Add macOS support

Add macOS support

Closed this issue 8 years ago · 3 comments

Now that I have a device for this, the support for macOS should be considered. So far, this script derived naïvely from the Linux one seems to be close to what is needed:

# Install required packages
brew install qt5 sfml
brew link qt5 --force
cd ~
curl -o bass24.zip http://us.un4seen.com/files/bass24-osx.zip
curl -o bassfx24.zip http://us.un4seen.com/files/z/0/bass_fx24-osx.zip
unzip bass24.zip -d bass
unzip bassfx24.zip -d bassfx
rm bass24.zip bassfx24.zip
# Set up the necessary environment
export BASS_DIR=~/bass
export BASS_FX_DIR=~/bassfx
export SFML_DIR=/usr/local/Cellar/sfml/2.4.1
# Clone this repository and compile the code
git clone https://github.com/soulweaver91/project-carrot.git
cd project-carrot
qmake -spec macx-clang
make release
# Move to the release folder and copy the BASS and BASS FX library files
cd Release
cp $BASS_DIR/libbass.dylib .
cp $BASS_FX_DIR/libbass_fx.dylib .

This works well, until the part where it doesn't compile 😛

make[1]: *** [Release/TileMap.o] Error 1

Things to add to repo or fix:

Fix the part where the code doesn't compile. It has to do with std::sort()ing TilemapLayers. Of course, that might not be the only part that needs fixing.
BASS FX is packaged differently for macOS for some reason, so $(BASS_FX_DIR) needs to be added to the INCLUDEPATH (and possibly elsewhere) in CarrotQt5.pro.
If only possible, setting SFML_DIR should be version agnostic. If a link is added for it somewhere, using that would be advised. (Does the apt package for Linux set this environment var automatically? It's missing from the Linux script.)
If this is still relevant, it'll be another issue to tackle as well.
When adding documentation for this, remember to mention that Xcode and Homebrew need to be installed first.

Answer 1 · 2016-12-14T15:52:20.000Z

Fix for the compile failure found and more progress done. New script:

# Install required packages
brew install qt5 sfml
brew link qt5 --force
cd ~
# Download BASS and BASS FX
curl -o bass24.zip http://us.un4seen.com/files/bass24-osx.zip
curl -o bassfx24.zip http://us.un4seen.com/files/z/0/bass_fx24-osx.zip
unzip bass24.zip -d bass
unzip bassfx24.zip -d bassfx
rm bass24.zip bassfx24.zip
# Set up the necessary environment
export BASS_DIR=~/bass
export BASS_FX_DIR=~/bassfx
export SFML_DIR=/usr/local/Cellar/sfml/2.4.1
# Clone this repository and compile the code
git clone https://github.com/soulweaver91/project-carrot.git
cd project-carrot
qmake -spec macx-clang
make release
# Copy Qt and SFML dependencies into the bundle (only necessary for distribution)
macdeployqt Release/CarrotQt5.app
# Copy the BASS and BASS FX library files into the bundle
mkdir -p Release/CarrotQt5.app/Contents/Plugins/
cp -r $BASS_DIR/libbass.dylib Release/CarrotQt5.app/Contents/Plugins/
cp -r $BASS_FX_DIR/libbass_fx.dylib Release/CarrotQt5.app/Contents/Plugins/
install_name_tool -change @loader_path/libbass.dylib @executable_path/../Plugins/libbass.dylib Release/CarrotQt5.app/Contents/MacOS/CarrotQt5 
install_name_tool -change @loader_path/libbass_fx.dylib @executable_path/../Plugins/libbass_fx.dylib Release/CarrotQt5.app/Contents/MacOS/CarrotQt5

After this, it starts up. The path it tries to find the files from is wrong, though, and as a result it bails out after failing to load the fonts.

Answer 2 · 2016-12-14T16:36:23.000Z

With the debug config that uses the current directory always, we're getting past that, but:

http://pastebin.com/BRq8aigD 💥

Apparently sf::RenderWindow::create((sf::WindowHandle)winId()); is what crashes it. There's some special code for X11 right above it, so maybe there needs to be a bit more of something for it to work properly.

Answer 3 · 2016-12-14T22:46:14.000Z

🎉

The question is, what was the relevant change when built via Xcode? The only new code difference was fixing the directory the resources are searched from.
