Re: [hatari-devel] Hatari 1.6.1 test build for Mac OS X

["Stefan Meier" <stefan_meier99@xxxxxx>]

Might be hard to find ready to use frameworks for the required libs. For libpng there is a precompiled framework available here: http://ethan.tira-thompson.com/Mac_OS_X_Ports.html (although even this one is actaully outdated). For the other libraries I didn't find up-to-date frameworks.

So I guess we would need to build the frameworks ourself (easy with SDL, perhaps not so easy with the other packages, never tried this before).

Another option would be to bind statically with the libs (if supported). I think this would require a new xcode project without cmake? (I must confess I am not familiar with cmake and it is a little bit confusing)

BTW, I tried to make a build with the 10.5 SDK, but failed, because some functions names in the readline seem to be named different (on 10.6 it is _rl_complete_function, on 10.5 it is only complete_function). Did you compile your build on Leopard?
