Re: [Bug-apl] build warning on OSX

I believe I know what's going on.

OSX is case insignificant, but case-preserving. This means that the files foo and FOO are actually the same file. This is usually not a problem, but it's completely opposite to how Unix is supposed to work, and is caused by backward compatibility with OS9.

I think what happens is that the repository has a historical file called script.apl and a newer revision containing SCRIPT.apl. This seems to confuse the OSX svn since it believes these are the same file.

I'll test this later on my own mac once I've had my dinner. :-)

Regards,
Elias

First I deleted the previous folder (directory) and then did a brand new svn co of the trunk followed by the usual ./configure and make.

There is a script.apl file in /workspaces but not a SCRIPT.apl one.
Even my backup does not have one.

Other than documentation it appears in the /workspaces Makefile and Makefile.am

I'm confused….
