Hey guys,
I originally developed my game under Windows and, now that it is finished, I am trying to create an OSX build. I got it to compile, but there's 2 questions that I have:
1) How do I create a build which is not a debug build?
2) Where is my executable saved to?
1) From the terminal is how I do it: bmk makeapp -r yourSource.bmx
I'm sure there's a toggle in the IDE, but I refuse to use it.
2) /source/Path/appName
Thanks for the quick reply. I get a "bmk: command not found" error when I try to build the game from the terminal.
/mac newbie. temporarily comandeering someone's powerbook so I can compile this thing.
Well first you should probably add a symbolic link to bmk to your ~/bin directory.
Like so: ln -s /path/to/bmax/bin/bmk ~/bin/bmk
I don't know that Macs allow a per-user bin directory, but my Linux install does, and I'd assume you're able to add a user bin to the PATH. If you just want to modify the PATH, then you'd just do something like this:
export PATH="$PATH":/path/to/bmax/bin
Then you should be able to execute bmk from any directory (until you close the terminal).
Beyond that, I can't help much, since I no longer have my Mac. Worse comes to worst, I'd try the IDE even if it is downright evil.
