Hi Pete,
In [685], I've just committed preliminar supporto for building a bundle
(.app) on Mac OSX. Right now, only the core functionality has been
commmitted: it has yet to be integrated within Makespec.py.
To test it, add this at the bottom of your .spec file:
import sys
if sys.platform.startswith("darwin"):
app = BUNDLE(exe,
appname=name,
version=version)
It should correctly supports icons, and work in both one-file and
one-dir mode.
What I plan to do is to:
1) Make it so BUNDLE() is automatically a nop on platforms != darwin (so
to not be forced to put that "if" statement within the spec file)
2) Modify the templates in Makespec.py so that it adds a BUNDLE()
command whenever -w/--windowed is specified.
Patches are of course welcome :)
