well I tried to use the -F/pathtoframework/... -framework GLUT, but it failed immediately because it didn't recognize -F. I figured out that "./configure --help" gives you a list of valid options:
CODE
$ ./configure --help
`configure' configures this package to adapt to many kinds of systems.
Usage: ./configure [OPTION]... [VAR=VALUE]...
To assign environment variables (e.g., CC, CFLAGS...), specify them as
VAR=VALUE. See below for descriptions of some of the useful variables.
Defaults for the options are specified in brackets.
Configuration:
-h, --help display this help and exit
--help=short display options specific to this package
--help=recursive display the short help of all the included packages
-V, --version display version information and exit
-q, --quiet, --silent do not print `checking...' messages
--cache-file=FILE cache test results in FILE [disabled]
-C, --config-cache alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'
-n, --no-create do not create output files
--srcdir=DIR find the sources in DIR [configure dir or `..']
Installation directories:
--prefix=PREFIX install architecture-independent files in PREFIX
[/usr/local]
--exec-prefix=EPREFIX install architecture-dependent files in EPREFIX
[PREFIX]
By default, `make install' will install all the files in
`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/lib' etc. You can specify
an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' using `--prefix',
for instance `--prefix=$HOME'.
For better control, use the options below.
Fine tuning of the installation directories:
--bindir=DIR user executables [EPREFIX/bin]
--sbindir=DIR system admin executables [EPREFIX/sbin]
--libexecdir=DIR program executables [EPREFIX/libexec]
--sysconfdir=DIR read-only single-machine data [PREFIX/etc]
--sharedstatedir=DIR modifiable architecture-independent data [PREFIX/com]
--localstatedir=DIR modifiable single-machine data [PREFIX/var]
--libdir=DIR object code libraries [EPREFIX/lib]
--includedir=DIR C header files [PREFIX/include]
--oldincludedir=DIR C header files for non-gcc [/usr/include]
--datarootdir=DIR read-only arch.-independent data root [PREFIX/share]
--datadir=DIR read-only architecture-independent data [DATAROOTDIR]
--infodir=DIR info documentation [DATAROOTDIR/info]
--localedir=DIR locale-dependent data [DATAROOTDIR/locale]
--mandir=DIR man documentation [DATAROOTDIR/man]
--docdir=DIR documentation root [DATAROOTDIR/doc/PACKAGE]
--htmldir=DIR html documentation [DOCDIR]
--dvidir=DIR dvi documentation [DOCDIR]
--pdfdir=DIR pdf documentation [DOCDIR]
--psdir=DIR ps documentation [DOCDIR]
Program names:
--program-prefix=PREFIX prepend PREFIX to installed program names
--program-suffix=SUFFIX append SUFFIX to installed program names
--program-transform-name=PROGRAM run sed PROGRAM on installed program names
X features:
--x-includes=DIR X include files are in DIR
--x-libraries=DIR X library files are in DIR
System types:
--build=BUILD configure for building on BUILD [guessed]
--host=HOST cross-compile to build programs to run on HOST [BUILD]
Optional Features:
--disable-FEATURE do not include FEATURE (same as --enable-FEATURE=no)
--enable-FEATURE[=ARG] include FEATURE [ARG=yes]
--enable-debug Produce an executable with debugging symbols
--enable-pedantic Enable -pedantic (and -ansi for C) when compiling
--enable-profile Produce a profiled executable
--disable-sdl Disable detction and use of SDL
--disable-sdltest Do not try to compile and run a test SDL program
--enable-stencil-buffer Use if your hardware has a stencil buffer
Optional Packages:
--with-PACKAGE[=ARG] use PACKAGE [ARG=yes]
--without-PACKAGE do not use PACKAGE (same as --with-PACKAGE=no)
--with-x use the X Window System
--with-tcl-libs=DIR Location of Tcl library
--with-tcl-lib-name=NAME Tcl library name
--with-tcl-inc=DIR Location of Tcl header files
--with-tcl-header=NAME Tcl header filename
--with-sdl-prefix=PFX Prefix where SDL is installed (optional)
--with-sdl-exec-prefix=PFX Exec prefix where SDL is installed (optional)
--with-gl-libs=DIR GL/MesaGL library location
--with-gl-lib-name=NAME GL library name
--with-glu-lib-name=NAME GLU library name
--with-gl-inc=DIR OpenGL header file location
--with-glut-libs=DIR Location of GLUT library
--with-glut-inc=DIR Specify GLUT header file location
--with-data-dir=PATH Default tuxracer data directory
Some influential environment variables:
CC C compiler command
CFLAGS C compiler flags
LDFLAGS linker flags, e.g. -L<lib dir> if you have libraries in a
nonstandard directory <lib dir>
LIBS libraries to pass to the linker, e.g. -l<library>
CPPFLAGS C/C++/Objective C preprocessor flags, e.g. -I<include dir> if
you have headers in a nonstandard directory <include dir>
CXX C++ compiler command
CXXFLAGS C++ compiler flags
CPP C preprocessor
XMKMF Path to xmkmf, Makefile generator for X Window System
Use these variables to override the choices made by `configure' or to help
it to find libraries and programs with nonstandard names/locations.
so basically what I need to do:
./configure --with-gl-inc=DIR --with-gl-libs=DIR --with-glut-inc=DIR --with-glut-libs=DIR
and it should work (or get past this point at least). However, I do not know where the glut library is. I found this thread that deals with it, but the command that they say works does nothing for me:
The threadI tried using the OpenGL libraries in place of the glut libraries, and I tried putting the GLUT exeutable as the glut library. Both had the same error.
So how do we get configure to use a framework instead of the library-header setup it normally uses?
Headrush, have any more bad ideas?
btw, I'm not sure if the OpenGL problem was totally solved, because I get this:
configure: WARNING: GL/glext.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: GL/glext.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: GL/glext.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: GL/glext.h: section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: GL/glext.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING: GL/glext.h: in the future, the compiler will take precedence
PS: I got ahold of the original XCode project, but it keeps failing with "revise code to use <stdargs.h> instead of <varargs.h>". I shall read up later....
