did you do ./autogen.sh as well? Also I'd advise to build in 32bit on OS X. The 64bit dynamic core will crash when you run Dosbox and it switches to it (but I guess you know that because you disabled it)

To compile in 32bit I built by

cd ~/Code/svn/dosbox
export CFLAGS='-O2 -arch i386 -fomit-frame-pointer -fstrict-aliasing -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fno-tree-pre -falign-loops -ffast-math' CPPFLAGS='-I/opt/local/include' CXXFLAGS='-O2 -mdynamic-no-pic -arch i386 -fomit-frame-pointer -fstrict-aliasing -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fno-tree-pre -falign-loops -ffast-math' MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET='10.6' CXX='/usr/bin/g++-4.2' F90FLAGS='-O2 -m32' LDFLAGS='-L/opt/local/lib -arch i386 -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fstrict-aliasing -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fno-tree-pre -falign-loops -ffast-math' OBJC='/usr/bin/gcc-4.2' FCFLAGS='-O2 -m32' OBJCFLAGS='-O2 -arch i386' FFLAGS='-O2 -m32' CC='/usr/bin/gcc-4.2'
./autogen.sh
./configure --disable-sdltest --disable-alsatest --enable-core-inline
make clean
make

I haven't built very latest SVN but at least around the release time of 0.74 SVN didn't give me any headache (but I also didn't build with debug).
Also I'm using MacPorts to have all needed libs built in universal flavor 😀

Thanks for you quick answer.

Well I don't really know... I've just seen some of your posts elsewhere.. 😉

I tried your script (the 5 commandes) and got :

Undefined symbols:
  "_SDL_UnlockAudio", referenced from:
      MixerChannel::FillUp()      in libhardware.a(mixer.o)

make[3]: *** [dosbox] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

make: *** [all] Error 2

Then I added --enable-debug=heavy to the configure line, and got:

Reading you, I had used MacPorts and did:

 sudo port -d selfupdate
sudo port install libsdl
sudo port install p5-curses
sudo port install ncurses
sudo  port upgrade outdated

the LDflags don't include a reference to sdl. so that explains the problems.
For the curses problem. Not sure what kind of curses mac os x has installed. Isn't there a different version somehow ?
I use ncurses.

As I wrote above it needs to be universal, meaning you have to "sudo port install SOMETHING +universal" or else building Dosbox in 32bit will fail on modern Apple machines with OS X 10.6...

I got your debug build problem figured out now, since I first got the same error as you got.
You need to pass on the include for ncurses or ./configure will use the "bad" curses that comes with xcode by apple.
When you add -I/opt/local/include/ncurses to the CPPFLAGS it will built fine.
The whole export *I* use and which is working for me is

export CFLAGS='-O2 -arch i386 -fomit-frame-pointer -fstrict-aliasing -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fno-tree-pre -falign-loops -ffast-math' CPPFLAGS='-I/opt/local/include -I/opt/local/include/ncurses' CXXFLAGS='-O2 -mdynamic-no-pic -arch i386 -fomit-frame-pointer -fstrict-aliasing -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fno-tree-pre -falign-loops -ffast-math' MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET='10.6' CXX='/usr/bin/g++-4.2' F90FLAGS='-O2 -m32' LDFLAGS='-L/opt/local/lib -arch i386 -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fstrict-aliasing -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fno-tree-pre -falign-loops -ffast-math' OBJC='/usr/bin/gcc-4.2' FCFLAGS='-O2 -m32' OBJCFLAGS='-O2 -arch i386' FFLAGS='-O2 -m32' CC='/usr/bin/gcc-4.2'

If you installed all the needed libs via macports and the +universal option and you still get the SDL errors a
export LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib
might help.

I do get these warnings though

you could do a const char* out2= &out1[0];
and replace the out1 with out2 in those LOG() calls.

Maybe that makes the compiler happy

I'm not sure I understood you right but in line 1848 I added the const char* out2= &out1[0]; and then replaced the out1 with out2 in the log calls. The compiler will still complain the same way.

Thanks a lot Dominus, my make does it now!

Cheers,

Vince.
