Iglass install problems for Mac

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Programming/Iglass install problems for Mac

Has anyone had any trouble in installing IGlass for the Mac? When I install, it comes up with a debug error and something about an 'ld' error. I've installed Iglass on Windows in exactly the same way, and it works.

can you show us the enitre error? I had an issue after updating modules once.

ld: table of contents for archive: /Applications/BlitzMax/mod/pub.mod/igl.mod/igl.release.macos.a is out of date; rerun ranlib(1) (can't load from it)
Build Error: Failed to link /Users/Rich/Development/IGlass/Example IGlass Demo


Try (from the command line):

bmk ranlibdir /Applications/BlitzMax/mod

fixed the problem for me

Yes it's a blitzmax know bug GameBoy try the Scott stuff.

Because personaly i have tested with success Iglass on Mac , Pc,
Linux :)

Thanks guys. I shall check that out when I get home and provide some feedback :)

Sounds silly, but how do I get the bmk to work? I've used it in Windows, but I'm new to the Mac and couldn't get it to work from the CLI.

Launch command line (TERMINAL app) on mac osX and
type without "" :

"bmk ranlibdir /Applications/BlitzMax/mod"

Thanks, shall give that a try :)

The terminal comes up with "BMK: command not found". Does anyone know why this could be?

It's a litle bit normal boy .... like MSDOS you must go to
in the correct dir before type your command ! use CD command
and got to this directory /Applications/BlitzMax/bin/

And next type the previous command.

Find doc on google : mac how to use terminal

I tried using the cd command, and got to the BlitzMax bin directory, but the BMK command still doesn't work. I'll keep to using the Windows version for the moment - the Macs been a heap of trouble since I got it :(

after going to the folder, you may have to call it like this:

./bmk instead of just bmk ?
