[simspark-devel] simspark with kerosin

[Oliver O. <Oli...@ne...>]

Hi,

I've just tried to compile simspark with --enable-kerosin on Mac OS.  
After applying a couple of fixes I was able to compile everything,  
but then I was wondering if or why the current CVS version compiles  
with kerosin and Linux. In particular, I had some problems with the  
configure check for the SDL on Mac OS, because the SDLmain.m is  
missing on the Mac OS version of the pre-compiled SDL framework (as  
these libs are called on Mac OS), and hence the check for linking a  
tiny SDL application fails in our configure.

Even though SDLmain.m / .h may not be missing on a Linux system, they  
still have to be compiled (which was not part of the current  
configure script)...

Anybody with compile results for the WIN32 branch (and --enable- 
kerosin) on linux? (before I commit the changes to the SDL-test...)

cheers
Oliver

P.S.
Besides the SDL stuff, there were a couple of more fixes necessary  
for Mac OS (getting the GL Extensions works differently in Mac OS,  
and some includes too; the glXGetProcAddressARB needed to be  
implemented because it didn't exist, and some other stuff). Anyway,  
it compiles now for me, but it is completely untested and needs a  
cleanup before I can commit it (I've been working on the WIN32  
branch). I will try that tomorrow.
