emccanon function signature changed causing error message

[c-morley]

recent master

running sim/qtdragon/qtdragon_probe_tool/tdragon_auto_tool_probe.ini
causes an error message when loading chips.ngc:

G-Code error in 3D_Chips.ngc
Near line 0 of
/home/chris/linuxcnc/nc_files/examples/3D_Chips.ngc
M6/change_epilog: Python argument types in
emccanon.CHANGE_TOOL(int)
did not match C++ signature:
CHANGE_TOOL(void)

This config uses remap of m6

ok this is caused because I have an installed version of linuxcnc that is 2.9 based.
My sim INI uses paths like: ~/linuxcnc/nc_files/examples/remap_lib
I do this so that in an installed version the sim actually works.

Any idea how to best handle the need for different paths for RIP vrs installed versions?

Hi Chris, In ~/linuxcnc-dev/scripts/rip-environment At the very top is a CASE statement as follows: ```` 27 case "$0" in 28 rip-environment|*/rip-environment) 29 as_command=true 30 if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then 31 cat <<-EOF 32 This script can be used in one of two ways. 33 34 It can be loaded in the context of your shell, by executing 35 . $0 36 after this, commands like 'linuxcnc', 'halrun' and so on refer to the 37 version in this directory, instead of to an installed version of 38 linuxcnc (if any) 39 40 Second, it can be used to run a command in this directory without 41 modifying the environment of the calling shell: 42 $0 command... 43 such as 44 $0 halrun foo.hal 45 $0 linuxcnc configs/.../foo.ini 46 EOF 47 exit 1 48 fi ;; 49 *) as_command=false 50 esac ```` I’d suggest creating a variable to support the RIP environment or something along those lines.
