[platform-dev] building on OSX

[Bill Dudney <bdudney@xxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I'm sorry to ask this here (its got to be in an FAQ somewhere) but I 
have spent about 4 hours looking for info on how to build on OSX after 
not finding anything I decide to try it out and see what happend. I'm 
not sure I'm doing this right but here goes, I downloaded the version 
of the code that fetches everything and modified the following;

build - added macosx and carbon as possible args for os & ws 
respectively
build.xml - had alot of file not found problems. had to change each 
instance of <ant buildfile=... target= ... dir=.../> so that the 
buildfile was simply build.xml instead of the path (could be because of 
ant 1.5 (that I'm using) fixing the pathing in the ant target, did not 
look into another version of ant to test, but I'd be glad to if it 
would help).

I'm not quite completely up and running yet so any pointers would be 
very helpful.

After I get things up and running I would be glad to write up a quick 
note and send it in for a commiter to post somewhere if it would help.

Thanks again for any assistance that you can offer.

TTFN,
