[Flac-dev] Bugfix release?

[grarpamp]

Hi. It has been some time since I posted to the list, and may be some
time in the future until I have an oppurtunity to revisit FLAC. So, as I have
been quite satisfied yet always mindful with FLAC, I simply wanted to encourage
any potential cumulative bugfix release... and or repository tag/update
as such... should it be warranted. It would not go unappreciated by
the base users, myself included. Thanks :-)

ps: I cannot speak for any other set of users, but my main current
use of FLAC is to shrink rips for storage and playback. And to
expand them back to the identical original rip as needed. Beyond
that basic requirement, my current interest is in working playback
plugins. I do not yet need tagging functions as I handle that in the
filename itself. Nor do I need other functions as of yet.
As far as I can tell, FLAC has become the leader in lossless.
Thank you for FLAC!

Re: [Flac-dev] Compiling in Xcode

[Brian Willoughby]

You're right: any QuickTime component probably requires Xcode.

Based on your comments, the only suggestion I have is to read through  
the compiler options and look for ones which affect the Objective-C++  
mix.  I do recall a few command-line options for changing the  
behavior of the compiler, and they're all available from Xcode if you  
change the build settings.

There are a couple of Apple-hosting mailing lists for Xcode,  
QuickTime, Cocoa, etc.  You might find some help there.

Beyond that, I don't have much to offer at this time.  I worked on a  
similar plugin many years ago, but ran out of time.
