Perhaps I can cross build the lib from a linux box... ?

Yes, but that's a lot of work.

Might be worth it.

Would you mind upgrading to Xcode 2.5?

What's required to go to 2.5? Most tools are dead-ended for 10.4.

2.5 should work on 10.4.

I'm pretty sure that's what I used to build the above sample.

Does Xcode have an update button?

No idea.

Here;s a direct link:

So, 2.5 worked for you?

(You'll need an "Apple ID".)

Unfortunately I don't have the exact machine I tried not handy at 
the moment. But I know it was a 10.4 OSX and I know that the above 
"exports.tar.gz" worked.

I'm pretty sure I used the most recent Xcode available for Tiger, 
which seems to be 2.5.

odd msg in login...

This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons.

I can have Cindy setup a new devl account... but I suspect this will 
all lead down a road that will cost me a lot of time.


I don't see why cross building from Linux or BSD is a problem.  It's 
just a lib, not an app.

Because setting up the cross compiler is a lot of work.

You need to download and rip apart Xcode, amongst other things.

(Check your PM.)

How would I know? I  built such a cross-compiler before:
$ uname -sm
Linux i686
$ gcc -dumpmachine
i486-linux-gnu
$ i686-apple-darwin9-gcc -dumpmachine
i686-apple-darwin9

Right, but it's just elf, isn't it?

The only dependencies are minimal.

OSX is Mach-O.

Ah... so there's the rub.

Ever try an elf-to-mach-o converter?

Nope.

But I only know of one, in any case.

And that'd still need a Mach-O linker.

(Agner's "objconv" is the one I once stumbled across: http://www.agner.org/optimize/)

I'm not seeing my Dev_Event device's RDC_QUIT vector being called 
when I exit r3 with a 'q' from the command line. I do see the RDC_INIT 
vector being called.

hmm, i don't think any of the RDC_QUIT vectors are called, iirc

what are you going to use for the event device? some amiga-ism?

yes, setting up a timer at the moment

the current event device uses some windows-ism

yes

i have a dirty hack somewhere for linuxisms :)

using libevent

and integrated into the network device

the Dev_Event device has a #ifdef TO_WIN32 on it

took me a while to figure out why no events were happening... heh 
:)

do you have select(2) on amiga?

if RDC_QUIT isn't working should I file a bug report?

i think so, yes. even if it is not a bug, it'll help clarify when 
the quit callbacks are actually supposed to be called.

yes, there is select() available

I didn't think I would need it for handling gui events

won't help you much with windowing, i guess

amiga is much more like windows in that respect

you have a message loop :) ?

yes, very much like the windows one
