Title: Compiler issues on Mac OS X
Post by: mojca on October 02, 2013, 12:28:01 am

I would like to ask for a bit of help for creating proper patches for CB on Mac OS X.

• I had to add -lfontconfig to libexporter_la_LDFLAGS (probably libexporter_la_LIBADD would also work) in Makefile[.am] when compiling against wxGTK (but not when compiling against Carbon/Cocoa-based wxWidgets). What/where would be the proper way to check for & add that dependency?

• There seems to be some wrong linking order which eventually tries to build CB against the installed library rather than the new one

• Linker doesn't recognize --no-undefined

• I had some problem with malloc (_rpl_malloc), see

• I need help coming up with patches for a proper search for hunspell and possibly other libraries in configure.in

• The following code doesn't work with Carbon/Cocoa-based installation, but I'm not sure about the proper solution:

Code

        #if defined(__WXMSW__)
            wxCursor copycursor(dnd_copy_cur_xpm);
            wxCursor movecursor(dnd_move_cur_xpm);
            wxCursor nonecursor(dnd_none_cur_xpm);
        #else
            wxIcon copycursor(dnd_copy_cur_xpm);
            wxIcon movecursor(dnd_move_cur_xpm);
            wxIcon nonecursor(dnd_none_cur_xpm);
        #endif
        //wxDragResult result;

        wxDropSource dndSource(m_diagramwindow, copycursor, movecursor, nonecursor);

Thank you.

The first two issues have been solved. I added others to the new bug tracker on SF, tickets 8-13.

• https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/8/ (https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/8/) "wxIcon copycursor(...)" doesn't work with Carbon and Cocoa
• https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/9/ (https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/9/) clang's linker doesn't know the option --no-undefined
• https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/10/ (https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/10/) configure should support wx_mac/​wx_osx and check for hunspell
• https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/11/ (https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/11/) fix malloc tests in configure
• https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/12/ (https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/12/) wrong filename for libcodeblocks in Makefile.in
• https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/13/ (https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/13/) failure to build on OS X 10.9; wxcrt.h error: call to 'wcsstr' is ambiguous

Related thread about Mac issues on 10.5 is here: http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,18727.0.html (12.11 and 13.12 on OSX 10.5.8 PPC/Intel)

Hi, mojca, thanks for the report, though I'm not a Mac user.
It looks like we don't have ways to access to BerliOS's tickets system now.
(They are stored as xml files in C::B's svn rev9770 to rev9774)

I didn't check the SVN yet, but some user posted a compressed snapshot of the website with most of the tickets included.

After I noticed that the tickets were gone I copied the relevant information to SourceForge, so at least in my case all the contents and questions are accessible through SF and linked above.
