SFML crash on MacOS 10.6

[Ceylo]

Uh you're right, I don't know why but I thought he was getting a crash on OS X 10.5.

[Acrobat]

i got the same crash with 10.5 

[Ceylo]

Do you mean when building against the 10.5 SDK or when trying to run the application on OS X 10.5 ?

[Acrobat]

Now i installed 10.5 Mac on VirtualBox and tried to launch my application (after i rebuild it with dylibs and latest sfml). Now my problem is this : http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=10445

The best would be a fork on github.

No, this one is different.

Great, I'll have a look.

after i rebuild it with dylibs and latest sfml

Just to be sure, could you precise with which SDK did you compile it ?

[Acrobat]

sdk 10.8, target 10.5

[Acrobat]

Moving next.
I linked everything with "-weak_library /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib", problems with unresolved symbols gone, now other problem (on 10.5 OSX under VM) :

what happen when you compile SFML with 10.5 SDK ?

[Acrobat]

i don't have it 

[Ceylo]

You can get it from previous Xcode installation packages and put the 10.5 SDK next to the other ones for your current Xcode installation.

[Hiura]

Note: if you don't want to install both Xcode 3 and Xcode 4, do as follow :

Download xcode_3.2.6_and_ios_sdk_4.3.dmg from connect.apple.com, mount the dmg, go to /Volumes/Xcode and iOS SDK/Packages and run MacOSX10.5.pkg, then move /SDKs to /Developer/SDKs. Next in CMake set CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET to 10.5 and CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT to /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk. Now you can rebuild SFML.

EDIT: or, like Ceylo said, you can move the SDK to /Application/Xcode.app/..../SDKs.

[Acrobat]

Just tested on 10.6.8 , everything is Ok. Think that the problem with 10.5 is that i launched it inside VirtualBox, what do you think ?

[Acrobat]

I don't think that using old SDK is a solution, there will be many problems with compilation.

[Hiura]

No, compilation works. I did it myself...
