Building/compiling CodeLite on MacOSX 10.6.2 (Intel)

[wuffe]

Hi,
I'm trying to build CodeLite on MacOSX 10.6.2 (Intel)

The Makefile generated by "configure" needs some modifications to the variables (in the top of the file) - for the build to work:

< OPT= -O3 -DREGEXP_UNICODE
---
> OPT= -m32 -O3 -DREGEXP_UNICODE

< GCC=gcc
---
> GCC=gcc $(DEBUG) $(OPT)

< WXCFG=--unicode=yes --debug=no
---
> WXCFG=--unicode=yes --debug=yes

With these modifications (above) the build seems to run.
But after (a while) building 100's of object files the build process stops - below it the last ~20 lines of the build before the error:

make: *** [Release_gcc_unicode/regex_processor.o] Error 1

Now I guess that the release builds for macosx are propably done at macosx 10.5.x - but did anyone succeed building CodeLite itself at latest and greatest macosx 10.6.2 ?

Tests are done at lastest trunk extract (-r3533) - but have ben failing like this for weeks/months.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards Uffe Jakobsen

UPDATE:

Took a different approach:

Dropped the manual changes to genererated Makefiles and modified the ("configure") script generating the Makefiles...

With these changes wxRE_ADVANCED was still a problem: changed the code in "Plugin/regex_processor.cpp" referring to "wxRE_ADVANCED"...

It appears that this was the only problem because now CodeLite builds on MacOSX 10.6.2...

Reason for changes to the "configure" file:
Since MacOSX switched from default 32-bit in 10.5.x to default 64-bit in 10.6.x the Apple supplied (default) gcc/g++ compilers now produces 64-bit object files if not told otherwise with the -m32/-m64 switches.

As far as I can see my changes are portable - I hope that you'll accept the diff below for the "configure" file...

PS: Regarding the diff for Plugin/regex_processor.cpp below: I really do not know if I like it or not - due to lack of knowlegde I cannot really see the consequences of my change...
