I'm trying to build LiveCode from source, and all the dependencies are checked, etc. until I get this error:
Code: Select all

** BUILD FAILED **
The following build commands failed:
PhaseScriptExecution Rule\ \"flex\" /Users/ghostpotato/Documents/Coding/LiveCode/livecode/_cache/mac/Debug/lc-bootstrap-compile\ Support.build/Script-C38A0E66FFB8AE0CEAA59024.sh

make[1]: *** [compile-mac] Error 65
make: *** [all-mac] Error 2
I have the SDK folder, named "macosx10.9", in the same folder as the source. Is this a known bug, and is there a way to fix this?

I think you have to copy (or symlink) the MacOSX10.9.sdk folder into the Xcode app bundle:
The location where LC expects to find this folder is:
Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/

That throws this when running "make" again:
Code: Select all

Hmm that's strange. This is what has worked for me:
1. Checkout "develop" branch and pull the most recent changes (and do a "git submodule update")
2. in the terminal type "make config-mac"
3. This will create a folder livecode/build-mac
4. Open livecode/build-mac/livecode/livecode.xcodeproj with Xcode
5. Choose "Automatically create schemes"
6. In the "Set the active Scheme" dropdown, select "LiveCode-all" and "My Mac (32 bit)"
7. Click on the "Build and run" button. This will build all the dependencies.
8. Now select "Development" in the "Set the active Scheme" dropdown.
9.Click the "Build and run" button. This should finally launch the IDE.
I hope this helps

This pretty much gives me my original error, but in Xcode instead of the command line:
Code: Select all

Which version of Xcode are you using?
Maybe it is worth trying a clean build:
1. Delete the folder livecode/build-mac
2. Delete the folder livecode/_build/mac
3. Delete the folder livecode/_cache/mac
4. Make sure there is a folder Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk/
Now repeat the steps 1-9 described in previous comment.
I am using Xcode 8.1, and have tried to remove Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk/ folder. Then, if I do steps 1-9 I get the following error in Xcode:
Code: Select all
error: There is no SDK with the name or path '/Users/panos/Desktop/github/livecode/macosx10.9'
The error disappears if I do steps 1-4 of this comment and then 1-9 of the previous one.
I hope this helps

I forgot to add:
step 0: quit Xcode

One more thing:
Between steps 6 and 7, do this one:
- In Xcode top menubar, choose "Product -> Clean"

Where and when do you get that error? Up to which step did you have success? Are you building from "develop" branch? Which version of Xcode are you using?

I get that error when trying to build with Xcode.
I had success from the command line up until it complained about a missing SDK after checking dependencies and downloading OpenSSL and such.
I'm building from https : / / github . com / livecode / livecode
(I have to add the spaces or it says I can't post links
)
I'm using Xcode Version 8.2.1 (8C1002).

I tried on a different machine with Xcode 8.2. I got the error "
Code: Select all
error: There is no SDK with the name or path '/Users/panos/Desktop/github/livecode/macosx10.9
'"
I tried the steps 1-4 and then 1-9 but still got the same error.
The error disappeared once I run the script
Code: Select all
livecode/tools/setup_xcode_sdks.sh
, as described here:
https://github.com/livecode/livecode/bl ... ild-mac.md
Note that in my case I had Xcode_8_2_0 instead of Xcode_8_0_0, as described in the instructions. So once I run this script, I did again steps 1-4 and 1-9 and I was able to build successfully from Xcode 8.2.

OK, this seems to have made it better. Now it's a problem with the LiveCode source, not me.
Code: Select all
The following build commands failed:
CompileC /Users/ghostpotato/Documents/Coding/LiveCode/livecode/_cache/mac/Debug/kernel.build/Objects-normal/i386/quicktime.o src/quicktime.cpp normal i386 c++ com . apple . compilers . llvm . clang . 1_0 . compiler
(1 failure)
make[1]: *** [compile-mac] Error 65
make: *** [all-mac] Error 2
That file, "quicktime.o", doesn't exist and there is no "src" folder in the GitHub source...
NOTE: For this chunk: "com . apple . compilers . llvm . clang . 1_0 . compiler" remove spaces; the forums think it's a URL.

What do you get if you type in the Terminal:
Code: Select all
cd /Users/ghostpotato/Documents/Coding/LiveCode/livecode
and then
?
