[AppleTV] Compiling crystalhd-for-osx Lib/Kext

Jimmer · 2010-01-05 17:03

Hi,

Have checked out the latest SVN (as of 5/1/10) of crystalhd-for-osx. When making the lib I keep getting errors because of a missing 'bc_dts_glob_osx.h' file in the include directory.

There is a 'bc_dts_glob_lnx.h' file in /include - is the file that should be referenced? Or is the correct file missing? Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere - did a search, but maybe I'm the first?

Scratch that - have tried compiling using bc_dts_glob_lnx.h instead of bc_dts_glob_osx.h, but predictably it wouldn't compile! Thought maybe it was a misslabled osx header, but must be the actual linux version of the header...

Guess there really must be a missing file in the svn....

Seems it's just been added with revision 11!

and... ** BUILD SUCCEEDED **

yes, fxed, at Committed revision 11. Current version is svn 12 which sets the compiler to gcc4.0 as compiling under 10.6 , the default compiler is gcc4.2.

Ah yes, I also encountered that. Thanks for fixing

Just to be clear - this will compile on a G4/G5 PPC mac with XCode 3 installed? I've successfully compiled other things for the ATV on these systems before, just wanted to make sure I'm not missing anything vital!

the lib makefile might need some (-arch i386 or something like that). XCode is perfectly capable of cross-compiling i386 on ppc. patches welcome Smile

Just to be clear, kext compiles for i386 as-is on a PPC. I have compiled it successfully and kextloaded on the ATV to make sure it loads/unloads. So successful on that front with no faffing about!

I have put the -arch i386 flag in the makefile and compiled it on my trusty old ibook, it successfully compiled I think - but I cannot test if the compiled lib files work until my card arrives from Hong Kong (should be any day now) will report back when it arrives!

Skunkworks:~ davilla$ file /usr/lib/libcrystalhd.dylib
/usr/lib/libcrystalhd.dylib: Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386

should see the i386 ref.

Thanks Davilla!

Confirmed...

ibookg4:~ jim$ file libcrystalhd.dylib
libcrystalhd.dylib: Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386

Hope for those of us without intel macs!
