"""
main.py -- the initial startup file for NanoEngineer-1, treated specially
by the release-building process.
$Id$
This file should not be imported as the "main" module -- doing so
prints a warning [as of 050902] and doesn't run the contained code.
If necessary, it can be imported as the __main__ module
from within the NE1 process it starts, by "import __main__".
Such an import doesn't rerun the contained code -- only reload(__main__)
would do that, and that should not be done.
Depending on the details of the package building process,
this file might be renamed and/or moved to a different directory
from the other modules under cad/src. As of 050902, it's always
moved to a different directory (by package building on any platform),
and this is detected at runtime (using __main__.__file__) as a way
of distinguishing end-user runs from developer runs [by code now
located somewhere inside the startup package, as of 071008].
When an end-user runs the NE1 application, OS-dependent code somehow
starts the right python interpreter and has it execute this file
(possibly passing command-line arguments, but that might not be implemented
yet).
Developers running NE1 from svn can run this script using a command line
like "python main.py" or "pythonw main.py", depending on the Python
installation. Some Python or Qt installations require that the absolute
pathname of main.py be used, but the current directory should always be
the one containing this file, when it's run manually in this way.
This file then imports and starts everything else, via
the function startup_script defined in main_startup.py.
As of 041217 everything runs in one OS process,
except for occasional temporary subprocesses it might start.
History:
mostly unrecorded, except in cvs/svn; originally by Josh; lots of
changes by various developers at various times.
renamed from atom.py to main.py before release of A9, mid-2007.
bruce 070704 moved most of this file into main_startup.py.
bruce 071008 moved a long comment into a new file
ne1_startup/ALTERNATE_CAD_SRC_PATH-doc.txt,
and enclosed our own startup code into def _start_NE1().
"""
