I'm not sure what alut.h fix you're referring to - the only one I know of is to put it in place, or not use it in the first place. If there is a SimGear workaround that would be nice, because it wouldn't require fiddling around with Apple's framework, which is bound to cause headaches (i.e. on security upgrades it will no longer exist). Though I'm very glad about your contribution to Mac OS X port, I need to tell you some potential problems in posting patches. Mac OS X port is a bit complicated since it must support both PPC/Intel Macs, so Linux must support dozens of architectures. the Mac port has patches for both PPC/Intel Macs.

The patches for Mac OS X are available at: I appreciate your work on the XCode port, and I'm sure the downloadable .app will be more user-friendly and mac-like. I, on the other hand, am a UNIX geek at heart and so I am most interested in helping to get FlightGear to compile out of the box (and helping to keep it that way), without requiring a separate fork. I think mostly thanks to your past work, we're as close as I've ever seen - only one small patch and the ALUT problem for PLIB. I'm happy to coordinate testing with anyone who has ppc; I have an intel mac. I did have ppc for about a year so I'm familiar with both sides of the fence, as far as that goes.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] CVS on OS X
Hi Hans, Now I'm working on building both 0.9.11-pre1 and cvs head. I had some errors in linking osgViewer (when building fgfs cvs-head/ OSG-svn head) OSG-2.0 seems OK so I'll go with it for cvs-head for a while. By the way, do you know which revision/tag is suitable for building 0.9.11-pre1? I was able to build and run the 0.9.11-pre1 tarball without any changes at all (using the 0.9.11-pre1 SimGear and macports plib). I don't recall for sure, but I probably already had the alut.h fix in place. I see, it's maybe because I have kept the source updated so I haven't noticed the changes. otherwise the plib from MacProrts fixed the problem. I'll check this later. Anyway, I successfully compiled the fgfs-cvs with OSG 2.0 using Xcode project. I'm going to build 0.9.11-pre1 soon with my Xcode project.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] CVS on OS X
Hi Hans, Thanks for your contribution! There are some workarounds that I made for Macs (Xcode project) on these issues. You can check out the patches from the svn repository available from FlightGear Mac OS X website so take a look at that. Since I need to make universal binary packages for Mac OS X, I haven't integrated the Mac portions into configure/automake in the original source tree, but it's very welcome to have configure/automake things for Macs. Plus, I really hope that such patches will be applied into the repository soon. # Or I should have a cvs account to do it myself. anyway, about ALUT thing, I simply added the alut.h since I don't want to change Apple's framework. To avoild errors regarding to APIENTRY, I made a patch: --- org/plib-1.8.4/src/pui/puGLUT.h 2004-02-16 05:49:03.0 -0800 +++ PLIB/plib/src/pui/puGLUT.h 2006-11-16 07:37:01.0 -0800 @@ -32,6 +32,10 @@ #ifdef UL_MAC_OSX # include GLUT/glut.h +# ifndef APIENTRY +// This is a workaround to avoid getting errors in osg/BufferObject +# define APIENTRY +# endif --- org/SimGear/simgear/compiler.h 2006-11-03 01:57:02.0 -0800 +++ SimGear/SimGear/simgear/compiler.h 2006-11-16 01:23:06.0 -0800 @@ -376,7 +376,9 @@ # define SG_GLU_H OpenGL/glu.h # define SG_GLEXT_H OpenGL/glext.h # define SG_GLUT_H GLUT/glut.h - +# ifndef APIENTRY +#define APIENTRY +# endif inline int (isnan)(double r) { return !(r = 0 || r = 0); } #else # define SG_GL_H GL/gl.h Hope it helps.

Install dependencies. I got plib from macports, simgear from CVS, and OSG 2.0 binaries from the OSG website. Tiger includes OpenAL 1.1, but not ALUT, so there is no alut.h on the system. According to Apple[1] you should install freealut to get alut.h, but Apple in their infinite wisdom decided to include the ALUT symbols in their OpenAL framework, so if you try to install freealut you get symbol conflicts. See [2] for the gory details. The simplest solution seems to be to grab alut.h from the OpenAL 1.0 distribution and put it in /System/Library/Frameworks/OpenAL.framework/Headers As mentioned in a previous email, there is a compilation problem due to glut.h undefining APIENTRY. I hope that we can find a workaround for that in FlightGear source, but in the meantime the easiest fix is to hack your plib/pu.h to define APIENTRY after including glut.h (or hack glut.h to not undefine it). The following patch is required: --- a/src/Instrumentation/render_area_2d.cxx +++ b/src/Instrumentation/render_area_2d.cxx @@ -30,7 +30,8 @@ # include windows.h #endif -#include GL/gl.h +#include simgear/compiler.h +#include SG_GL_H #include render_area_2d.hxx Since OSG binaries are frameworks, the linkage needs to be changed to use -framework instead of -l. If you build OSG by hand, -l is correct, however you have to set OSG_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/ osgPlugins-2.0.0 because the make install target and the source code aren't on the same page as to where plugins should be installed. I have reported that to the OSG list and hopefully in future releases it will be fixed. In any case, users will rather use the binaries (frameworks) and developers can build frameworks from SVN, so -framework seems to me to be the most correct. Whether using -l or -framework for osg libraries, I had to link in osgGA and osgText explicitly or it would not link. Are we working towards total independence from plib? If so the APIENTRY problem will disappear on its own. The -framework issue I am happy to provide a patch for, as soon as I can figure out the right way to hack the autoconf/automake stuff to do so. Currently src/Main/Makefile.am includes the -l phrases explicitly, that will probably need to be changed to something more generic, probably in configure.ac. Does anyone know the right place for this? I'm inclined to take the OpenAL test in configure.ac as a basis.
