Hi people: I am asking for help with squeakDBX in mac. Yes, I am one of the developers, so ? heheheheh
The thing is that Michael Atkisson is trying to getting working and have problems. As I know very little about mac, I ask for help.
The problem is that FFI is not founding the openDBX library. The error is the famous "unable to find function address'".
This is his enviorment:
Image: the 201 core, updated using the system update.
Squeak vm: 3.8.18beta3U.app
OS: Mac osx 10.5.6
FFI instaled from here:
http://map.squeak.org/accountbyid/cf58c358-46ee-465e-b6db-2740e9b32a53/files...
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/lib/:/usr/lib" .....
PATH=/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:other entries ....
Check the property SqueakPluginsBuiltInOrLocalOnly in Info.plist de la VM
was in true but changed to false.
The ls of the directories of /usr/local/lib and /usr/lib are above.
We also try to put the openDBX library in the directory where is the VM or
the image, but the same.
- I read this: http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5846
Is this true ? I mean, FFI doesn't support dylib ? what can I do in this case ?
Hi Mariano,
I am not a Mac user, but I think that this wiki page has some out of date information, and the last paragraph is a correction to say that the Mac VM does suppert dylib. So it *should* work.
Thanks for all the help you can give us.
Unfortunately I do not know enough to say what the problem is. Hopefully others will give a better answer.
