Revision 830, 1.1 KB (checked in by dokai, 3 years ago)

Build rpath info into the extension so that we don't need to play with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

If you are updating from a previous version of the buildout, you need to
remove the old 'build' directory to ensure the extension gets build again.

23Developing
24----------
25
26The Rtree code is under ``src/Rtree``. It is installed as a
27development egg so any changes made to the source code are immediately
28available for use.
29
30There is a python interpreter available under::
31
32  $ ./bin/python
33
34that has Rtree available for importing and use.
35
36The spatialindex C++ library is also included in the buildout at
37``src/tools`` and ``src/spatialindex`` which the Rtree python package
38uses internally.

41If you're using multiple zc.buildout based buildouts for your
42development, you may wish to share the downloaded eggs and tarballs
43among them to save disk space. To do this create a file::
44
45  ~/.buildout/default.cfg
46
47and put the following there::
48
49  [buildout]
50  eggs = /path/to/shared/egg/container
51  download-directory = /path/to/shared/package/container
