C::B working on Intel MAC OS X, but requires Makefile changes

(1/8) > >>

Paco.Blasco:
Hi all:

In order to compile C::B on Intel Macs, using native wx support (_WXMAC_), I did some changes:
- Patch the code for the problem with InfoWindow (attached file thanks to Pecan)
- Modify all plugins Makefiles changing the line "LDFLAGS="  by "LDFLAGS=`wx-config --libs`

I understand that the InfoWindow problem is due to limitations on wx, but I believe that (configure.in? Makefile.in?) must be changed in order to get a right link process.

Thx.

If you have a set of steps that gets codeblocks compiling on Mac OS X with autotools, please post it on the wiki.  With the way things are going it looks like it might be possible to have some kind of preliminary Mac support in the next release.  I developing with wxWidgets on OS X is my day job, and could help working out the issues related to that platform but I don't have time to slog through autotools and get it compiling.

Paco.Blasco:
Of course.
Once wxWidgets are compiled for mac, you can do next steps:
- Patch the code with the previous firmware
- Call bootstrap
- ./configure --enable-shared
- Add to LDLIBS "`wx-config --libs`"

I must to probe with LDFLAGS="`wx-config --libs`" ./configure

Is it enough?

Game_Ender:
Where did you get the most up to date autotools versions?  Darwin ports?

EDIT: By firmware do you mean you have to downgrade the firmware you Mac, or do you mean apply the patch you have attached to your post above.  You apply the patch to the current SVN head correct?

Paco.Blasco:
Yes. I used DarwinPorts. I have also Fink, but some command line tools are updated on DarwinPorts.
Also I've used the wxWidgets version of Darwinports to compile CodeBlocks.

Have you more information about DarwinPorts? Can be used?
My C::B for OSX don't compile any project and it have a lot of problems in order to manage projects.
I'm compiling the debig version in order to test the check the program.
