5 Build on OS X - ID: 1230592

Last Update: Comment added ( dsmiley )

Details:

It'd be nice if JavaReadline had a more flexible build system, like an
autoconf-based one.

Specifically, I'd like it to build out of the box on my OS X machine.
It's a pretty normal one, as far as OS X machines go:

- GNU readline is installed in /sw/lib and /sw/include (via fink)
- Linking is done via "gcc --dylib", not "gcc -shared"
- The shared library should be installed to /Library/Java/Extensions/
libsvnjavahl.jnilib
- The jar should be installed to /Library/Java/Extensions/libreadline-
java.jar

There should probably be a note in the readme also that, on OS X, if
readline is not found (it isn't shipped for licensing reasons), a "sudo
fink install readline5" will make it go. Assuming you have fink
installed, which most people do.

I use Mac OS X and got here via http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GROOVY/Running hoping to simply build this thing and install it for use with Groovy. I have been unsuccessfull and I don't know what to do. I'm using CVS head, and I tried to install it (using OS_FLAVOR = MAC in Makefile) but ultimately I got errors. After a bunch of warnings from "ld", I got: /usr/bin/libtool: internal link edit command failed make[3]: * [../../libJavaReadline.jnilib] Error 1 make[2]: * [JavaReadline] Error 2 make[1]: * [native] Error 2 make: * [build-native] Error 2 Ah well.

It will probably take me a couple of days more to get chance to test it enough to submit a patch. If you're interested: it is based on the existing makefiles and the built in Mac OS X readline implementation (which is actually JavaEditline, but is installed in a slightly funky manner). I'll send a patch to the developers and post it to this FR in the next few days.

Ah well.
