Hi Robert,

Too much time has lapsed to reconstruct my exact problems -- too much cursing instead of note taking back then. I started with Cmake 2.4.7 that we'd been using for Linux OSG builds. It was quickly obvious that version wouldn't do. I don't recall how I ended up with cmake 2.6.1 - it was probably the latest stable version when I grabbed it, but it was giving me problem after problem. Just lucky I guess. I later grabbed version 2.6.2 which I can build without a hitch and is what I ultimately used to build OSG.

I guess the big problem for me was that the Dependencies page was and still is way behind the curve on what's required for building on Mac OSX. It says "CMake 2.4 or later is prefered". On Mac specific page there's mention of grabbing the SVN version of Cmake for XCode considerations, but nothing more specific about a required cmake version.


The Mac (OS X 10.5.2) has libcurl.4.dylib.

I also had a problem building the curl plugin on an i386 Linux system with libcurl.2.0.2 . Other Linux systems here have libcurl.3.0.0 although I haven't built on any of these.

Hi Don,

Cmake should only build the curl plugin if it finds libcurl installed.
  So I presume that you do have libcurl installed on your system but
an older version perhaps that the OSG can't compile against.

Could you pass on the errors, and information about which version of
libcurl you have installed on your system so we can look at ways of
fix this, even with changes to the source code or the build.

Robert.

I thought maybe it's time to bring this up.  The problem I had building
cmake on Mac OS X had to do with libcurl.  I got the cmake build past to
finally complete by turing off some curl specific tests.  The development
systems I work on are not connected to the Internet and do not get updated
libraries very often. This may be a factor.  (I also built cmake from
downloaded source.)

If even is libcurl is not a prerequisite for OSG is seems that some mention
of it on the Dependencies page would be helpful.  Many seem to have been
bitten by libcurl problems.

I think it's right in the middle of moving from Xcode based projects to

cmake build system, which currently generates dylibs instead of frameworks

(I may not be up to date, checked a couple of weeks ago, moving target).

Once you get a successful build in cmake, with proper build flags, you

shouldn't have much surprise on the mac.

Quoting Don Leich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

My experience with Mac development has not quite so smooth.  Getting

cmake to

build was a battle and beyond the scope of this thread.  OSG itself has

some

appearant rough edges with OSG and X11 integration. I am working with

Odd, it was a complete breeze for me getting OSG/cmake/Makefiles (cmake
2.6

from

DarwinPorts) compiled on OS X.

I don't know why you have to use X11 (Qt?) but that could be the cause of

your

problems.  You'd probably see similar issues running OSG/X11 on Windows.
