OS X compiling error. wscasecmp not declared.

[jikij]

Hello,

I tried to compile pyrogenesis on OS X 10.5.8 (intel), but I got many errors.

Most of them were complaining that wscasecmp was not declared.

Some of the files where wscasecmp was not declared were:

source/ps/Filesystem.cpp

source/ps/Util.cpp

source/lib/file/file_system_util.cpp

source/lib/file/archive/archive_zip.cpp

...

In 'source/lib/sysdep/os/osx/osx.cpp' 'wstring_from_string' was not declared.

I did also get an error in 'libraries/spidermonkey/include/js/jsotypes.h' about a conflicting declaration of uint64. I got this error when I compiled last time, and it seems like I am not the only one who got this error. Why has this not been fixed, by adding the simple fix suggested in http://www.wildfiregames.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=12593?

Good luck

For wcscasecmp, that should be straightforward to fix - filed as #414.

For wstring_from_string, that's trivial so I've fixed it in SVN.

For uint64, does the problem go away when you apply that patch to the game's libraries/spidermonkey/src/js/src/jsotypes.h (instead of a system version of the library)? (It's not clear to me from the forum post you linked to, and I can't test it myself.)

The problem with uint64 goes away when I patch '...trunk/libraries/spidermonkey/src/js/src/jsotypes.h'.

How can I fix the errors caused by wcscasecmp and compile successfully?

[Ykkrosh]

Thanks, I've committed the change to jsotypes.h now so hopefully that'll work without manual patching.

wcscasecmp just needs somebody to fix it . I won't have time to write it and test it myself in the next few days - if someone writes a patch for it then that'd be great, otherwise I could look at it soonish.

wcscasecmp should be fixed now. (Can't test on OS X myself, so let me know if there's any problems!)

Any developments on this jikij?
