Mac OS X support [message #11517] Mon, 29 May 2006 18:21 Go to next message

Hello,

I read through the development plan on the project web site. I didn't
see anything ruling out (or in) support for Mac OS X. Right now,
though, only Linux/GTK and Windows builds are posted to the download
section. Is there work planned or underway to begin building for OS X
as well? And/or is a helping hand needed there?


I did try creating a build environment and running EPF on my Powerbook.
I checked out the R1_0_M3_BRANCH. I only got as far as trying to
create a new method library. At that point, I got an error dialog, saying:

"IUPL0300E: Unable to open the specified method library.

Reason:
The selected method library folder is invalid, does not exist, or you do
not have the proper permission to access it.

Click OK to select another library folder."

I went and looked at the directory in which it attempted to create the
library; it exists, is empty, and I have read/write/execute permissions
on it.

The following exception was logged to the console.

MultiFileResourceSetImpl.cleanUp(): removed resources: []
org.eclipse.epf.persistence.MultiFileIOException: Could not rename
'/tmp/EPF/_di6kcO8-Edql0tBiwE3BCwnew_diJvcO8-Edql0tBiwE3BCw' to

I'm happy to RTFM if someone can point me at the right manual. Any idea
where I might've gone wrong?


Thank you,

I believe I have a little more information on the exception from the
post below. I believe the problem is the call to File.renameTo() a few
lines before the exception is thrown. It seems that on some platforms,
renameTo has problems moving files across partitions. In my case, the
/tmp directory is on a different partition than the /Users directory, so
renameTo gives up and returns false.

I hope I'm not overstepping my bounds here, but I created a bugzilla
entry for this:

Hi Jeffery.

You are doing the right things. OS X is not currently on the project
map. This does not prevent you and other OS X users from making and
submitting the needed changes as patches through Bugzilla. You can also
create your own OS X build for other community members to try. If there
is enough community interest for an OS X build of EPF Composer, the team
might pick it up and make it an officially supported platform.

I would like to have EPF Composer on my PowerBook as well. :)

Thanks,
Jim

Hi Jeffery.

You are doing the right things. OS X is not currently on the project
map. This does not prevent you and other OS X users from making and
submitting the needed changes as patches through Bugzilla. You can also
create your own OS X build for other community members to try. If there
is enough community interest for an OS X build of EPF Composer, the team
might pick it up and make it an officially supported platform.

I would like to have EPF Composer on my PowerBook as well. :)

Thanks,
Jim
