#19 Patches to build 2.4z on MacOS X 10.2.x or 10.3.x
The following patches to autoconf stuff seem to be
enough to build the 2.4z distribution on MacOS X 10.2.x
(Jaguar) with Xfree86 and Tcl/Tk 8.4.1.

You only need these patches to build BLT 2.4z with Apple tools on either
10.2.x or 10.3x. Do NOT use any other patches with them.

Hi Bill,
Any chance you could resend as a patch instead of a diff?
Thanks,

It already is a patch! Just copy the diff out of your browser, and save as
say 'bltpatch.txt'.
Then cd into the top level of the BLT2.4z source tree and do:
patch -p2 < somepath/bltpatch.txt
autoconf
See 'man patch' the wonders of UNIX!
If you are having a good day, it should then build.

Hi Bil,
That's what I thought :)
But saving it from the browser must be introducing some
changes in the text (including line feeds and html
conversions). These changes result in patch complaining
about a malformed patch at line nine. Even after doing the
obvious html transformations on less than, greater than, and
double quote, it still has problems.
Could you attach the patch as a file?

Bill,
Do all of the demos work with this patch applied?

As far as I remember, all the ones I tried worked, but that was not many.
Such problems as exist are probably in Tk rather than BLT.
The patch is only to the build system not the code of BLT.
We have a pre-alpha Aqua version of BLT (X11 not needed) built to work
with Aqua Tcl/Tk but it needs more work. I was sort of waiting for
Gordon to finally release BLT 3.0 before bothering with that.
If you want a binary, check out www.swarm.org and code repository on
Savannah.

Bill,
Sorry, this was all my mistake. I was trying to build BLT
against Aqua/Tk instead of X11/Tk (ie, Aqua/Tk - what tcl
and tk make when you build from their macosx directory).
The only demos that don't work for me now are those that
have bad hard-coded paths.
Nice work!
Best regards,
Tom

I didn't have any issue extracting the text and regenerate the patch file, so I've posted it up to help close out this tracker. See http://ftp.brlcad.org/~sean/sf_patch_663450_blt24z.diff
Cheers!

This is not a patch and is worthless as it is. Please *attach* a file when posting a patch or it gets munged.
After much pain, I've cleaned this up and posted it. Download at: http://ford.anth.wsu.edu/~bdford/swarm/blt2.4z-osx-patch
