swig language bindings need to be updated to the same version as swig

Component: ports Version: 1.9.2

Description

The swig 2.0.2 update has caused py26-pynifti to fail to install because swig-python was not also updated to 2.0.2:

python.swg is in fact in /opt/local/share/swig/2.0.1/python/python.swg. All swig language binding ports must be updated to a new version when swig itself is updated. A note was added to the swig port in r72490 that was supposed to remind us of this fact.

Breaks graphviz build too:

Yup, I'm sure it breaks everything that uses the swig language bindings.

Has duplicate #28540.

comment:7 Changed 14 years ago by macports@…

Ahh true, simply changing the version line on ports/devel/swig-python/Portfile to 2.0.2 and copying the swig Portfile checksums to the language binding makes it work and libplist is compiling nicely.

Thanks

I ran into this bug today. Took me a few hours to figure out what happened.

Not sure if this is worth trying, but I wonder if you can re-architect the packages so that bindings would go in swig/2.x/ instead of the literal swig/2.0.2. That way this wouldn't be needed each time, and you'd only have to bump some version number if there was a BC-breaking change.

I have *no* internal knowledge of how swig works so it's possible that this is a stupid suggestion, but thought I'd mention it. The php5 package seems to use some "extension" system that seems to allow them to vary some information independently from the extension package; this makes it easier to update the core package without having to "touch" every single extension, and is thus a bit less fragile from a maintenance perspective.

Just a though.

The swig and php5 packages are in identical situations. The swig language bindings need to be updated to the same version as swig when the swig version number increases, just as the bundled php5 extensions need to have their versions updated to the same version as php5 when its version increases. This is simply one of the responsibilities of maintaining swig and php5.

I would hesitate to second-guess the developers of swig about how their software works by changing their paths. Presumably there is a good reason why the full version number is used.

With all latest updates it is still broken for swig 2.0.4.

sutasu, please remember to use WikiFormatting and to preview before submitting. But note that this ticket is about problems that occur when swig is updated but its language bindings ports aren't. That problem was resolved 6 months ago and this ticket was closed as fixed. If you are now experiencing a new issue, please file a new ticket.
