Have any of you guys bumped into this lib error yet?

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libexpat.1.dylib
Referenced from: /Users/.../Desktop/FreeOrion.app/Contents/MacOs/../SharedSupport/libgvc_builtins.dylib
Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap

I downloaded the FreeOrion 0.3.11 UB from sourceforge, and I started to get library errors. So I installed X11, and now i'm getting this expat.1.dylib error. I found a libexpat.1.0.dylib on my computer, but i couldn't find 1.0. Anybody mind pointing me to it, or perhaps giving me a hint?

Oh, btw, I'm running an old MBP, first hardware iteration with 10.4.

Update: Just downloaded the last version of the SDK you posted. Couldn't find any libexpat in it. Am I looking in the wrong place, or is this just a lib i should already have had?

I'm guessing 10.4 came with a different version of libexpat. I can probably distribute my library within the app bundle.

But before I change and re-upload, can you try temporarily copying (provided you're not overwriting anything) my version into /usr/lib
http://www.mediafire.com/file/h4zqimxj1 ... at.1.dylib

And tell me if any there's any subsequent errors?

Okay, I'm about to just give up. I'm barely Unix literate, so this proving to be quite difficult. I used "sudo cp usr/users/username/desktop/libexpat.1.dylib/usr/lib" command in the terminal (replacing username with my username obviously), and it keeps responding by saying that there's "no such file or directory.

So I decided to try and drag and drop it. I found usr/lib by using the finder search invisible option, and when i try that, it kept saying that usr/lib cannot be modified, even though i have read/write permissions on it.

Any suggestions are welcome, but for now I'm going to give up. Thanks for trying to help though.

The path to the desktop is usually /Users/$USER/Desktop, so the command syntax to try would be like:

Code:

sudo cp /Users/$USER/Desktop/libexpat.1.dylib /usr/lib

Don't worry much about it, I'll be updating this eventually and upload a new version you can try.

tried to resolve the missing libexpat in the version here
downloading the zip files and running the unpack-FO script will extract everything

Maybe it works now on OS X 10.4 in addition to 10.5 (still maybe not PowerPC's), let me know.

The path to the desktop can be shortened to ~/Desktop for the current user.

So: cd ~ would take you to your user folder (that contains folders: documents, desktop, etc.)

There will probably be a new release of FreeOrion soon, and it'd be nice if we could have a new Mac OSX version around the same time.

The previous page's discussion of putting the XCode project into FreeOrion's SVN repository and patching GG seems to have been forgotten...

Thanks for doing this! Ok, here's my take on your GG patch. I changed some formatting-type stuff, and s/NULL/0. Do these changes work for you? If so, I'll be committing these files as they are here, including your copyright. If you approve, I'll take this as written consent to release this code under LGPL.

Anything that's copyright from me, I didn't intend to have there.

I'm not sure if tzlaine saw that, but that's not a very clear response. Do you mean that all code you wrote and submitted in this thread can be released under the LGPL?

Do you know if it's allowed to release that code under the LGPL? It appears to be standard / boilerplate code that wouldn't be copyright, but the page doesn't seem to specifically say that it's free to use and redistribute.

That would probably be the best option.

Did you build GG with its SCons build system? It appears you did not, since I found "#ifdef FREEORION_MACOSX" in your changes to GG/Ogre/OgreGUI.h. Before I can accept this patch for GG's trunk, I'll need your assurance that the SCons build works. Otherwise, I'll stick this changeset in a patches directory in the GG repository.

I didn't use SCons. Considering a SCons build wasn't previously supported on a mac platform, I'll take you mean the changes don't break win32 or posix. And I'm fairly certain they don't, since everything would be preprocessed out and the aglGetProcAddress files do not even need to be looked at for those platforms. Would confirming a GG SCons build with this patch on linux suffice?

Glad, I checked this. There was a bug where I #ifdef instead of #if, use this patch for OgreGUI.cpp instead of what was in previous files:
[...]
These compile with SCons on linux and still in Xcode.

It'd be good to address this (tzlaine...?)

I've mashed together the changes and editing the FreeOrion part slightly for tabs -> spaces, and attached.

I thought tzlaine was saying he saw that there was an explicit copyright included somewhere in my submission, which would have slipped in there accidentally (you know how IDEs can sometimes put an auto-header with current user's info, including a copyright?). Maybe that's more confusing.

I do mean that everything I submit can be released under LGPL.

Yeah, Apple's not specific about that code but their website seems to indicate that all content is under copyright, requiring written consent for redistribution.
I'll write something to replace it.

I think the untabification put in the wrong number of spaces to make things line up pretty.
Also the GG patch got malformed (looks like the context lines got moved to start in the first column).

Think it's best that I just get a complete set of non-tabbed patches with the new OpenGL entry point code?

I think I've already got it done, but just want to check a couple things.

Yeah, I just replaced all tabs with four spaces in the patch, rather than patching my local copy, editing it to make the changes and be pretty, and making a new patch...

I copy and pasted from your forum post, so the forum formatting might have eaten some spaces.

That would be best.

I also stuck the posted XCode project into SVN. It'd be good if you could make sure that's up to date (assuming appropriate FreeOrion and GG patches are applied that it expects).

[edit] Also, the release is probably going to be delayed until the weekend or next week. kroddn is planning to wait until tzlaine puts up the Win32 release to make his linux binaries, to ensure the revision numbers are consistent. You might want to do the same.

Also also, I think one of the reasons for the delay is tzlaine wanting to fix how the the Ogre plugins are loaded. Presently they're shared objects / dlls loaded at run time after the program has started up some of the Ogre machinery, but I think they want to get them loading statically... This might be a slightly complicated fix for you, so I thought a heads up would be good. [/edit]

For this problem there is already solution in svn. If we want for example revision 3070(current svn is in revision 3071), then command

Code:

svn update -r 3070

gets revision 3070.

The issue isn't how to use subversion... My points was just that kroddn can't make a release that's the same revision as the one tzlaine releases until tzlaine finishes making changes and makes a release.

Here's clean patches. With an extremely simplified rewrite of code necessary to get OpenGL entry points.

One thing that I think needs particular review is the change I made in ShaderProgram::BindInts(). I thought the cast to (GLInt*) was appropriate going off the comment seen above the prototype saying that we're in the realm of GLSL data types, but maybe it's better to change that 3rd parameter to "const std::vector<GLint> &ints" ?
I'll admit - I haven't taken the time to fully understand this part.

Everything seems to be working fine so far with the latest revision.

I've only looked at the GG patch so far, and it looks good. I'd apply it, but first it needs to be integrated into the SCons build. I need to add src/Ogre/aglGetProcAddress.cpp to the build only if I detect an OS X build. Can you add a line "print Platform()" to the top of your GG SConstruct file and tell me what it says? I really don't know of another way to get SCons to tell me the platform, so if you find a better way, let me know.

You either look for it in env["PLATFORM"] or use python's sys.platform. On Mac env["PLATFORM"] will be 'darwin' AFAIK.

Actually, nevermind. I just added the aglGetProcAddress() function to OgreGUI.cc, and used "#if OGRE_PLATFORM == OGRE_PLATFORM_APPLE" as a guard around compiling it.
