Panther and SDL -- NSInternalInconsistencyException

SDL Development
1

Hi,

I'm new to the list, so I apologies if this has been mentionned before. I

took a quick look in the archives and didn’t see anything similar …

I'm currently starting some work on my Master in CS and a part of the

project requires me to implements some tools that will work on Windows,
Linux, FreeBSD and MacOSX. SDL seems a logical choose for this. I’ve got
everything working on Windows, and almost everything on Linux. MacOSX is
giving me a huge headache …

After doing some reading for hours, I've managed to compile a small example

(thanks to sdl-config). However, when I run it on MacOSX, I get several
"Object autoreleased with no pool in place errors" and then crashes with a "
Uncaught exeption: Error (1002) creating
CGSWindow Trace/BPT trap ". Being new to MacOSX, I have not idea what that
means. Searching on newsgroups has revealed one person having the same
problem (posted yesterday) and no solution.

What I’m using:
MacOS X 10.3 Panther (almost fresh install)
SDL 1.2.6 compile from source
G++ 3.3 20030304 Apple Build

I want to stick to makefiles to make everything as portable as possible.

Thanks for any help.

Alexandre

See last post about SDL_main.

Alexandre,

Many people have had this problem. Check that you are linking to
SDLMain (should have -lSDLmain on the link line), and that your main
routine is renamed to SDL_main (#include SDL.h in main.c). sdl-config
should be doing this for you, but apparently it is not.On Dec 13, 2003, at 3:02 PM, sdl-request at libsdl.org wrote:
