| | 1 | wxCocoa is still a work in progress. |
| | 2 | |
| | 3 | To compile it, you will need Apple's Developer Tools. However, please |
| | 4 | note that any work to make it suitable for GNUstep (which will require |
| | 5 | a GCC release with Objective-C++) will be much appreciated. |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | For the time being, the standard configure/make method works. You will |
| | 8 | want to build static because there are a number of unimplemented functions |
| | 9 | that a shared library will need (becuase of wxWidgets code internally using |
| | 10 | them) but that a static library will not (because most of the samples |
| | 11 | don't need it). |
| | 12 | |
| | 13 | On my system I have the following: |
| | 14 | |
| | 15 | Checked out CVS source is in: |
| | 16 | /Users/dfe/devel/wxHEADcommit/wxWidgets |
| | 17 | Debug build directory is: |
| | 18 | /Users/dfe/devel/wxHEADcommit/BUILD_COCOAd |
| | 19 | |
| | 20 | From the debug build directory: |
| | 21 | $ ../wxWidgets/configure --with-cocoa --enable-debug --disable-shared |
| | 22 | $ make |
| | 23 | $ cd samples/minimal |
| | 24 | $ make |
| | 25 | $ ./minimal |
| | 26 | |
| | 27 | You may also need to configure the library --without-expat. It didn't |
| | 28 | build last time I checked, but then again, several improvements have |
| | 29 | been made since then. |
| | 30 | |
| | 31 | For other samples, you will need to provide at the very least an empty |
| | 32 | resource fork so the OS will recognize it as a GUI application. |
| | 33 | |
| | 34 | From the debug build directory: |
| | 35 | $ cd samples/drawing |
| | 36 | $ make |
| | 37 | $ true | /Developer/Tools/Rez -t APPL -o drawing |
| | 38 | $ ./drawing |
| | 39 | |
| | 40 | Note that the empty resource fork doesn't actually allow the app to be |
| | 41 | started from the Finder (it thinks it's a classic app!) but does allow |
| | 42 | it to run with a menubar and proper event handling from the command line. |
| | 43 | |
| | 44 | I suspect (but am uncertain) that if we provided an empty plist resource |
| | 45 | that the app would be recognized as a proper OS X application. Obviously, |
| | 46 | bundles would be preferrable, and any work on Bakefile (see |
| | 47 | http://bakefile.sf.net/) would be much appreciated. wxMac also needs |
| | 48 | bundle building restored since the switch to Bakefile. |
