Mac Forum / Programming / CodeWarrior / December 2003Can't build CW8.3 libraries in Panther
Hi.... I've just added a new drive with Panther on it, and installed CW8.0, then updated it to 8.2 and again to 8.3, using the updaters I'd downloaded onto my old 10.2.x disk. After installing, it told me I needed to rebuild the CW libraries. So I did, but I get a bajillion errors. Primarily, they are that the <Carbon/Carbon.h> file cannot be found. Prior to building, I noticed that the projects themselves, when loading, issue errors that the access path "{OS X Volume}usr/include" cannot be found. I would guess that's the problem. But why can't the path be found? I am listed as an Admin user (and the only user in fact) in the Accounts setup. Is there some other permissions issue I need to address? I don't know if it's relatred, but prior to installing CW on my new drive, I did run my already existing 8.3 version that's installed on my old 10.2.6 drive, just to see if I could debug some stuff without having to re-install. (I couldn't, because the host application my code runs under won't run from a different startup drive...thus the need to install CW under Panther). Could this have caused the problem? I tried removing the Metrowerks preferences folder from my user folder tree, but that didn't help.. Neither did unmounting the old drive before starting CW. Anyone know why I'm getting this error, and how to fix it? Thanks... -Howard D'oh! <smacking forehead soundly>... stupid me forgot to install the Dec 2002 Developer's Tools! Ok, things are looking good now. Thanks, anyway. -Howard > Hi.... > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Admin user (and the only user in fact) in the Accounts setup.

You definitely don't want Dec02 tools on Panther. You want Xcode. meeroh  SignatureIf this message helped you, consider buying an item from my wish list: <http://web.meeroh.org/wishlist> > > stupid me forgot to install the Dec 2002 Developer's Tools!

And one of the vendors of the aiduo host software for which I write plug-ins says they don't yet support XCode in their SDK. Isn't it ok to stick with the Dec02 Tools for now, or is this going to cause real problems when running under Panther? > meeroh > > In article <brvilt$6gb@dispatch.concentric.net>, "Howard" > <alicebt@hotmail.com> [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > yet support XCode in their SDK.

If you have to use PB, you need to downgrade to Jaguar. What exactly it means not to support Xcode in their SDK is unclear to me. hth meeroh SignatureIf this message helped you, consider buying an item from my wish list: <http://web.meeroh.org/wishlist> > > > In article <brvilt$6gb@dispatch.concentric.net>, "Howard" > > <alicebt@hotmail.com> [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > meeroh I'm using CodeWarrior 8.3, not PB. Here's the quote from Digidesign, whose audio SDK I'm using: "...We do not have any plans in the near future to switch to Apple's XCode development environment, however we will let you know well in advance if that changes." This is after they mention moving to CodeWarrior9 in their next SDK. Looks like they're just talking about the "development environment", not the underlying code? In that case, I can safely add the XCode stuff. Which brings me to my other question...can I just install XCode on top of the Dec02 Tools, or do I need to somehow back that out first?

Great, thanks. Done, and all looks well. Thanks everyone. -Howard >Hi.... > [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > Anyone know why I'm getting this error, and how to fix it? Thanks... Get the XCode Tools CD, reinstall it, choose the optional packages and there is a 10.2.7 SDK install that, you can do this even after doing the original installation. In CodeWarrior 8.3 global Preferences... change your Source Tree for OS X Volume from / to /Developers/SDKs/MacOSX10.2.7SDK/ Then... this is an unofficial and non-supported fix. Since it involves changing Apple's headerIf you have to rebuild the libraries (not not for the headers) In Apple's Limits.h in /Developers/SDKs/MacOSX10.2.7SDK/usr/include/ppc/limits.h Change #ifndef _PPC_LIMITS_H_ #define _PPC_LIMITS_H_ #define CHAR_BIT 8 /* number of bits in a char */ #define MB_LEN_MAX 6 /* Allow 31 bit UTF2 */ #define CLK_TCK 100 /* ticks per second */ to #ifndef _PPC_LIMITS_H_ #define _PPC_LIMITS_H_ #define CLK_TCK 100 /* ticks per second */ #if !_MSL_USING_MW_C_HEADERS #define CHAR_BIT 8 /* number of bits in a char */ #define MB_LEN_MAX 6 /* Allow 31 bit UTF2 */ At the end of the file add #endif /* _MSL_USING_MW_C_HEADERS */ before #endif /* _PPC_LIMITS_H_ */ Rebuild the precompiled headers and rebuild the MSL Mac OS X libraries You should be OK SignatureMetrowerks wishes you and yours Seasons Greetings and Happy Holidays Get Geekware and Software http://store.metrowerks.com Shop our online store and get free shipping until Dec 31 Ron Liechty - MWRon@metrowerks.com - http://www.metrowerks.com > >Hi.... > > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > there is a 10.2.7 SDK install that, you can do this even after doing > the original installation. > Ron Liechty - MWRon@metrowerks.com - http://www.metrowerks.com Hi Ron, Not really a CodeWarrior issue anymore, but perhaps you can continue to help along this line...? I've already installed the December 02 Tools, and it seems to be working fine. Am I going to have problems in Panther using that? If so, do I install XTools OVER my Dec02 stuff, or do I need to do some kind of un-install? I'm also worried that at least one of the SDK's I use for developing audio plug-ins does not yet support XCode. Does this mean that I really can't support Panther until those SDKs are also up to date with XCode? Thanks, Howard |
