Mac OS X Project Builder Files

SDL Development
1

Hi. I’m trying to get a ‘Project Template’ working in Mac OS X Project Builder
for SDL Applications. (The pkg looked like it was supposed to include a
template, but i only saw the Framework/library). When i go into the CVS and
pull out the PBProjects.tar.gz it looks like it’s just the project file for
making the library itself.

I’ve made a somewhat working template for SDL on my own. But not all of the
macros works correctly. If someone could help me out perhaps we could include
this in future releases of SDL and install it as part of the pkg file.

You can take a look at it at:
http://www.orangetide.com/sdl/macosx/SDL%20Application.tgz

I have a dmg.gz version as well incase tar lost some of the resources
information.–

SDL does come with a template already. It is installed by the pkg
installer. Are you sure you downloaded the “devel” package? The user
package doesn’t include it.

Yes. I installed SDL-devel.pkg for SDL 1.2.3 (it’s marked as 1.2.4 on the
site, but it looks like 1.2.3 in the installer).

It only has frameworks. There is not a project template file installed
anywhere. There is not a project template file in the CVS either. If someone
actually made it, it would be great if it was included on CVS. I only see the
project files for the SDL project itself.

My project template so far has a main.c in the template which has just enough
code in it to get SDL initialized, basically insert-your-code here comment to
mark where you can put your real SDL code. I saw no such example file on the
CVS either so i suspect it doesn’t exist.

I see from your website you do a lot of OSX programming, you actually have a
project template on your machine? (are we even talking about the same thing?)–

Jon,
I created the original templates/stationary for Project Builder.
By template/stationary, I mean the selections available when you choose
"New Project" or “New Target” in Project Builder. They are in CVS in the
PBProjects.tar.gz archive. If the installer works correctly, they should
be installed into /Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Project
Templates/Application/ and /Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Target
Templates/SDL/

We have had problems with the installer in the past which I thought I
fixed in the last release cycle, but there may still be bugs. If the
installer screwed up, the templates are probably still stuck in
/Developer/Documentation/SDL/.

Cheers,

Yes, as Darrell stated, they are in…

/Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Project Templates/Application/ and
/Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Target Templates/SDL/

One thing to look out for is using /Developer as a symlink to
somewhere else. Apple’s installer is NOT smart about this, and will
overwrite the symlink. For example

/Developer is a symlink to /Volumes/Dev/Developer

SDL installer puts templates in /Developer but tromps your symlink so
you now have:

/Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Target Templates/SDL/ (the ONLY
stuff in this copy of /Developer will be what the installer put there)
and
/Volumes/Dev/Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Target Templates/ (NO
Templates here)

sorry. I’m not seeing any such thing in PBProjects.tar.gz on CVS. I only see:

PBProjects/Project Stationary/Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Project Templates/Application
PBProjects/Project Stationary/Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Project Templates/Application/SDL App
PBProjects/Project Stationary/Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Target Templates
PBProjects/Project Stationary/Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Target Templates/SDL
PBProjects/Project Stationary/Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Target Templates/SDL/Application.trgt

none of these actually show up as a new project selection. the file:

-rw-r–r-- 1 orange users 532 Feb 11 15:58 SDL\ App

does not appear to be a real template file and it is not recognized by project
builder from the 2001 Dec CD w/ current 2001 Update.

This is PBProjects.tar.gz 1.17 from cvs in SDL12/

I belive you guys that it exists, i just can’t see it.On Sun, Apr 21, 2002 at 05:28:14PM -0500, Darrell Walisser wrote:

You are correct. The files were there at one point and now they have
disappeared. The fixed files should be in CVS soon.
