[Openexr-devel] Problems building MacOS CodeWarrior version

[Darrin Cardani]

I'm running into some problems building the MacOS version with 
CodeWarrior. I've successfully built the eLut and toFloat projects, 
and saved their output where appropriate. When I opened the 
ExrTests.mcp file, it told me for each target in the project that 
{Project}../ExrLib/build directory didn't exist. However, that 
directory does exist.

I decided to try to build it anyway, so I selected the Build All 
Carbon target, and pressed the build button. Of course, it generated 
an error for zlib.h, which I hadn't downloaded. So I went to this 
URL, which the docs gave:

http://www.cdrom.com/pub/infozip/zlib/

and was redirected to this URL:

http://www.simtel.net/simselects.php

which does not appear to contain the zlib source. A search on Google lists:

http://www.gzip.org/zlib/

as the first site in a search for zlib, for what it's worth.

It mentions in the docs that the Mach-O version can link against the 
zlib which comes with OS X. Why can't the CFM version link against 
it, too? (Is it a Mach-O library? I link against Mach-O stuff in CFM 
all the time.)

So that's as far as I've gotten at this point. I've downloaded zlib 
1.1.3, but haven't built it yet. I was just wondering if other people 
have run into these problems, or if I've set something up incorrectly?

Also, would others be interested in having a MacOS CodeWarrior 
project which builds the Win32 version? If so, I might try putting 
one together once I figure out all the problems I'm having with the 
Mac version. It could theoretically even be combined into the MacOS 
project file, if you wanted.

Thanks,
Darrin
