can't install on Mac OS X

Question

can't install on Mac OS X

newellista opened this issue 13 years ago · 7 comments

FYI, I installed FirebirdSS-2.1.4-18393-x86_64.pkg.zip into /Library/Frameworks/Firebird.framework

I noticed that the install is looking for re.h. I'm not sure if that is supposed to be part of the Firebird install, but the /Library/Frameworks/Firebird.framework/Headers directory only contains:

cd /Library/Frameworks/Firebird.framework/Headers
lvoows07:Headers$ ll
total 624
drwxr-xr-x 6 firebird 204 Mar 14 07:52 ./
drwxr-xr-x 6 firebird 204 Mar 14 07:52 ../
-rw-r--r-- 1 firebird 1061 Mar 14 07:52 ib_util.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 firebird 202068 Mar 14 07:52 ibase.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 firebird 105754 Mar 14 07:52 iberror.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 firebird 2273 Mar 14 07:52 perf.h

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve

Version 0.6.7 (the latest on RubyGems.org) doesn't build against Ruby 1.9.x. The latest here on github has been building against 1.9.1 and 1.9.2 for some time now, but I haven't pushed it to RubyGems.org because, although it passes all the tests, it hasn't been run in a production environment. In particular, character encodings have not been addressed at all.

Answer 2 · 2011-08-10T15:23:23.000Z

Since I don't need character encodings, I'll give the latest a try. Thanks for your help.

Answer 3 · 2011-08-10T15:30:54.000Z

Couple of questions:

Have you or anyone else ever built this on a Mac? If so, any hints on getting it built? I run ruby extconf.rb and it is unable to locate isc_attach_database(). Suggestions?
Once I have it compiled, will I be able to access a remote database? Specifically, I'd like to run my ruby code on a Mac, at least during development, but it will need to access a database hosted on a Windows machine. Should that work? Or am I wasting my time.

Thanks again for your work.

Steve

Answer 4 · 2011-08-10T17:51:27.000Z

Yes, I develop it first on a Mac (although I haven't tried Lion yet) and test later on Linux and Windows.

Something about how Mac frameworks and Ruby work causes the library test to fail, but it still creates the Makefile.

You'll still be able to build and connect to local and remote databases, provided you have Firebird installed. I've not seen a Firebird client-only package for Mac.

Best regards,

Brent

Great. So, on Snow Leopard, how do I build and install it?

I ran the following:

$ ruby extconf.rb
checking for isc_attach_database() in -lfbclient... no
checking for isc_attach_database() in -lgds... no
creating Makefile
$ make
gcc -I. -I/Users/snewell/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p180/include/ruby-1.9.1/x86_64-darwin10.7.0 -I/Users/snewell/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p180/include/ruby-1.9.1/ruby/backward -I/Users/snewell/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p180/include/ruby-1.9.1 -I. -D_XOPEN_SOURCE -D_DARWIN_C_SOURCE -I/Library/Frameworks/Firebird.framework/Headers -fno-common -O3 -ggdb -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -Wno-parentheses -Wpointer-arith -Wwrite-strings -Wno-missing-field-initializers -Wshorten-64-to-32 -Wno-long-long -fno-common -pipe -DOS_UNIX -o fb.o -c fb.c

Now what?

do I run:

$ make site-install

??

Thanks,

"make install" will work. However, you may prefer "ruby fb.gemspec" and then "gem install fb-0.6.8.gem"
