It appears that 2 above average users replied directly to me and not to the list. Interesting since your steps complemented each other. Thank you, you anonymous heros. But I think the entire list would have benefited since 2/3 of you replied without sophomoric l33t remarks. Maybe the intention of the 1/3 was to welcome me to the list with a trolling attempt. I will let my post and his reply speak for themselves.
<br><br>To those who are helpful:<br>Well wine-0.9.15 failed to build on AMD64 Ubuntu running VMware Player running Intel x86 Ubuntu.<br>Due to one of the helpful replies, I noticed that wine-0.9.15 had something new in that release for the Mac. I didn't even know Wine proper was available for the Mac. I thought I'd have to wait for Darwine. As building on the Mac is my ultimate goal, I tried it. Running ./configure on the Mac instructed me to make some changes. Then the build and install went well. But the existing notepad did not run.
<br><br>Anyway, wine-0.9.16 builds and installs on both the above platforms. But when I try to make notepad2, they both fail at the same point with:<br>winegcc -c -mno-cygwin -I. -o dialog.o dialog.c<br>winegcc -c -mno-cygwin -I. -o
main.o main.c<br>wrc -I. -foBg.res Bg.rc<br>Bg.rc:21:24: (Ubuntu: Error: syntax error) (Mac: Error: parse error)<br>make: *** [Bg.res] Error 1<br>Do you have any advice for me here?<br><br>From the notepad2 directory, I ran "wine ../notepad/notepad.exe.so" on both platforms.
<br>I got:<br>err:imagelist:ImageList_ReplaceIcon no color! (4 times)<br>Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded. (2 times)<br>(Ubuntu) The X11 driver is missing. Check you build! (2 times)<br>
(Mac) Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly. (2 times)<br>Do you have any advice for me here? It's been ages since I had to set the DISPLAY, and never on a Mac.<br><br>wine-0.9.15 fails to make notepad2 on the Mac in the same way as on
wine-0.9.16 on the Mac (Bg.rc:21:24: Error).<br><br>Anyway, my ultimate goal is to build a console (non X11) application on Mac OSX and I need to link with a 3rd party .lib which even statically linked uses a dll. I learned this week that that is not a contradiction in terms. Are there any console apps to test in the programs directory?
<br><br>Is there anywhere specific I can find instructions to build my own console app that needs to link (statically or dynamically) against a 3rd party .lib and run it while having the .dll available?<br><br>Although things have not gone smoothly, I'm going to continue with Chapter 2 of the Winelib User's Guide.
<br><br>Regards.<br>
