[Freeciv-Dev] [bug #18200] Configure is unable to detect frameworks
Follow-up Comment #7, bug #18200 (project freeciv): It seemed to find header this time, but to fail compile test program. Does attached patch help for that problem? I still don't believe that libraries would be in directory named Headers, so presumably you will later have problems with linking test also. Check locate libQtGui and locate libQtGUI in case either gives path to libraries.

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #18200 (project freeciv): Yes, it's one line setting CFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables for run of configure. Is that not found still about headers or about libraries (they are separate tests)? Include paths given in CFLAGS affect how headers are found, library paths in LDFLAGS affect how libraries are found. Configure check for headers tries to find QApplication and library check libraries QtGui and QtCore. Library files are named like libQtGui.somesuffix. If you send config.log generated when configure fails, I can check what exactly fails in configure test. ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?18200 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #18200 (project freeciv): I'll attach the log. I suspect conftest.cpp should also try to #include QApplication/qapplication.h .

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #18200 (project freeciv): Stupid mistake from my part. Qt-client is C++ program (and so is configure check for it). Use CXXFLAGS instead of CFLAGS. ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?18200 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #18200 (project freeciv): CXXFLAGS gives me the same result. FWIW i've started a thread at the QtDevNet forum asking for info or an example. http://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/viewthread/6743 (file #13175) ___ Additional Item Attachment: File name: CXX-config.log Size:89 KB ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?18200 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

URL: http://gna.org/bugs/?18200 Summary: Configure is unable to detect frameworks Project: Freeciv Submitted by: doctorjlowe Submitted on: Sat 11 Jun 2011 03:00:44 PM GMT Category: None Severity: 3 - Normal Priority: 5 - Normal Status: None Assigned to: None Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Release: Discussion Lock: Any Operating System: Mac OS Planned Release: ___ Details: Background: on OSX, many dependencies are provided as a so-called 'framework' that includes the function library, documentation, and headers in a bundle. For example, the official Mac binaries for both SDL and QT are only provided as frameworks. This becomes an issue when a Mac user attempts to build freeciv against either of the above mentioned interfaces. Even though i have the QT framework installed and am able to compile QT programs, autogen.sh --enable-client=qt eventually fails with: checking Qt headers... not found. Such headers are not in /usr/include , but rather [for example] /Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4/Headers/QApplication . Further information can be found here: http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPFrameworks/Frameworks.html%23//apple_ref/doc/uid/1183-SW1 . I propose that we modify configure to detect frameworks, combined with minor changes to preprocessor directives and compile time arguments to allow them to be used by freeciv. I have found an example of how another project handled this here: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/918 . ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?18200 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

Update of bug #18200 (project freeciv): Assigned to:None = cazfi ___ Follow-up Comment #1: Until we get configure somehow to work around this, you can test if you can build by setting (user) CFLAGS and LDFLAGS before configure. Your example shows where to find headers, but we still have to find out where are libraries. In the following example to test I assume they are in directory named Libraries that is sibling to directory Headers. mkdir build cd build CFLAGS=-I/Library/Frameworks/QtGUI.framework/Versions/4/Headers -I/Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4/Headers LDFLAGS=-L/Library/Frameworks/QtGUI.framework/Versions/4/Libraries -L/Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4/Libraries ../configure --enable-client=qt ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?18200 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #18200 (project freeciv): I still get 'not found'. Am i right that from CFLAGS= to =qt is one line? Manually inspecting a framework reveals there is no Libraries subdirectory. For each of the header files, there is a similar named file right next to it. For example, QCoreApplication and QCoreApplication.h are both under Headers. Based on that, i ran your example again with the LDFLAGS pointing to the HEADERS directory, but we still get not found. ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?18200 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
