Hi John, thanks for the log.
The errors you are getting are someone typical in a porting situation.
The covtool_helper.c file must use a non-pooled allocator for the line references table. I've forgotten why now, but the the file defines a macro, REENTRANT_ALLOCATOR(T) that is supposed to evaluate to the stand alone memory allocator, rather than the default memory allocator object used by...

Sorry I wasn't clear about rules.Darwin. On my machine, uname returns Darwin, which is why I gave the file that name.
I put the log file here: http://jdtangney.com/log
Thanks!

Hi John, I'm not at home now, but the way my rules files work is to call uname and use that as the file name extension for the rules.* file. What does uname produce? copying the rules.linux file to rules.`uname` file.
Send me a log of the error messages too, if you don't mind. Here's what I'd do:
make 2>&1 | tee log
then you can see the errors as the come out and it saves...

Lowell, Thanks for the swift response!
You are right: Mac OS X is a BSD variant with a Mach kernel (cf. Linux kernel) and any Gnu tools you want. The default built-in tools are gcc, make, etc. It really is just a plain vanilla POSIX with Gnu. It's closer to Fedora/Debian/Ubuntu than Solaris.
Unfortunately, I don't know enough about the way Mac OS X does dynamic libs so I can't give you...

Hi John,
No, I have not ported to Mac.
When I first wrote covtool, I had it ported to windows and the unixes, but at this point, I only know that it works on linux.
Note that I don't currently support multi-threading either -- although I'm about to fix that.
There are two compiled parts of the covtool: 1) the runtime helper, and 2) the instrumenter.
The instrumenter is...

I just heard about covtool and am very excited about its potential!
Has anyone successfully built covtool on Mac OS X? If so, would you mind contributing your rules.Darwin file?
Thanks!

Hi Goodmoody,
I believe that you should be able to get covtool to compile on windows but have not tried to do so in a long time. The unistd.h file contains many of the same definitions as the io.h file does on windows.
However, there are a couple of issues you will have to deal with:
1. the covtoolhelper.obj file should probably be linked as the first .obj file in the executable...
