Hello fb hackers. I tried recently to compile firebird trunk on my Mac OSX Lion system and ran into some issues, which I'll describe here.
* configuring I put the following into my ~/.zshrc: export LIBPREFIX='/opt/local' export CPATH="$LIBPREFIX/include" export CPPFLAGS="-I$LIBPREFIX/include -I$LIBPREFIX/include/libtommath" export LDFLAGS="-L$LIBPREFIX/lib" export CXXFLAGS="$CFLAGS" export LIBTOOLIZE=glibtoolize export LIBTOOL=glibtool I installed the "icu" and "libtommath" ports from macports. configure did not recognize my system. I added the following stanza to configure.in: Index: configure.in =================================================================== --- configure.in (revision 54028) +++ configure.in (working copy) @@ -97,6 +97,20 @@ EXPORT_SYMBOLS_STYLE=darwin ;; + x86_64*-darwin*) +dnl MAKEFILE_PREFIX=darwin_i386 + MAKEFILE_PREFIX=darwin_x86_64 + MAKEFILE_POSTFIX=darwin + PLATFORM=DARWIN + INSTALL_PREFIX=darwin + AC_DEFINE(DARWIN, 1, [Define this if OS is DARWIN]) + XE_APPEND(-framework CoreFoundation,LIBS) + EDITLINE_FLG=Y + SHRLIB_EXT=dylib + CPU_TYPE=x86_64 + EXPORT_SYMBOLS_STYLE=darwin + ;; + powerpc-*-darwin*) MAKEFILE_PREFIX=darwin_powerpc dnl MAKEFILE_PREFIX=darwin_ppc64 I just copied the i*86-*-darwin*) section. It would be better to combine the two into a single glob spec I think. Then I ran: sh autogen.sh --enable-superserver which ran through successfully. On make I got a strange error relating to sed: make -C gen firebird make TARGET=Release master_process make updateBuildNum (cd /Users/rkitover/src/firebird/firebird/trunk; ./src/misc/writeBuildNum.sh rebuildHeader) files are identical make export_lists make[3]: Nothing to be done for `export_lists'. make extern make -C /Users/rkitover/src/firebird/firebird/trunk/extern/btyacc make[4]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make -f /Users/rkitover/src/firebird/firebird/trunk/gen/Makefile.extern.editline make[4]: Nothing to be done for `libeditline'. make boot g++ -O3 -DDARWIN -pipe -p -MMD -fPIC -fno-common -mmacosx-version-min=10.6 -I/Users/rkitover/src/firebird/firebird/trunk/src/include/gen -I/Users/rkitover/src/firebird/firebird/trunk/src/include -I/opt/local/include -I/opt/local/include/libtommath -D_THREAD_SAFE -fno-rtti -fvisibility-inlines-hidden -fvisibility=hidden -fno-weak -fvisibility-inlines-hidden -fvisibility=hidden -fno-weak -fvisibility-inlines-hidden -fvisibility=hidden -fno-weak -c /Users/rkitover/src/firebird/firebird/trunk/src/gpre/cme.cpp -o /Users/rkitover/src/firebird/firebird/trunk/temp/Release/gpre/cme.o sed: -e: No such file or directory make[3]: *** [/Users/rkitover/src/firebird/firebird/trunk/temp/Release/gpre/cme.o] Error 1 make[2]: *** [master_process] Error 2 make[1]: *** [firebird] Error 2 make: *** [firebird] Error 2 I could not find a "sed" invocation in any of the Makefiles so I don't know where it's coming from.
