Mac OS X : Dependency on X11? (E. Wing)

Are you using the official SDL.framework? We compiled in the X11
support by default because we were told that it would not adversely
affect anybody. Perhaps this is not the case? Maybe we need to change
this policy?

As for compiling the SDL.framework without X11 support, the Xcode
project already has target called “Framework Without X11 Stuff”. Just
select that target instead of the default one.

Hi E. Wing,
Yes I’m using the official SDL.framework. I came across this problem
because a friend has a brand new Mac Book with 10.4 on it and when he
ran a demo that I sent him, he got the X11 dylib error.

So where do I find this XCode project that allows me to build without X11?

Btw, do I lose anything by not having X11?

Also I think if X11 is optional, maybe having the dynamic linking option
would be best.

There should be an Xcode.tar.gz included with the source. Just extract
it and the Xcode project is inside.

You shouldn’t lose anything by not having X11 if you aren’t using
anything from it. If you were using X11 features, you would probably
know.> Yes I’m using the official SDL.framework. I came across this problem
