Arggg SDL _main undefined. Please help!

[m3the01]

Background

Full working application developed under linux with opengl, cg, sdl

Just switched to a mac book pro, been waiting for an update in hardware and it came:-)

Now i downloaded the xcode development kit, which i was told will load most lib's i need.

Im using g++ compiler and a makefile for builds,

I downloaded the cg, sdl and sld_image frameworks and they are all installed in the root library/frameworks section

Ive downloaded the runtime and the devel-extras from the sdl site. I dont really see much in the sdl_devel-extras besides those sdlmain.h and sdlmain.m files. I attempted to include them in my project directory and in my main class with #include "SDLMain.h"
#include "SDLMain.m"

But i get a crazy amount of errors,

Here is a copy of my makefile and the error i get,

[m3the01]

really appreciate the help,

Ive been to the page already, i include the two files with zero luck. They give me a crazy amount of errors if i include SDLMain.m and SDLMain.h

I grabbed the SDL-devel-extra and it has a folder called sdlmain with three internal folders.
Cocoamenus
CustomView
Nibless

They all contain SDLMain.m/h files, which ones am i suppose to use?

Really new to mac, got most of my programs working except for this one.

I also noticed i posted this in the wrong forum location, sorry about that!

You should #include SDL.h, and you should have SDLMain.h visible by your project, and compile SLDMain.m with your project. Your main function should follow the prototype int main(int argc, char **argv) as well.

[m3the01]

Question do i need to install the sdl, sdl_image and Cg frameworks in the system/library/frameworks section of the disk?

Cause right now they are only in the library/frameworks section, they are not present int he system/library/framework area.

Thanks for the help

[m3the01]

No problem here is my main from galaxy,

#include <SDL/SDL.h>
#include "SDLMain.m"
#include "SDLMain.h"
...

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
...
}

I get a lot of errors doing this.

[m3the01]

I also tried the unix install as per instructions on sdl and have no luck even with that install. I had everything working in the first 8 hours of getting my mbp except for this, now 5 days later im still fighting a loosing battle and i have a big demo for another department on thursday.


Not really sure what else to try,

Steven

[m3the01]

Got the unix install done as per sdl instructions,

Slight problem with the build file for sdl,

changed
-I/usr/X11R6/include -> -I/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4U.sdk/usr/X11R6/include

Now will see if she works,

[OneSadCookie]

Don't #include SDLMain.m, it's a source file, not a header. Don't #include SDLMain.h, either.

Just make sure that <SDL/SDL.h> is included in main.cpp, and compile SDLMain.m as an additional source file.

Whilst you're at it, get rid of all the -F arguments in your compile lines.

And no, don't stick any X11 stuff in your include or lib paths. That's a bad idea.

[m3the01]

Thanks buddy,

Your the man,

Reading over so many tutorials argg.

Youve been a big help,

Here where we are at now,

Look better?

Added
-Framework Cocoa and now everything works perfectly.


Yes!~

[m3the01]

As another note,

All my fragment programs and vertex programs worked perfectly, all the sdl stuff perfect.

On my home computer,

Dual Xeon 2.8ghz, 2g rdram, scsi 15k and bfg 7800gs 256mb i got 60fps and on the new mbp 2.4ghz, 2g ram, nvidia 8600 g 256mb and the sata 5400 im getting 48fps so im pretty happy. Really impressed with this notebook. My buddies linux xps 2.16 nvidia 7400 could only pump out 28fps with the same application. Plus we know these drivers for the 8600 suck right now, so pretty impressed mac boys!

Also very impressed with the forum, u know your macs!

Thanks for the help

Don't change anything in /System (except for installing kernel extensions). It isn't wrong to put SDL, SDL_image and CG in either /Library/Frameworks or ~/Library/Frameworks, but when you ship the program, it's best to put them in the bundle under Contents/Frameworks, so that your users don't have to install those frameworks themselves.

[m3the01]

Yeah thats what i was thinking, just like when i use to pack the usr/lib directory on other builds.

Thanks
