Big trouble running Codeblocks in MacOS X Leopard
Baluarte:
Greetings!
First:
Here a very very very happy Codeblocks 'old' user. Keep the good work! It is amazing!!
Second:
For first time, I try to build/run Codeblocks (from SVN repository) in Mac OS X Leopard (MacBoock Pro/Intel CPU)
I use the Leopard default GCC (i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-401)
I have previously built/installed under "/usr/local" directory the wxWidgets 2,8,9.
I follow the same Linux/Unix system steps. Perhaps do not be the right approach ( ?)
The main steps:
1. svn checkout svn://svn.berlios.de/codeblocks/trunk
2. ./bootstrap
3. mkdir builds; cd builds
4. ../configure --with-wxdir=/usr/local/
5. make
6. sudo make install
SUCCESS!!
However:
When I launch the Codeblocks from terminal. It seems work normally. The classical main Codeblocks window is showed without problems. But, Is it unable to respond any event! Click a button. Open menu. Nothing. The MAC OS X interface window title ( Maximize Window, Minimize Window, Close Window) works.
When I attempt to launch from the Finder, It denies me. It determine that 'Codeblocks' is a Classical Application (and so NO compatible with the new MAC OSX Leopard )
Any Idea? Any flag? Any updated guide? Thanks in advance!
P.S: Sorry for my terrible English!

afb:
Not responding to events is "normal" for wxWidgets on Mac.
Adding the resfork is enough to make it work in earlier versions of Mac OS X, however it is not a Classic application as Finder mistakenly deduces (it uses Carbon). For newer versions it seems you must make an application bundle, so running from the regular /usr/local doesn't work anymore.
See wiki:Installing_Code::Blocks_from_source_on_Mac_OS_X#Way_Two:_NeXT_.28bundle.29 and http://wiki.wxwidgets.org/WxMac_Issues#Building_a_MacOSX_application_bundle. The included wxWidgets template has the same issue, so all of it needs updating for Leopard.
You're 90% there though, just need the directory structure...
Baluarte:
Thank you for your very fast answer!
In a few days, I will try the suggested approach.
I must admit I am a newbie in MacOS X environment.

Baluarte:
Ok! Unsuccessful Greetings!
Reminder:
I attempt running Codeblocks (from SVN) in a Macbook Pro with Leopard 1,5,6 installed.
Until now, I have managed to compile/building/installing under usr/local/ the CodeblocksSVN (see previous posts in this forum thread)
Codeblocks works but he is unable to respond to any event.
Today:
Now I try to create a MACOSX application bundle.
Obeying indications from:
http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_Code::Blocks_from_source_on_Mac_OS_X#Way_Two:_NeXT_.28bundle.29
I built the tree folder:
CodeBlocksSVN.app
CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents
CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents/MacOS
CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents/Resources
CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents/MacOS/CodeBlocks
CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents/Resources/share
CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents/Resources/share/codeblocks
After that:
I copy the file Info.plist from SVN trunk to CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents
I copy the file app.icns from SVN trunk to CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents/Resources
In the next step I use the script suggested in
http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_Code::Blocks_from_source_on_Mac_OS_X#Way_Two:_NeXT_.28bundle.29

--- End code ---
I suspect that the script is not updated. That way I got the following errors:
--- Code: ---cp: /usr/local/bin/codesnippets: No such file or directory
cp: /usr/local/lib/libwxsmithlib.0.dylib: No such file or directory
cp: /usr/local/lib/libwx_macu-2.8.0.dylib: No such file or directory

install_name_tool: can't open file: ./CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents/MacOS/libwxsmithlib.0.dylib (No such file or directory)
install_name_tool: can't open file: ./CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents/MacOS/libwxsmithlib.0.dylib (No such file or directory)
--- End code ---
The "can't map file" erros can be circumvented with the change:
install_name_tool -change /usr/local/lib/libcodeblocks.0.dylib @executable_path/libcodeblocks.0.dylib ./CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents/MacOS/CodeBlocks/codeblocks
install_name_tool -change /usr/local/lib/libwx_macu-2.8.0.dylib @executable_path/libwx_macu-2.8.0.dylib ./CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents/MacOS/CodeBlocks/codeblocks
install_name_tool -change /usr/local/lib/libwxsmithlib.0.dylib @executable_path/libwxsmithlib.0.dylib ./CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents/MacOS/CodeBlocks/codeblocks
In this case, When I run the script I get:
--- Code: ---cp: /usr/local/bin/codesnippets: No such file or directory
cp: /usr/local/lib/libwxsmithlib.0.dylib: No such file or directory
cp: /usr/local/lib/libwx_macu-2.8.0.dylib: No such file or directory

install_name_tool: can't open file: ./CodeBlocksSVN.app/Contents/MacOS/libwxsmithlib.0.dylib (No such file or directory)
--- End code ---
I think the script is too old. The libwx_macu-2.8.0.dylib, libwxsmithlib.0, codesnippets files must be "anachronic" references. True? I have searched similar files but I have not found good candidates.
Which should new files be? (Especifically for libwx_macu-2.8.0.dylib)
At last, I executed application from Finder.
The Codeblocks icon jumped four or five times in the dashboard before vanishing.
Next nothing happened.
The Consola.app says:
--- Code: ---[0x0-0x20020].org.codeblocks.app[489] /System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.Framework/Versions/A/Support/LaunchCFMApp [489] Launch Failed with Error Code -2857

--- End code ---
What must I do now?
Thanks in advance!

They are out of sync (outdated), but the general principle should still hold...
I'll try to update it with the latest script and take down the most ancient files.

libwx_macu-2.8.0.dylib is the name of the shared library, even for wxWidgets 2.8.9
It's normally a symbolic link to the actual version (like libwx_macu-2.8.0.5.0.dylib)

Most likely a library dependency looked in the wrong place, or something...
Look with /Applications/Utilities/Console.app for the actual error in the log ?
