This partially reverts (and fixes that part in a different way) commit
e4384459c9, which replaced
``/usr/bin/python'' with ``/usr/bin/env python'' in all examples or
scripts used during build to generate other files.
However, python bindings module is compiled and linked against a
specific python discovered or explicitly provided in configure phase.
Thus libvirt.py, which is generated and installed into the system,
should use the same python binary for which the module has been built.
The hunk in Makefile.am replaces $(srcdir) with $(PYTHON), which might
seem wrong but it is not. generator.py didn't use any of its command
line arguments so passing $(srcdir) to it was redundant.
libvirt.c and libvirt.h are auto-generated files. Mentioning their names
in *_SOURCES includes them in the distribution. During an out-of-tree
build these shipped files are included instead of the auto-generated
version, potentially breaking the build (as it happend in 0.8.0, because
the shipped libvirt.h was missing the declaration for
'libvirt_virDomainUpdateDeviceFlags')
Use the nodist_*_SOURCES automake variable instead.

The latter is not officially "wrong", but *is* terribly anachronistic.
I think automake documentation or comments call that syntax obsolescent.
* cfg.mk (_makefile_at_at_check_exceptions): Exempt @SCHEMADIR@
and @SYSCONFDIR@ uses -- there are no Makefile variables for those.

Commit 66137344fe changed the Python detection
mechanism in configure to use AM_PATH_PYTHON. This results in a changed
install location for the Python bindings, at least on Fedora 12 64bit systems.
Before this commit libvirt.py and libvirtmod.so were installed to
/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages
After this commit they are installed to
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages
Mixed Python packages (containing *.py and *.so files) should be installed to
the pyexecdir directory detected by AM_PATH_PYTHON.
This restores the install location from before the AM_PATH_PYTHON commit.
* configure.in: remove unnecessary pythondir export
* python/Makefile.am: switch from pythondir to pyexecdir
Using AM_PATH_PYTHON solves the site-packages directory problem. At least
in Ubuntu with Python 2.6 and later site-packages is renamed to dist-packages
and site-packages is not part of sys.path anymore. So installing the libvirt
Python bindings to site-packages renders them unusable, because they can be
imported from there without manually including site-packages into sys.path.
AM_PATH_PYTHON detects the correct site-packages/dist-packages directory.
python-config --includes gives the correct include path for the Python header
files. The old probing code stays there as fallback mechanism.
* configure.in: use AM_PATH_PYTHON and python-config
* python/Makefile.am: remove -I because PYTHON_INCLUDES contains it now
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Public API contract for
virStreamPtr object
* src/libvirt_public.syms: Export data stream APIs
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export internal helper APIs
* src/libvirt.c: Data stream API driver dispatch
* src/datatypes.h, src/datatypes.c: Internal helpers for virStreamPtr
object
* src/driver.h: Define internal driver API for streams
* .x-sc_avoid_write: Ignore src/libvirt.c because it trips
up on comments including write()
* python/Makefile.am: Add libvirt-override-virStream.py
* python/generator.py: Add rules for virStreamPtr class
* python/typewrappers.h, python/typewrappers.c: Wrapper
for virStreamPtr
* docs/libvirt-api.xml, docs/libvirt-refs.xml: Regenerate
with new APIs
* README: New file describing what each file is used for
* livvirt-override.c, libvirt-override.py, libvirt-override-api.xml,
libvirt-override-virConnect.py: Manually written code overriding
the generator
* typewrappers.c, typewrappers.h: Data type wrappers
* generator.py: Automatically pre-prend contents of libvirt-override.py
to generated libvirt.py. Output into libvirt.py directly instead of
libvirtclass.py. Don't generate libvirtclass.txt at all. Write C
files into libvirt.c/.h directly
* Makefile.am: Remove rule for creating libvirt.py from libvirt-override.py
and libvirtclass.py, since generator.py does it directly
python/libvir.py python/libvirt_wrap.h python/types.c:
adds support for events from the python bindings, also
improves the generator allowing to embbed per function
definition files, patch by Ben Guthro
* examples/domain-events/events-python/event-test.py: also
adds a programming example
Daniel
* python/libvir.c, python/libvir.py: Make Python aware that
the C bindings module is called cygvirtmod.dll when compiled
by CYGWIN.
* python/Makefile.am: Remove symlink libvirtmod.dll -> cygvirtmod.dll
no longer necessary because of the above.
* configure.in: Remove AM_CONDITIONAL(CYGWIN).
* configure.in: Added CYGWIN_EXTRA_LDFLAGS, CYGWIN_EXTRA_LIBADD,
CYGWIN_EXTRA_PYTHON_LIBADD, CYGWIN automake conditional.
* src/Makefile.am: Extra flags required to build DLL of libvirt
for Cygwin.
* python/Makefile.am: Extra flags and rule required to build
Python module for Cygwin.
* Makefile.am: Expand some "*" wildcards, and (for now) disable
the relatively unimportant, distuninstallcheck target.
Fix a few redirect-directly-to-target bugs.
Add a few $(srcdir)/ prefixes and add an uninstall-local rule.
* docs/Makefile.am: More of the same. Split some long lines.
* python/Makefile.am: Likewise.
* python/tests/Makefile.am: Likewise.
* qemud/Makefile.am: Likewise.
* tests/Makefile.am: Remove the directories already listed in SUBDIRS.
* docs/examples/index.py: Adapt to produce the desired changes in
docs/examples/Makefile.am. Also, sort *.c, so results are reproducible,
and emit a comment telling emacs and vi that the file is read-only.
* docs/examples/Makefile.am: Regenerate.
Author: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
* src/remote_internal.c, python/Makefile.am: Python bindings
fixed, and now building virConnect.getHostname and
virConnect.getURI. Fixed a problem which stopped
libvirt.py from being (re-)built. Rearranged
python/Makefile.am to make it cleaner and clearer.
* acinclude.m4: add LIBVIRT_COMPILE_WARNINGS, copied from
GNOME but with a few more flags we'd been using.
* configure.in: use that instead of setting CFLAGS
directly.
* proxy/Makefile.am, python/Makefile.am, qemud/Makefile.am,
src/Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am: use $(WARN_CFLAGS)
* python/Makefile.am python/generator.py python/libvir.c
python/libvir.py: improved python binding, raise exception
when an instance creation or lookup fails, and add support
for the global error handler, per conn handler still needed
* python/tests/error.py python/tests/Makefile.am: adding a
regression test
Daniel
version for python bindings, heavilly based on libxml2/libxslt
way of doing things, maybe this need to be revisited. Added packaging
too.
* src/hash.h: fixed the Copyright notice.
