I compile the forte under macos, but when compling it with Xcode, it seems part of the source still point to poxis architecture

It does, because MacOS is POSIX compliant for the larger part.

maybe adding forte_add_sourcefile_hcpp(../utils/timespec_utils) in src/arch/macos/CMakeLists.txt could help

oh yeah, thanks Jose.
Seems that I missed adding this to the MacOS build back then

Joy, Martin,

If you don't mind could you please post what versions of OS X and Xcode your using to compile Forte Runtime on MacOS and possibly your folder structure and CMake generate options.

I have tried both Cmake methods of using Xcode and unix makefile + command line tools but encounter numerous errors during build/make.

I have tried Xcode 10.3 on OS X 10.14.6 (Mojave) as well as Xcode 12.5 on OS X 11.3 (Bigsur).

To name a few compile errors:

FORTE_LITE
fortenew.h
'Replacement function operator new cannot be declared inline'

threadbase.h
'non-type template argument does not refer to any declaration'

forte_thread.h
'unknown type name 'TThreadHandleType'

fdselecthand.h
'use of undeclared identifier start'

Your feedback would be much appreciated.

Hi,

can you provide us the full compile output. I tried to google a bit with what you posted above and I can not find a cause. Most probably there are some compiler switches that need to be changed. But without more information I have a hard time finding these.

Has anybody tried compiling 4diac FORTE with llvm/clang recently?

Hi Prof. Zoitl,

Thank you very much for your response to my post.

I have attached the output of both an Xcode compile and Command Line 'make' compile using unix make files. I have uploaded them as .pdf as to keep the formatting and colours. For the Xcode output I issued the Xcode build command from the terminal so i could easily capture the output, errors are displayed in a project tree format within Xcode - hard to copy to text, but the build errors/warnings are identical. I could post some screen captures from inside Xcode if needed.

Both times the only CMake options I adjusted were:

FORTE_ARCHITECTURE = MacOS
FORTE_MODULE_CONVERT = TRUE
FORTE_MODULE_IEC61131 = TRUE
FORTE_MODULE_UTILS = TRUE

For Generator [Unix Makefiles] i also added
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE = Debug

I did not add/adjust CMake_build_type for Generator [Xcode].

Both of the attached outputs are from an x86 Mac, so as to not confuse the issue between apple architecture changes and new options in Xcode now that Apple Silicon (M1 cpu) is supported.

Currently I am successfully running the 4diac IDE on both x86 MacOS and Apple M1 aarch64 MacOS. I am running FORTE (forte.exe windows binary) using CrossOver for Mac (commercial WINE style emulator) on Apple M1... it all works perfectly but being able to compile a native (x86 or aarch64) would be so much better.

On a side note, keep up the amazing work you are doing in the industrial automation sector and your open source and platform neutral approach :)

Thanks again. Alex.

thanks for the full output. It could be that pthread_t is defined differently on MacOS. Could you try changing the line 31 of src/arch/posix/forte_thread.h to

class CPosixThread : public forte::arch::CThreadBase<pthread_t, 0, forte::arch::EmptyThreadDeletePolicy> {

And thanks for your kind words.
