Re: [ft-devel] Minor misc patches to freetype cvs, from custom changes in vtk

In the other word, the case we have to exclude is building 64bit Intel Mac binary ON 10.4.9, not building 64bit Intel Mac binary FOR 10.4.9 ? 64 bit support is the same for both Intel and PPC. 64 bit support is the same from 10.4.0 to 10.4.9. 64 bit support is the same wether you are 'building on' or 'building for'. On 10.4.x (on either PPC or Intel) you _can_ create 64 bit executables. But they can _only_ link against System.framework and Accelerate.framework. A 64 bit executable cannot link against Carbon.framework, because Carbon.framework is only 32 bit. So, freetype can be built as 64 bit if ftmac.c is excluded. ftmac.c cannot be built as 64 bit because it uses Carbon.framework. On 10.5 this restriction is gone, but other changes will be needed for 10.5, so I don't think we should worry yet. -- Sean McBride, B.

Excuse me, please let me alter the phraseology: Mac OS X 10.4.x on Intel Mac can execute 64bit Intel Mac binary? Yes. (Of course, it must be a 64-bit CPU, not all Intel Macs have 64 bit CPUs. The Mac Pro is 64 bit, the Mac Mini is 32 bit.) Maybe this will be helpful: http://www.apple.com/jp/macosx/features/64bit/ Thank you, yet I don't have access to Mac Pro. 64bit-x86 Carbon will be provided in future, and it is possible that ppc64 Carbon is still missing in future. Thus, unified conditional __LP64__ for current status may be disunified in future, aslike #if defined( __ppc64__ ) || \ ( defined( __x86_64__ ) MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED 1050 ) I will rewrite the conditional without unification by __LP64__. Please wait a few days (now I'm in duty-trip without Macintosh). However, I remember configure checks Carbon framework availability, so I wish building FreeType2 on 64bit Intel Mac 10.4.x won't cause such problem. You had problem?

No. Apple has already said that 64 bit Carbon will be for both Intel and PPC. See: http://www.apple.com/macosx/leopard/64bit.html Thus, unified conditional __LP64__ for current status may be disunified in future, aslike #if defined( __ppc64__ ) || \ ( defined( __x86_64__ ) MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED 1050 ) I will rewrite the conditional without unification by __LP64__.

However, I remember configure checks Carbon framework availability, so I wish building FreeType2 on 64bit Intel Mac 10.4.x won't cause such problem. You had problem? VTK does not use freetype's configure system, instead VTK uses CMake. I did not try to build freetype as x86_64 on 10.4. -- Sean McBride, B.
