Golang Bindings Error

[mbaxamb3333]

I would like to start by saying a big thank you for all the work that you put into maintaining and developing this project.
My issue is with regards to the golang bindings.
As I try to initialise the model, I get the following error.

../go/pkg/mod/github.com/ggerganov/whisper.cpp/bindings/[email protected]/params.go:11:10: fatal error: 'whisper.h' file not found
#include <whisper.h>

Does anyone has any idea why this might happen?

[mbaxamb3333]

The same thing happens when I try to run the whisper_test file.

When I run the tests from the make file everything works fine, whilst when I run the package test, it fails with the error above

I believe this has been resolved at some point.
Feel free to reopen if problem persists

*mbaxamb3333* This typically means you need to tell the go compiler where your whisper.cpp files are located. Try setting these environment variables export CGO_CFLAGS=-I/path/to/whisper.cpp/ export CGO_LDFLAGS=-L/path/to//whisper.cpp/

@jaybinks Do we not have to tell compiler to look into the include/ subdirectory in whisper.cpp

@ggerganov
INCLUDE_PATH and LIBRARY_PATH in bindings/go/Makefile refer to the parent folder, but the whisper.h file and ggml.h files are in whisper.cpp/include/ and whisper.cpp/ggml/include folders respectively.

Isn't that why the missing .h file error pops up. Do we need to update the Makefile? Or copy the .h files to parent dir.

fatal error: 'whisper.h' file not found
#include <whisper.h>

What am I missing here?

[ggerganov]

Yes, likely caused by the recent #2256. Feel free to open a PR with fixes

I started working on this issue. I have a draft pull request #2376. I got the issue with the changed paths to the header files fixed, but I am still getting errors with ggml symbols:

  "_ggml_view_tensor", referenced from:
      whisper_build_graph_encoder(whisper_context&, whisper_state&) in libwhisper.a[2](whisper.o)
      whisper_build_graph_cross(whisper_context&, whisper_state&) in libwhisper.a[2](whisper.o)
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture arm64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

make: *** [examples/go-whisper] Error 1

This is not the whole output. Just the end. I will keep taking a look when I can. But, wanted to put here in case anyone else made a better idea more quickly.

This is my HACK to get past this and verify it works.
