Because we need to know the FFTW vendor pretty early (at precompile
time to generate code, and at runtime) we need to load the path during
build (which bakes it into the precompile image), however we need to
update that path on next load within
__init__()
in case we're a partof PackageCompiler and we need to be able to move things around without
requiring a recompile. So we change all accesses of
libfftw3{,f}
tobe through a
Ref{String}()
, then update that ref within__init__()
.In the future, accesses of
FFTW_jll.libfftw3
will be through afunction, rather than a direct variable access, and we'll be able to get
these things for free, but that's still a ways down the line.
