New Mac OS X version of aMule?
« on: August 21, 2007, 11:48:05 PM »

Any hint about when the new Mac OS X version of aMule will be ready?

I mean, the CVS works great. Why not make it a final stable version?

Thanks.

I've tried to compile a universal binary of a prerelease version of aMule 2.2.0. (As in: This is not aMule 2.2.0, but it is nearly the same.)

Please test it and report any problems. (It's 40MB, because we need good backtraces if something goes wrong...)

First-Look Issues:

- UPnP isn't working (libupnp.so should probably included in the Application Bundle)
Code: [Select]
2007-08-23 22:45:20: UPnP.cpp(89): Universal Plug and Play: error(CDynamicLibHandle): Unable to dlopen libixml.so.2. Check PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
2007-08-23 22:45:20: UPnP.cpp(89): Universal Plug and Play: error(CDynamicLibHandle): Unable to dlopen libupnp.so.2. Check PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
2007-08-23 22:45:20: UPnP.cpp(89): Universal Plug and Play: error(CDynamicLibHandle): Unable to dlopen libupnp.so.3. Check PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
2007-08-23 22:45:20: UPnP.cpp(193): Universal Plug and Play: error(CDynamicLibHandle): Unable to dlopen one or more UPnP component libraries. Check PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
2007-08-23 22:45:20: amule.cpp(1015): CUPnPException: error(CDynamicLibHandle): Unable to dlopen one or more UPnP component libraries. Check PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
- Preferences Window takes 5-7 Seconds to open
- Main Window is enlarged too big, because the right bottom edge isn't visible, resizing is only possible when maximising first
- spellcheck in the log is activated O_o
- still doesn't look very shiny ;)

UPnP:
Here you go with the files after compiling, but you'll have to rename some files, because aMule expects Linux file names. Also I don't know where to put them.

I don't know what causes this delay in preferences, I've been looking at this code for the past days (On Windows, there'll be pointers to 0x01 created, which cause a crash on opening the prefs), but I can't find what's wrong.

Spellchecker: I guess that's standard on Mac OS X, please fill a bug report (bugs.amule.org) and I/someone will have a look at it later.

Look: Hey, we've got a new skin system! Create a nice Mac skin (take care of copyrights; help in the wiki) and it will look better already. Else, please specify the problems compared to other Mac apps for a Linux user with OpenBox.

The window size is too big, I need to press the green window button to make it fit my screen. I have 1024x768 res, that's common on the old iBooks.

Also, the toolbar flickers a lot in the start. That makes the window change size as it flickers. I can easily reproduce this by pressing the disconnect/connect button.

An other issue is that if  I want to insert a link in the ed2k link field, it doesn't work if it's too long for one line. I almost have to completely remove the name of the file to get it to work.

I haven't really run it a long time, but it seems to work fine, I'm on a PPC mac and 10.4.10

Is it just me, or doesn't aMule publish on the Kad network? I've had no requests for my files, and I just tried to download some files using mlnet, but it didn't find me on the Kad network. I have a high ID so that shouldn't be a problem. I'm not connected to any ed2k servers.

Same here, as stated. I have a new MacBook Pro with 1240x900.

Also noticed this, didn't mentioned it (filed under "wxMac sucks" ;) )

me neither (haven't tried in the system-folders, but almost every place in the application folder) :(

Work fine on my Mac G4 350 MHz!
Some movie downloading... :-) And I haven't noticed any errors yet!

P.S. I don't think this "window is too big" error is really "error"...

Noticed 3 bugs:
1. Skins don't work:
I put the KDE4 skin, posted on this forum into ~/Library/Application Support/aMule/skins, it appears in drop down list in Options->Gui tweaks, but icons dont change, even after restarting amule.
2. Window flicks and changes size randomly right after start and after disconnecting or connecting to ED2K server manually.
3. Event section in Options window is distorted (see image).  Distortion disappears after resizing window and comes back after selecting another event

Once again I'm puzzled. Is there any output in the log when you try to set a skin? I've been trying to find an error in the code, but everything looks fine.

I can't help you with number 2 and 3, I'm sorry.

No, nothing considering skins in the log. Guess, that has something to do with Mac wx-widgets port, because on my Ubuntu box everything's ok.

I'll give you later a build with more debug output regarding the skins, man, how I dislike wxMac...
