Compiling Mac OS X 10.9.2 Mavericks

Compiling Mac OS X 10.9.2 Mavericks
Hello fellow tronners! I probably have asked this problem once before but got minimal help due to my lack of understanding of some things.

Well, I have been trying to compile the branch Armagetron Experimental 0.4 but having issues figuring out how. I cannot find the old wiki post that was once up telling people how, but I am sure I remember it being out of date, due to bazaar being only available for Snow leopard (Probably being a PowerPC Application). I do have some experience with Xcode, but still have yet to figure out how to compile.

Any help is appreciated!

The instructions are in the confusingly named README-Subversion file included with the source.

Hey, I opened up Armagetron Advanced.xcodeproj in MacOS, I seem to be having many errors, but not sure how to see what the problem is. So I ended up clicking update to recommended settings which fixxed them.


I then applied my changes and tried to build the application but ended up gettings this.

Code: Select all

The scheme 'Armagetron Advanced' contains no buildables that can be built for the SDKs supported by the run destination My Mac 64–bit. Make sure your targets all specify SDKs that are supported by this version of Xcode.

Could this be the issue?




Thank you very much for your help!

Forget the xcode project, it is outdated. Grab source code from launchpad, as well as dlh's os-x-toolkit, and use command line as for linux (i.e. classical sequence, bootstrap.sh, configure, make, make install...) as stated in readme file dlh pointed out to you.

I have Xcode, the command line tools, automake and autocof, and the OS X toolkit, but I am just not sure how to use them. How would I use the OS X toolkit folder in the compiling? Also, The makefile found in the OS x toolkit folder wouldnt open in anything but a texteditor.

I understand it said to follow the unix vanilla, but Im not sure if i would need to cd to a folder first?

Ok, let's make it step by step, everything in a terminal. I'll assume you've already install bzr and auto tools.

1. download and build os-x-tools
This first step take care of downloading and building all dependencies, thanks to dlh.

Code: Select all

bzr co lp:~dlh/armagetronad/os-x-toolkit
cd os-x-toolkit
vi Makefile # optional. I'm using vi as a text editor, use the one you like. See below about the changes to make.
make build-all
cd ..

before throwing make build-all, you might want to edit Makefile first lines and adjust settings to use 10.9 (mavericks) sdk. Otherwise, You'll have to download corresponding sdk.

Code: Select all

ARCH ?= i386,x86_64
SDK ?= /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk
VERSION_MIN ?= 10.9

2. download and build Armagetron Advances 0.4
This second step is very similar to vanilla unix. There's just a few parameters to pass to configure in order to specify where to find os-x-toolkit. I've passed more than necessary but in 1 of my comp, I had to do that to make it compiles smoothly.

Code: Select all

bzr co lp:armagetronad/0.4
cd 0.4
./bootstrap.sh
mkdir build; cd build
../configure --with-os-x-toolkit=/path/to/os-x-toolkit -with-os-x-arch=x86_64 --with-os-x-sdk=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk --with-os-x-version-min=10.9 SDL_CONFIG=/path/to/Sources/os-x-toolkit/libraries/bin/sdl-config CPPFLAGS=-I/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk/usr/include LDFLAGS=-L/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk/usr/lib
make install

just replace your desired architecture (i386 or x86_64) and /path/to/ by yours and here come your Armagetron Advanced.app (in the build directory).

Have fun

Hey, thanks for the very detailed response! I installed the os tool kit succesfully but i got this error when trying to compile 0.4 after making me edits

Looked like a automake problem so I thought about trying to reinstall automake and remember getting this before.

Most likeky, you must update auto tools (autoconf, automaker, lib tools)

I tried both architectures

[dlh]

Try:

Code: Select all

$ ../configure --with-os-x-toolkit=/Users/NC/os-x-toolkit

The --with-os-x-(arch, sdk, version-min) options aren't required¹. Also, you shouldn't need to set SDL_CONFIG , CPPFLAGS or LDFLAGS.

1. The SDK and version-min setting will default to whatever OS X version you're running. Arch will default to i386.

I have the same problem as LittleSteps here above, but I don't seem to find how to update automake properly. I tried multiple ways updating and the problem stayed. Any ideas or a correct way to update automake?

EDIT: Never mind, for some reason it kept going to an older version. After deleting all and reinstalling it did work.
