Re: [Fink-devel] Which define do you use for MAC OS X specific source code ?

2002-09-19 Thread Ben Hines
#if defined(__APPLE__) works. However this is considered "fragile" by Apple and is not reccomended. Better practice is to check for platorm in the configure script and add something like DARWIN or MACOSX to the CFLAGS depending on platform (e.g, -DMACOSX), then use #ifdef MACOSX ... #else ..

Hi, which #define ??? do you use when you mark apple specific source code ? I've found __APPLE_CC__ but I'm not sure if this is the best choice. Gruss Olaf --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkg

Hi, I finally loaded up fink on my 10.2 system the other day. With the base install done and nothing else, I tried to "update" my package, "autogen". The (transitive) list of dependencies was pretty amazing for a console program, going through Gtk and a lot of other stuff. It finally blew up a

What is the fink group's policy on dependencies? Several important packages seem to specify an unnecessarily large number of dependencies, none of which are essential to either compile or make effective use of it. For example, the libxml2 package has build dependencies of gtk-doc, python, db
