This error occurred because of error in finding .extension files.
os.path.splitext(filename)[-1].lower() not in ext_whitelist: ### this line had bugs, failed to select files with extensions .so.x [.so.1 .so.2 .so.3.1] but worked on simple extensions only. like- .so .dll
Added a mechanism to remove this bug.
This reverts commit 33bd5cfcfb.
Installing the assimp library from setup.py is *not* a good idea as
it will break every packaging effort.
Besides, the original commit relies on an hard-coded path to find the
library that may not exist.
64-bit Compatibility:
The first four characters of a String material property would be cut
off. A String's length is defined in structs.py as a c_size_t
variable, which is 8 bytes wide on 64-bit Python. However, when an
aiString is used as an aiMaterial property in C/C++, the length is
truncated down to a 4-byte value on 64-bit machines (see
MaterialSystem.cpp aiMaterial::AddProperty() for details). A new
struct was declared in structs.py (MaterialPropertyString) and used
in core._get_properties().
Python 3.3 Compatibility:
The built-in function hasattr() changed in Python 3.2 to not
trap exceptions, which means a NULL pointer ValueException now
escaped when checking if a pointer was valid (hasattr(obj,
'contents') in core.call_init()) (see
http://bugs.python.org/issue9666 for details). A new helper
function was defined that preserves the legacy functionality of
trapping the exceptions (helper.hasattr_silent()) and used
throughout the code as a replacement for hasattr().
String objects would import as "bytes" rather than as a
string. This was most noticeable in the key names for
material properties, where the trailing ' of a bytes object
would remain after it was converted to a string. The
solution was to call decode() on the bytes object using
utf-8 decoding. This applies to various parts of core.py.
Closes#35
Totally rewrote pyassimp, removing all pyassimp classes, instead using python's dynamic nature to expand the ctypes structures to include safe array access and python style tuple access.
Updated helper.py and sample.py.
