Building on OSX 10.6.6

[CrispyNoodle]

I'm having trouble building on OSX. If I use xcode I get a bunch of "xxx.h: No such file or directory" errors (e.g., Stdarg.h, Float.h".

I'm sure it's a silly configuration error, but I'm new to xcode and I haven't used c++ in a looong time, so any help would be appreciated.

You should probably specify which version you're trying to build, where did you get it, etc.

Did you install Xcode and the developer tools correctly? Did you get the osxlibs package?
Also check the README-Subversion file in the source package you got.

Did you ever move the entire project folder after you downloaded it?
Try putting it in your home folder.

Also, which version do you have? errors can vary, depending on the version of the project you've downloaded is.

[CrispyNoodle]

I think I found the problem. There seems to be a user-defined project setting in the xcode project indicating that it should be using the 10.4 SDK.

Do I need to install xcode with 10.4 support, or can I simply remove that user-setting?

Incidentally, here are my current settings:

I got the osxlibs package and installed in /Library/Frameworks (Version 2009-02-12 according to the release notes)

I'm using the latest source code from SVN:

So I reverted my local copy to the pristine version from SVN, and changed the Base SDK for the project from 10.4 to 10.6. I now get only one error (see attachment). It appears that even though I've selected i386 for my architecture, it's still trying to compile something specific to ppc architectures and it's causing the problem. Any thoughts?

[CrispyNoodle]

I got it. I also had to specify that it should build only the active architecture.

Damn. I've got 6 GB and I thought I had a lot. It's going to take you a life time to use all of that memory up!

[madmax]

Btw, you should probably use Launchpad instead of Sourceforge.

What we're doing with it
Our main source repository for long term history and releases still is managed with SVN at SourceForge, but our current development trunk and feature development branches that originate from it (and will be eventually merged back) are managed with Bazaar.

Yeah, found a good deal and went a little overboard

Will do, thanks. I just wanted to do a very tiny hack (took about three times as long to get set up than it did to make the change)

[dkiller]

Odd, I was able to compile whatever came from that link fine.

I got the osxlibs package and installed in /Library/Frameworks (Version 2009-02-12 according to the release notes)

That should be fine

Yes, like Madmax said, don't use svn anymore. I find its starting to disappear in other games too.

I think I found the problem. There seems to be a user-defined project setting in the xcode project indicating that it should be using the 10.4 SDK.

Do I need to install xcode with 10.4 support, or can I simply remove that user-setting?

Incidentally, here are my current settings:

Kernel Version: Darwin 10.6.0

When you change the base sdk to 10.4, your changing frameworks made just for compiling 10.5 and or 10.6 by adding a new set of 10.4 frameworks to add compatibility to 10.4 users. You should still be able to compile the game this way, but setting it on "10.6" will work fine too. I did find a change from your 0.2.8 package to the .3.0 package though. If you download the new project, it will set the base sdk to "current mac os version" instead of 10.4. So somebody else must have had the same problem.

[CrispyNoodle]

Sounds good. I will give it a try (though I made the change I wanted to make, so I'm not as motivated anymore

Thanks a bunch for your help!
