demo fails to build on OS X

[ghost]

I get the following failure when trying to run the makefile in the demos folder:

$ make MacOSX
cd common ; make
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
cd MacOSX ; make ; make run
cc -I. -I/usr/X11/include   -c -o noisedemo.o ../common/noisedemo.c
cc -framework Cocoa -framework OpenGL -lglfw  noisedemo.o   -o noisedemo
./bundle.sh noisedemo.app noisedemo ; chmod a-x noisedemo
/bin/sh: ./bundle.sh: Permission denied
ln -s ../common/noisedemo.vert ../common/noisedemo.frag . ; touch links_done
open -W ./noisedemo.app
The file /Volumes/ssd/code/graphics/webgl-noise/demo/MacOSX/noisedemo.app does not exist.
make[1]: *** [run] Error 1
make: *** [MacOSX] Error 2

doing:

$ chmod u+x demo/MacOSX/bundle.sh

fixes the 'Permission denied' error above and allows the Makefile to run flawlessly

Thanks for the bug report. I'll try to fix it right away. (My git skills are still a bit limited, unfortunately, but I can't imagine this would be difficult to solve.)

No worries, just thought I'd let you know as maybe you aren't working on OS X and it might be a hitch for some users.

Note that once you do the chmod, the diff won't say much, only that you changed permissions. This is how it looks on my computer:

$ git diff demo/MacOSX/bundle.sh
diff --git a/demo/MacOSX/bundle.sh b/demo/MacOSX/bundle.sh
old mode 100644
new mode 100755

You should still add / commit that file and the change would be made. Alternatively, I can issue a pull request, but I thought it overkill for something this minor.

Anyhow, thanks for the nice demo, I'm enjoying learning from your glsl!

Cheers, Rich

I try to stay on top of all major platforms, but it's been a while now since I booted MacOS - my MacBook is getting old and does not have a good enough GPU to be enjoyable for GLSL development.

By now, that demo is abandoned code. I have not touched it in years, and it probably won't compile on any platform any longer without tweaks. I am closing the issue, but it will remain unresolved unless someone commits a complete fix. I no longer have access to a MacOS system myself.
