Hi,
I have just installed ClanLib and Pingus from svn:
*Installing ClanLib:
Used the instructions at http://www.clanlib.org/wiki/Compiling
and the dependent libraries listed in the INSTALL.macosx document in
ClanLib:
I used Xcode 2.3, gcc version 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build
5341), and zlib 1.2.3, all on Mac OS X 10.4.6 (8I127) on a PowerBook G4.
*Getting ClanLib and pingus source:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/pingus-devel/2005-12/msg00060.html
says that ClanLib 0.9 is incompatible with (pingus/Mac OS X)?
So I downloaded ClanLib-0.8 using the instructions at: http://
www.clanlib.org/subversion.html
Charis:~/Projects/Pingus twilsonb$ svn co https://clanlib.org/svn/
ClanLib/Development/ClanLib-0.8
Error validating server certificate for 'https://clanlib.org:443':

(R)eject, accept (t)emporarily or accept (p)ermanently? t
...
Checked out revision 930.
NOTE: The server certificate is outdated and has the wrong name.
*Building ClanLib 0.8:
I chose to use the universal binary instructions at http://
www.clanlib.org/wiki/XCode_Universal_Binaries
and used the binaries from http://www.clanlib.org/download-binaries-
osx-gcc40-universal.html
I opened the ClanLib.xcode project and upgraded it to an xcodeproj in
Xcode 2.3.
I downloaded the frameworks and put the in a Frameworks directory,
then reopened the project.
I changed the project settings to use the universal SDK, and (while I
was at it) activated Subversion version control. I also needed to
change the subversion tool path to /sw/bin/svn. I also needed to
accept the clanlib certificate permanently. I also changed it to
build for ppc and i386.
I then built using a dedicated build between the two Macs that I have.
(I decided not to wait for Xcode to sort out SCM status).
The build worked fine - about 5-10 minutes - there were some warnings
about deprecated QuickDraw functions - but nothing that's going to
cause any problems.
*Running/Debugging:
I get the message:
Pingus: Unknown throw caught!
when a CL_Error is thrown by ClanMikMod - the actual error (retrieved
by using debugging output before the throw) is:
Compressed sample is invalid for /tmp/build/products/Development/
Pingus.app/Contents/Resources/data/music/pingus-1.it
I remember RTTI errors like this having something to do with gcc,
and classes in header files. (I do have RTTI and exceptions turned
on). Does anyone know where I can find gcc documentation referring
to this problem? (Or some workarounds?)
I have read it somewhere but I can't find it now when I need it.
Apart from this problem, the game and engine run fine and compile
well on Mac OS X. It's good to see game engines that are so portable!
