This involved getting SSL compiled from sources first, ensuring
it is a static library placement independent code. Configuration
is based on what Debian is using. CFlags required to have own
configuration file, which i didn't find a better place that next
to the corresponding CMake file.
It is OpenSSL btw.
It is set to Python via --with-openssl= configuration argument.
This works fine in a clean chroot, but having libssl-dev installed
might make Python to prefer system wide library, This was worked
around by using libssl_pic.a name for the library and modifying
setup.py. Would be cool to ensure system wide libraries are not
a problem, but official release builder is safe against this,
since it will catch possible non-static dependencies.
There is also a new map file which shadows bunch of Python
symbols. Without this Python's shared libraries might bring
conflicting symbols to Blender namespace at runtime.
Hopefully this doesn't break other platforms.
-No more hardcoded python35/36 tokens in the scripts
-disabled python module for boost, was not used
-Updated patches for python to support building with msvc2013
We stop using the .zip file and just have all files now in
lib/darwin/python/lib, along with numpy, numpy headers and requests.
This makes it consistent with Linux and simplifies code.
For old libraries the .zip stays, code for that gets removed when we
fully switch to new libraries.
Note these are intended for platform maintainers, we do not intend to
support users making their own builds with these. For that precompiled
libraries from lib/ should be used.
Implemented by Martijn Berger, Ray Molenkamp and Brecht Van Lommel.
