Description
Currently, the way that CMake creates the library files always generates .dylib files on Mac. Compilation will work fine, but attempting to import in any Python app will cause the import to fail, as the interpreter expects .so files for library files.
For some reason, using the flag
--cmake-args " -DCMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SUFFIX=.so"
does not fix the issue. Additionally, setting the variable before the project() line in the CMakeLists also remains inneffective. So, the workaround is to add
set(CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SUFFIX .so)
right after the project() line.
@Mergifyio backports 2.1.x
Fixes #206
