Title: CB on Mac?
Post by: gib on September 08, 2010, 11:31:48 pm
Since there were no responses to my previous query, I'm left unsure as to whether (a) my question was stupid, (b) nobody reading this forum is using a Mac (and a compiler that isn't detected automatically), (c) it is generally known that the Mac version of CB has a few wrinkles.  Perhaps someone can resolve this uncertainty for me ...

Well first you should have put that into the thread with your first query, because it was unsure to me what exactly you mean when reading this.

Finally I didn't get if you want to help in C::B development for Mac, or if you want help with the programs you are porting to the Mac. If it's the latter that this would be out of the scope of our forum. If it's the first, start reporting the issues, otherwise what should somebody say?!

Thanks for responding.  I didn't realize that what I wrote wasn't clear enough.  I was reporting the fact that on Mac OS X, with gfortran set up as a compiler, it is necessary to redefine gfortran as a compiler on every invocation of C::B.  What I mean is that gfortran disappears from the list of compilers.  I wasn't asking for help with porting my program to the Mac.  The only reason I mentioned the other OSs was to make it clear that I was seeing a behaviour on the Mac different from on W7 and Linux.  As I've posted on the Help board, I'm willing to help to get this fixed, but my help will probably be limited to testing.

It occurs to me that possibly you are referring to my post on the development board, but I was referring to my previous post on this board.
