[wxCL-devel] Mac OS X Tests

[<mis...@we...>]

Dear wxCL-developers!

I worked with wxHaskell for a few months now but as my application got 
bigger and bigger I finally reached the point where I wanted/needed a 
more flexible and dynamic language. I am interested in Common Lisp 
since I wanted to write bigger apps, so this was my first look. I think 
with wxCL there could be a good starting point now. My goal is to write 
open source-apps and commercial apps as well, depending on the kind of 
app. So it's important for me to be able to build standalone-, 
multiplatform-apps (with GUI).

This is why I would like to help the wxCL-project. What I can do -- and 
what I have to do if I want to write some wxCL-apps that are useful for 
me -- is to test wxCL on Mac OS X. I can do this with OS X version 10.2 
and 10.4. CLISP + wxCL worked well on Windows XP but I couldn't get the 
wxCL-librarys "asdf-ed" on OS X so far. I need some help. First of all 
I don't really know what path I should write into the constant 
+library-name+ in clisp-wrappers/wxCL.lisp. For example I have a 
"libwxc-0.4.dylib"-file in my wxhaskell-lib-dir. Sounded good, but I 
got the message "*** - Condition of type ASDF:MISSING-COMPONENT." when 
I tried to asdf the system with this file as dynamic loaded library. I 
guess I should compile the stuff in wxc/ into a dylib, but there's only 
a win-makefile. Sorry, Im not clever enough to do this by hand. If the 
dylib is the file asdf means with "missing component", this is what I 
need help with. If not, there must be some other problem.

Thanks,
bened
