Has anyone managed to get dbg-cli to compile on OS X? Any tips would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Feel free to post the problems you encoutnered here

./configure - works fine
on make -

Looks as simple as libreadline missing or something. Used to linux and it being there

Thanks.

I think the post below is relevant to the problem
problems-compiling-dbg-cli-t514.html

I think its just a matter of specifying where the libs are

i have readline.h and history.h in /sw/include/readline/

How do i tell configure where to look?

Thanks

Grrr. I've changed the code to use an absolute path to readline and history

/sw/include/readline/...

and now i get a whole bunch of

/sw/include/readline/history.h:120: error: syntax error before `(' token
/sw/include/readline/history.h:124: error: syntax error before `(' token

Help!

must be a broken readline, then
Where did you take it from ?

readline is fine. It's part of the fink os x tree and it is used in other stuff which compiles fine with it.

I've just downloaded and built readline from elsewhere. Still the same problem.

if readline is fine, why there are so many errors in its file ?

If there are so many errors why does it build properly and other stuff which uses it build properly

I am having problems as well. After fixing the path issues for finding readline, etc. in /sw and not /usr, I know get the following:



I have tried reordering the -I flags, but to no avail. Any help out there?

Thanks!

Since there is getopt() available with unistd.h, it's easier to remove #include getopt.h from all the dbg-cli sources
