Move closer to allowing an "out of the box" distributable build for Mac:
* fix the icon for the .app
* link SDL2 statically, a PR has been sent to the original repo here:
https://github.com/tcbrindle/sdl2-cmake-scripts/pull/9
* link SFML statically
TODO:
For a releasable build on OS X, system libs must be linked
dynamically while third party libs are linked statically or bundled. The
goal is to link them statically.
The two remaining libs that need static linking are PNG and wX.
For PNG a similar approach to the one used for SDL2 using pkg-config
should work fine and be simple to implement.
For wX things are more complicated. The default build of wX does not
include static libs, I will need to submit a PR for Homebrew to change
the default build to include both dynamic and static versions.
Add Homebrew and MacPorts paths for findings headers and libraries.
Add -x objective-c++ to the C++ compile command so that conditionally
compiled ObjectiveC code for OS X can be supported.
Throw a fatal error if the user tries to enable ENABLE_ASM_CORE,
ENABLE_ASM_SCALERS or ENABLE_MMX on AMD64, as this is not supported yet.
If ENABLE_ASM_SCALERS is enabled, try to find a Homebrew or MacPorts
nasm before using the outdated XCode nasm.
For the future, if the user has only the old XCode nasm which does not
support 64 bit objects and the build is 64 bit, throw a fatal error.
For 32 bit builds with the old XCode nasm, use -f macho instead of -f
macho32, which is used if the version of nasm is > 2.0 .
Pass -DMACHO instead of -DELF and, on AMD64 (for the future) -D__AMD64__
for nasm on OS X.
Pass -D__AMD64__ to C++ compilation as well on AMD64, this will help
when we support AMD64 inline assembly.
Add support for automatically linking Homebrew keg-only gettext from
/usr/local/opt/gettext for ENABLE_NLS.
Fix copying Info.plist and vbam.icns to the .app bundle.
Add a key to the Info.plist to support sharp text on retina displays, as
per:
https://wiki.wxwidgets.org/WxMac-specific_topics#Retina_display_support
Set wxWidgets_USE_DEBUG to ON if CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE is "Debug". I'm not
sure this does anything or if I'm doing this correctly though.
Also set wxWidgets_USE_UNICODE to ON. Again, I'm not sure this does
anything or is in the right place.
Fix a bug in the config dir finding code in
wxvbamApp::GetConfigurationPath() updated in 8b8f2f7 to only use the
more top level dirs if there is a vbam.ini in them, not if they are
writable as well, and use the reverse order (starting with user local
dirs) to check for writable dirs and their writable parents. This fixes
a problem with the vbam.ini being written to the Plugins directory of
the .app bundle if it's writable instead of ~/Library/Application
Support/vbam as was intended.
