Yes, that sounds about right - command line stuff works, but anything that needs to interact with the window manager needs to be bundled (or alternatley have a suitable res fork, for versions prior to 10.5.) > I'm using CMake to build the project, so I'm going to need to > look into how CMake does OS X bundles. Man, this OS X > programming is one... learning opportunity... after another :) With a suitable gui toolkit (e.g. fltk) it becomes very like any other unix system - the vagaries of their odd WM are largely hidden. The only caveat is the post-processing steps you need to do to make a suitable bundle, which is just a directory hierarchy really, the top one of which is called <thing>.app - you can make a basic structure and then copy in your exe to run it. Several of the demos in the test folder build their own bundles at make time, e.g. sudoku etc. Indeed, I think they even build their bundles on linux... I *think* the cmake file in the test directory knows how to build the sudoku bundle, so maybe you can just copy that. Or add a simple script phase that you run by hand that does it...
