Hi,

I havn't the experience of running JDIC on MacOSX,but have you met any problem?

Basicly, put jdic.jar into your classpath,I think it will work well :) .

thanks,
Michael

I see in the source code that it has the mac_os_x so there is no real problem. But that version isn't available in binary form.

Hi,

Since we havn't Mac environment and we can't provide build for that. For users who want to run JDIC under Mac, they have to make a build themself. We'll be very appreciate that if anyone could provide us build under Mac and that will also help other users.

i can provide such builds. Is creating a issue with the binaries okay? Btw, please take a look at my patch https://jdic.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=315 for Mac OS X Universal Binaries.

What if we donated a Mac? I offered this a couple months ago but
received no reply.

I saw your offer last weekend as I spend again time for issue 222 (you will see more later this week).

I hope nobody understand me wrong, but i hope this offered mac go to someone how really develop on Mac JDIC support, and not only to get mac builds. As I wrote above, I also can provide such builds.

Hi Christopher,

Very glad to hear that you work again for issue222! I think I should give some updates about this issue. We've finished refactoring of web browser to integrate mac codes(issue 167 https://jdic.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=167)
As issue222 said, "The biggest problem now is that it doesn't support java plugin. So it still can't be integrated into JDIC."

I completely agree you on using of the offered Mac. In fact, we nearly haven't development experiences under Mac, so if some guys could provide supports under that will be great.
With Mac machine and Mac experts and develop on JDIC,I think that's our final target.

thanks,
Michael

Hi All
Is it possible that anyone can provide a build for jdic Web browser that works on Mac machine (Even if it doesn't support plugin)?
Many thanks in advance

That's an excellent point, Christopher. I think I can only convince my
group to donate a machine if it would be used to develop the JDIC
Browser component to work on Mac.

As for builds, a simple ssh account on an OS X machine will do. Has
anyone tried SourceForge's compile farm?
http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=762&group_id=1#hosts

They offer a G4 running OS X 10.2 Server and Fink.

Also, has anyone at JDIC given thought to a continuous integration build
system? Could be very useful given the fragility of all this JNI
stuff. We could use the SourceForge compile farm to build for each
platform automatically.

Hi Turadg,

Really many thanks to you! JDIC is an open source project and it needs more helps like yours!

For the Mac, we're very appreciate that you can do that and we've very glad to have one. I think we can talk some details about that, for e.g., way to access it.I think we can talk that by mail(michael_shan@sun.com).

thanks,
Michael
