I have successfully installed Emscripten and run it on a Ubuntu 16.04 virtual machine . I also successfully converted the helloworld.c file to a web assembly. I am currently trying to convert python to a web assembly with emscripten. The problem is that emscripten does not support python at the moment, so when I work, I tried to convert Python code to C with Cython, which I successfully made. Although I am trying to convert a cython c file to a Web assembly. Here is the console log:
$emcc pony_gp.c -o pony_gp.html
In file included from pony_gp.c:11:
In file included from /usr/include/python2.7/Python.h:58:
/usr/include/python2.7/pyport.h:886:2: error: "LONG_BIT definition appears
wrong for platform (bad gcc/glibc config?)."
ERROR:root:compiler frontend failed to generate LLVM bitcode, halting
According to pyport.h, this error occurs because on some 32-bit systems, LONG_BIT is incorrectly defined as 64 when it should be 32. I tried to comment on this line, but this only allowed the program to work quietly in the end without creating any code web builds, html and javascript only.
I read here that the problem is that "cmake picks up one version of python dylib and a separate version of python for headers." This makes sense since I recently abandoned Python 2.7.13-1 to Python 2.7.11-1 because Python 2.7.13-1 was not compatible with python-dev packages. Although, I do not know how to fix it.
Does anyone have an idea what to do?
