Yes, ANSI-branch is the current branch that I am working on. The master
branch is still for BP2 with Carbon GUI at the moment. I'll probably
wait for the release of BP3.0.0 to merge changes to master.
You can use either the makefile or Xcode. There's always a chance you
will run into trouble opening the Xcode project in newer versions than I
am using (8.2.1). At a minimum, you will probably have to change the
target SDK because the 10.6 SDK won't be included with Xcode. (I don't
think it was included with Xcode 8 either but I copied from an older
installation). You should be fine targeting the latest SDK for running
on your own system.
Thanks for sharing those IIgs links! Wow! ORCA/C was one of the C
compilers that I was thinking about in a previous post. I can't believe
that it is still being updated!! I was aware that ByteWorks, Inc.
software was still being sold 10 years ago or so, but I didn't know that
the source code was available for any of it. I have (an old version of)
the ORCA/M Macro Assembler for IIgs; bought it in 1989 when I was in
eighth grade. The IIgs programming manuals are sitting right here in
the room with me :) I think I am going to buy both of those Opus ][
collections with the latest binaries and sources. But not right away
because I don't want to get derailed from finishing BP3!! ;-)
That list of issues you linked to is very helpful. I can tell from that
list what some of the problems might be trying to compile BP console for
the IIgs. But it sounds more hopeful than I imagined!
Someone even wrote a compatibility layer that makes it possible to run
the ORCA family of dev tools directly from the commandline of a modern
Mac, Windows, or Linux computer! 8^O

So, Bernard if you wanted to you could configure Xcode to run the 8-bit
ORCA/M assembler and continue developing BP1 on your Mac in style! ;-)
Thanks, Rainer!!

Is that where one would build latest versions from? And if building on MacOS, would I also use the Makefile, or go full-play with Xcode? I am on Catalina with Xcode 11.3, I think. Just a week before I noticed the developments on bp, I had set my MacBook up totally from scratch, so there is no going back ;-)

And a script to run the tests in your first mail automatically. Unfortunately it doesn’t run in Windows, of course. Actually it might be possible to run that stuff from php? In that case cross-platform wouldn’t bee an issue. I hope you don’t mind, Bernard - if yes, I’ll remove it again (or I could make the repo private). I think you don’t work with git? If au contraire you welcome public availability you could send me an occasional snapshot and I would push that to GitHub. The nice thing about that is that you can easily synch on different build-machines. Although I have two computers side-by-side I actually push ’n pull from Github to transfer the repo from one computer to the other - this git stuff is just so well organised that I find that more straightforward than using samba, ssh or ftp in my lan ;-) I am actually pr
etty curious about your php progress, as I am currently trying to brush up my web capabilities, and I also face php stuff, so some learning from ground with a really interesting topic would be very welcome for me. I just need to get organised to split my time well.

I hope I got the right ones - who knows somebody bumps into it and get’s interested… But as I said, if you’d prefer keeping this under the radar for the time being, I can switch it to private any time. Btw. Github also allows collaboration in private Repos for free now… wink, wink ;-)
