Title: Error obtaining wxMac via CVS
Post by: jchiar on January 03, 2008, 09:42:22 PM
Hi,

Trying to compile aMule on Mac os 10.5.1

Following the wiki it states to do the following

bash: cd ~/Desktop
bash: cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.wxwidgets.org:/pack/cvsroots/wxwidgets login
Note: password is 'anoncvs'
bash: cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.wxwidgets.org:/pack/cvsroots/wxwidgets checkout wxMac

However all i end up with is a folder in ~/Desktop called wxWidgets. No wxMac like is stated.

Here is my screen


mac:Desktop joe$ cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.wxwidgets.org:/pack/cvsroots/wxwidgets checkout wxMac
cvs server: Updating wxWidgets
U wxWidgets/.cvsignore
U wxWidgets/BuildCVS.txt
U wxWidgets/Makefile.in
U wxWidgets/acinclude.m4
U wxWidgets/aclocal.m4
U wxWidgets/autoconf_inc.m4
U wxWidgets/autogen.sh
U wxWidgets/config.guess
U wxWidgets/config.sub
....


Any ideas why i cant checkout wxMac?

I can't help you with your problem (ask the wx people), but if you want to compile aMule, please use the latest stable build of wx. Compilation of aMule with developmental version is currently not guaranteed.

wxWidgets moved to svn some time ago. check their website.

Hi jchiar,

One word of advice: if your intention is to run aMule and compile wx yourself with debug information, Do Not use their CVS/SVN version. It is unstable as hell, not to mention that you will probably find more bugs of the library than in aMule.

If you want to use it with aMule, please use a stable tarball.

Cheers!
