XCode project

Post by learner »

The XCode project is presently separately maintained from the autotools build system (i.e. running autogen.sh, configure, and make on the command line). Due to limited resources, the XCode project is only occassionally sync'd up so that it works. The project is usually repaired right before a release. Pulling from CVS HEAD, however, means that it's very likely that it will not work.

I've simply not got enough resources and time to maintain the XCode project so that it is always in sync. I'm of course _very_ interested if someone else would like to help keep the project building.. See me or brlcad on IRC in #bzflag on irc.freenode.net.

That said, the fixes to get the XCode project to work is usually just a matter of adding/removing files that have recently been added. As this is the main issue most of the time, I'm wanting to move the XCode project to simply be a wrapper for the autotools build system -- the only trick being to have the autotools build system optionally generate an .app bundle automatically.

Cheers!
