Hi Ken,
2.95.3 is known to have problems with templates and exceptions, so this
isn't surprising. It's been awhile since I compiled OpenEXR with
2.95.3
so I'm not certain if these errors are reproducible, but I'll check it
out
sometime today if I can find a 2.95 install.
As long as the IlmImfTest tests pass, you should be OK using 2.95 for
the
parts of Iex and Imath that IlmImf (the actual "OpenEXR" part of the
libraries) uses.
And yeah, the tests expect to find the test files in their directories;
I'll try to fix that issue of a separate build dir in a subsequent
release. You can file a bug on this at Savannah if you wish so that I
don't forget.
By the way, we'll be releasing a Shake plugin very soon, hopefully
within
a week now that the 1.0.7 release is ready to go. (More on the 1.0.7
release later today.)

Hello, I just started doing some work with the OpenEXR libraries
and I am new to this list.
I have to build the libraries for different compiler versions
under redhat linux 7.3. Everything works fine using the default
gcc version 2.96, but unfortunately I have to use 2.95.1 for
shake. We cannot actually get the 2.95.1 compiler to compile,
so we are trying 2.95.3. The 1.0.7 libraries compile just fine
with only a couple of warnings. But running "make check" fails
running IexTest/testBaseExc.cpp. It also fails in ImathTest when
testing the exception handling there.
I searched the mailing list archives and saw that there were
some known issues using gcc 2.95. Is this one of them? Does
anybody know how to get exceptions working correctly using 2.95?
While on the topic of "make check" failing, I noticed that it fails
in IlmImfTest/testMagic.cpp if you configure and build the libraries
from a different directory. I assume this is because it cannot find
the test files. FYI.
Many thanks in advance.
