| Hey all, can someone please tell me how to create a .app from a blitzmax source file? Cheers |
| ||
| You can't. ARM Support thread. |
| ||
| can you buils any form of standalone application for the mac os X (ppc) and how? |
| ||
| To build BlitzMax source files to OS X compatible PPC executables, you need to have a PPC Mac, with BlitzMax installed on it, i.e. you can't cross-compile Mac PPC programs from Windows/Intel Mac. |
| ||
| You might want to use the search function : this might help and this and this tutorial and more |
| ||
| so only intel based macs can run a standalone application built from blitzmax on a ppc? |
| ||
| To build a standalone app for ppc mac, run Max on your ppc Mac and hit the rocket (build) button. The executable will appear in the same directory as your bmx files. |
| ||
| so only intel based macs can run a standalone application built from blitzmax on a ppc? No. An Intel Mac can run both PPC and Intel executables. A PPC Mac can only run PPC executables. PPC BlitzMax will only build PPC Executables Intel BlitzMax will only build Intel Executables. PPC Executables on Intel run in an emulation mode, therefore they aren't as fast. |
| ||
| Ohhhhh I just figured it out, I had debug build mode on, creating a .debug file instead of ppc executable, confustion over. cheers anyway :) |
| ||
| Did we figure out if its even possible to build a PPC app on an Intel Mac? Wasn't there an issue with the compilation tools/GCC etc creating intel binaries? |
