Has anyone compiled under Leopard

lowededwookie · Post by **lowededwookie** » Mon Dec 03, 2007 9:00 am

If so how did you do it?

One of the problems with compiling under Mac OS X is it seems to want to point to the 10.3.9 stuff. Most of the 10.3.9 has been removed from Leopard to try and progress development away from legacy stuff. A good move I feel but it seems to play havoc with building Vegastrike and considering the time it seems to be taking to get a proper build from the guys and the comments elsewhere here I'm picking Leopard may be a curse as well as a blessing for this sort of thing.

You need some hacks and a lot of development libraries installed.

I think you can't use the configure script direclty. Instead take a look at intel-mac-conf.sh in the vegastrike directory.

HellcatV compiled the libraries in his version, and if you are interested I can send you all of those files... the build directories for all of them are on the order of a few hundred megs.

You might actually have better luck by using Darwin Ports or Fink to install the libraries... that way you don't have to deal with the mess of compiling them yourself.

In addition, you might need a fixed version of OpenAL with the "Warming the buffers" race condition loop removed (Apple's OpenAL is buggy at least in 10.4... not sure about 10.5).

And you also need SDL.

It's a lot of work but if you are interested in developing on the mac it is usually possible to get it working in a few hours

Also it seems to compile really fast on the mac which is another advantage.

it is easier said than done on the mac. I have an iMac G5 that I have tried way too many times to compile on (Tiger) and it has worked once a long time ago and only barely. Currently, my build fails with about 9000 errors about not finding any files... oh well. let me know if you get it to work, and mabey it will inspire me to try again. Good Luck

Edit: I suggest using Fink to install the dependancies. At least, thats what I did...but mine didn't work...so maybe use macports instead

I'm fine with using DarwinPorts or Fink but one I have no end of problems installing is GLUT which always fails and DarwinPorts seems to have problems installing it as well. Any idea of a decent way to install this or can VS be installed without it?

I'm not really clued in enough to start messing with config files as I'm only just starting to get into programming (haven't really done any programming since Blitz Basic on the Amiga). Is the file commented enough to allow a novice to workout what's going on?

Thanks so much for the reply BTW.

You should be able to use the GLUT from the XCode tools that come with the OS. About an hour ago, i finally got mine to compile (thanks to ace123). To get configure to see it, I have to use:

Code: Select all

./configure --with-gl-libs=/usr/X11R6/lib --with-gl-inc=/usr/X11R6/include/GL

My final configure that got it work looked like

Code: Select all

./configure --with-gl-libs=/usr/X11R6/lib --with-gl-inc=/usr/X11R6/include/GL --with-python-libs=/sw/lib/python2.3/config --with-expat-libs=/usr/X11R6/lib --with-expat-inc=/usr/X11R6/include --with-png-libs=/sw/lib --with-png-inc=/sw/include/libpng12 --with-jpeg-libs=/sw/lib --with-jpeg-inc=/sw/include --with-vorbis-libs=/sw/lib --with-vorbis-inc=/sw/include --with-python-inc=/sw/include/python2.4

That was with all the dependancies installed by fink. I dont know how different leapard is as a development environment though.

10.5 is almost exactly the same as 10.4 however surprising it seems.

Same version of GCC and most libraries are the same.

lowededwookie · Post by **lowededwookie** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 10:58 am

Okay, so I think I have all the dependancies installed. I tried using the config commands that bgaskey suggested and it seems to run the config alright but then fails on the make.

Is there a link to the aforementioned libraries that HellCatV compiled because I really am getting nowhere fast.

I've included the config.log file so maybe there's something in that that is not working right for me.

Thanks heaps for your help guys. I think once the nut had been cracked it'll be a "penny drop" moment I'm sure.

bgaskey · Post by **bgaskey** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 1:40 pm

how exactly does the make fail? I think i can help fix it if it's one of the failures ive had (which is alot)

Hey Bgaskey,

Sorry for the late reply, timezones and lack of access to my machine made difficult that.

Anyway, here's the results I get:

bgaskey · Post by **bgaskey** » Mon Dec 10, 2007 11:07 pm

the command looks fine to me. have you tried re svn update ing in case it is file corruption or a missing file?

If that's not the case, I can't be much help, as I don't know enough C of C++ to understand the game code any

Also, it always has a -I/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.3.0.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Libraries/CIncludes, which does not exists (there is a 10.3.9 sdk though) i wonder if this could be a bug in the config script or if it is correct and I am just really confused.

Post by **ace123** » Tue Dec 11, 2007 2:36 am

One thing to try is to go to src/cmd/collide_map.h and adding a "#include <math.h>" at the top (first line) of collide_map.h

Other things to try are to change finite to FINITE, but I doubt that will fix it.

lowededwookie · Post by **lowededwookie** » Tue Dec 11, 2007 10:23 am

I think I'm getting closer.

I edited the config.ac file and replaced everything that mentioned 10.3.0 or 10.2.8 with 10.3.9 and it's taking longer to fail.

It's failing the make with this:

depbase=`echo src/cmd/ai/docking.o | sed 's|[^/]*$|.deps/&|;s|\.o$||'`;\
g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I./boost/1_33 -Wno-long-double -I/sw/include -DHAVE_SDL=1 -DSDL_WINDOWING=1 -I/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.3.9.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Libraries/CIncludes -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/sw/include/libpng12 -I/sw/include -DJPEG_SUPPORT -DHAVE_AL=1 -I/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenAL.framework/Headers -I/sw/include -I/sw/include/python2.4 -DHAVE_PYTHON=1 -I/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.3.9sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Libraries/CIncludes -DHAVE_PYTHON=1 -I/sw/include/python2.4 -I./src -I/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.3.9sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Libraries/CIncludes -DHAVE_PYTHON=1 -I/sw/include/python2.4 -pipe -I/sw/include/SDL -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -D_THREAD_SAFE -D_REENTRANT -MT src/cmd/ai/docking.o -MD -MP -MF $depbase.Tpo -c -o src/cmd/ai/docking.o src/cmd/ai/docking.cpp &&\

Is this the same as what was happening to Bgaskey here:

http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/forum ... hp?t=10035

I just edited this with bold to highlight what I'm talking about.

bgaskey · Post by **bgaskey** » Thu Dec 13, 2007 1:02 am

no definitely a different problem. mine was failing because it couldnt find the correct files whereas yours is failing trying to compile a specific file. I would try following ace123's advice (he's the one who get mine tot work).

Did you try this suggestion yet?

The error you posted is still the same one... but editing the cpp file in this way might get you farther.

The odd thing is I also have 10.5.1 Leopard and do not have this issue.

lowededwookie · Post by **lowededwookie** » Sun Dec 16, 2007 1:07 am

Hi, sorry for my lack of replying, got tied up playing Resident Evil 4 on the Wii.

I have done the fixes Ace only I think I may have done it slightly wrong because I didn't have the math.h include as the first line but about the 5th with the other includes. Have corrected this as well as changing the finite to FINITE as well.

I hope I'm editing the right files. FINITE was changed in the configure.ac file and math.h was entered into:

src/cmd/collide_map.h

What I'm a bit confused with though is that you say:

The error you posted is still the same one... but editing the cpp file in this way might get you farther.

do you mean make the same changes in collide_map.cpp or is it only collide_map.h?

Really do appreciate your helping me out. I love VegaStrike and want to get this running so much.

Post by **ace123** » Sun Dec 16, 2007 8:28 am

Yeah the reason I didn't pay attention to those details is that it should not make any difference. The math.h can be either place. When I said CPP I meant the C++ code, which was in a header in this case.

I trust you made the right changes (changed the FINITE)

Anyway what I am interested in is if that solves all of the errors. Can you run "make vegastrike" again and post any error/warning messages that appear?

Or are you saying that despite using upper case FINITE, you still get these exact error messages:

Code: Select all

./src/cmd/collide_map.h: In member function â€˜void Collidable::SetPosition(const QVector&)â€™:
./src/cmd/collide_map.h:35: error: â€˜finiteâ€™ was not declared in this scope

lowededwookie · Post by **lowededwookie** » Sun Dec 16, 2007 11:35 am

Unfortunately despite all the changes it's the same error.

I've noticed other weird things like despite having GTK installed both via Fink and MacPorts the configure script still says that it isn't installed.

Whereabouts can I get hold of the precompiled dependancies because I'd like to see if this fixes anything.

bgaskey · Post by **bgaskey** » Sun Dec 16, 2007 2:39 pm

What command are you using to configure. You may want to try pointing it to GTK just to get that cleared up, although i dont think that is whats causing make to fail.

Post by **ace123** » Sun Dec 16, 2007 10:25 pm

Can you paste the *exact* error message you are now getting?

You said you changed finite to FINITE... does the error still have lowercase "finite" because that would be weird (or indicate it is #define'd somewhere)?

If you did add a "#include <math.h>" anywhere in the first few lines of the file, that ought to either fix lowercase finite or uppercase finite.

The strangest thing about this is that hellcatv has osx 10.4, and I have 10.5, and to my knowledge, neither of us have seen this error with a standard "./configure" with extra options and "make vegastrike".

To my knowledge each version of OSX is pretty standard.

That's exactly what's happening. The error keeps showing up lowercase "finite" despite having changed everything to uppercase.

I built using the same options as what Bgaskey had posted:

./configure --with-gl-libs=/usr/X11R6/lib --with-gl-inc=/usr/X11R6/include/GL --with-python-libs=/sw/lib/python2.3/config --with-expat-libs=/usr/X11R6/lib --with-expat-inc=/usr/X11R6/include --with-png-libs=/sw/lib --with-png-inc=/sw/include/libpng12 --with-jpeg-libs=/sw/lib --with-jpeg-inc=/sw/include --with-vorbis-libs=/sw/lib --with-vorbis-inc=/sw/include --with-python-inc=/sw/include/python2.4

I was hoping if it worked for him it might work for me. Turns out no.

One thing I've noticed and I'm beginning to wonder if this is the real problem. When I run make the very very last line it throws before sending me back to prompt is this:

make: *** [src/cmd/ai/docking.o] Error 1

I checked for this file and it turns out it doesn't exist. I don't remember getting any errors when I downloaded from SVN so what gives? Does this file need to exist or is it created? I have a docking.cpp and docking.h file but not a docking.o file.

Post by **loki1950** » Tue Dec 18, 2007 2:38 pm

The o suffix means that is an object file generated by that make and not linked yet so it will not be in the repository

so that means that there is an error in docking.cpp.

Enjoy the Choice

cd src/cmd/ai
make

study the output

lowededwookie · Post by **lowededwookie** » Tue Dec 18, 2007 9:07 pm

Is there a log file for Make that I can upload or should I just copy and paste it into a text file?

Thanks once again for your time all.

Post by **ace123** » Tue Dec 18, 2007 10:47 pm

you can add a > ~/Desktop/output.txt 2>&1 to the end of any command... the 2>&1 means also save the error output.

For example:
make > ~/Desktop/make.txt 2>&1

keep in mind that the ">" will replace the contents of that file if it already exists, use ">>" to append to a file.

Post by **loki1950** » Tue Dec 18, 2007 10:48 pm

Just the terminal output so cut and paste to a text file and post that

Enjoy the Choice
