"make" not compiling -- Snow Leopard
Don't really know who to turn to here, so I'm coming to you. I used to be able to very easily compile ChucK (plus the mini in a recent post) but "make" doesn't seem to be working for me now that I've got Snow Leopard. Would the new OS override or delete some previous compiler? Related but sort of unrelated question: why won't the xcode project for ChucK work? I get an error that it's missing its project.pbxproj file. But if there's a chuck.xcode file, it would seem that someone somewhere is building ChucK with xcode. Any takers or either of these? This is sort of an either/or question--if you fix one of my problems then I'll stop caring about the other one. Andrew

I don't know this for sure, actually I know very little about Mac's, but I seem to remember xcode is based on GCC. The latest versions of GCC became more strict about syntax, which is already affecting our friends on Fedora and will likely soon get through to Debian/Ubuntu as well. If Apple is going to update xcode a sensible moment would be to do it while releasing the latest version of their OS. That's my gut feeling, it might be way off. If that would be it a flag in the makefile might fix it, see; http://electro-music.com/forum/viewtopic.php?&t=36259 Also; writing "it won't compile", while interesting, should probably be appended by a log or list of errors or symptoms. Now we have to guess; the above is a educated guess, but it's still just a guess. If that's it then we're good as that means it's a known issue, there would be a workaround and most likely the Devs should be able to fix it. Yours, Kas.
Oh, okay, I get:
~bash: make: command not found
and that's it. I'll see if maybe there's a gcc update, or if maybe it
got deleted or something when I upgraded? The thing is, I set it up
initially so long ago that I don't remember if I had to download some
special compiling thing to make it make. (ha!)
Thanks for the pointer toward gcc/xcode upgrades. As for the
chuck.xcode file, I'm just wondering if anyone has ever compiled ChucK
on xcode, and how.

Ok so you need to install "make", that's the program used to manage the building of a lot of software, including chuck. I never used a mac, so I don't have any clue how to do that. -- Atte http://atte.dk http://modlys.dk http://virb.com/atte
Andrew: It appears that you might need the OS X Xcode development environment. See: http://developer.apple.com/technology/Xcode.html (And no, I have not compiled ChucK using xcode.) - Rob On 11 Sep 2009, at 08:30, Andrew C. Smith wrote:

Wait, make disappeared altogether? Whoops, yes, that would be a different sort of issue. make should certainly come with the "special compiling thing". Did the disks of snow-leopard come with the xcode suite? I'd probably simply try re-installing the thing, that should bring make back, I'd say? I have no idea why or how it would be getting lost in the first place, OS upgrades shouldn't touch stuff like that, I feel. Oh, and i also wouldn't take advice about OSX from me :-).

You might still run into that later on... :-) Kas.
Oh yeah, probably should have updated you all on my progress here.
Yes, make was deleted, which is why I was so confused. I didn't even
know make COULD be deleted.
Apple released a new version of XCode yesterday (I had an older one),
so I'm just downloading the upgrade (instead of installing from the
10.6 DVD). Good thing it's 1 GB and a slowish download--might actually
force me to get some work-related work done. Still interested if
anyone has compiled ChucK on XCode, though. There are no .xcode files
for the mini, but there's a .nib file which leads me to believe that
someone build the mini interface using the Apple interface builder
that comes with XCode.
