sh --prefix $lucy_prefix

2. The C headers aren't installed any more

We only install the command-line Clownfish compiler 'cfc' and the Clownfish 
headers now. These can be used to generate the C headers. Assuming you still 
have the environment variables from above set, you have to run:

     cfc --dest=autogen

This will create the C headers in the directory 'autogen/include'.

Hope this helps,
Nick

Hi Philip,

Yes, lots of code churn lately. Clownfish has been split into its own 
repository, among other things. Marvin and/or Nick can give better 
details than I can; I'm only watching from a respectful distance at this 
stage.

This thread might help: http://markmail.org/message/mr6apvmzjkp5kutf

If you're doing development on Lucy you should probably subscribe 
yourself to dev@lucy.apache.org where a lot of this churn has been 
discussed lately.
