PyCharm, python framework builds, and Mac OSX
I have been fighting with PyCharm on my OSX machine for a while, trying to understand why it can't find some things in mpl_toolkits. I have pretty well decided that the problem is that something went wrong with the matplotlib build in the default python interpreter that PyCharm uses. This is a Mac "framework" build located in /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework.
I have tried to solve this in two ways. First, I made sure that I had another working python interpreter -- able to deal with mpl_toolkits with no problem -- and then pointed PyCharm to it instead of to the default interpreter. When I do that, PyCharm can't even use matplotlib, let alone mpl_toolkits, because -- as it tells me -- I am not using a "framework build". Second, I tried to monkey with the default build and re-build matlotlib within it. Can't do it because the system won't let me touch it even if I am running under sudo.
So, I either need to
- create my own "framework build" of python or
- figure out how to get around the system prohibitions and re-install matplotlib in the existing "framework build".
I have looked around on the internet and can't find much on how to do 1. Can't find anything on how to do 2, and it seems kind of dangerous anyway.
Does anyone know how to do either of these?
Anyone have another approach that might work?
