SFML with Xcode on OS X Lion
« on: January 02, 2012, 09:45:07 pm »
Hi there,

not so long ago I was having issues with SFML and Code::Blocks. I decided to use Xcode from now on. The problem however, is that the steps mentioned on http://www.sfml-dev.org/tutorials/1.6/start-osx.php don't seem to work on Lion. The paths apparently aren't the same anymore on OS X Lion. I tried pasting the folders into similar-looking directories but the templates aren't showing up in Xcode, so I'm guessing they're in the wrong place.

Where should I paste them into? I'm using the latest Xcode version with SFML 1.6.

Thanks in advance :)

SFML 1.6 templates are for Xcode 3.x and are not compatible with Xcode 4.

You still can create a command line application and link manually to SFML 1.6 like you'll do for any library (see Apple's doc about Xcode 4.)

These templates are not maintained anymore because SFML 2.0 will be out in the near future. If you want you can already get SFML 2 current dev version from github. You'll find some templates for Xcode 4 there.

When it's done. The main thing we were waiting for is done. It's looking like as soon as the new timing API and Laurent's "surprise" are ready, it'll be released. So within the month, I would think. Don't quote me on that, though.
I use the latest build of SFML2

Exactly.

But then I'll probably release a RC, and while people play with it I'll rewrite the tutorials. So expect a little more than one month maybe.
