Better Mac OS X support

[GoogleCodeExporter]

This isnt bug, but enhancement, with quite low priority.

It will be so nice, if there will be - in the future i mean - better Mac OS 
support:
1) better file linking (?) for compilation - i mean, overall better compilation 
support and comfort
2) App icon :)
3) !gfx folder included at the kbang.app (application) folder! Mac OS 
Application isnt one 
executable like in Windows or Linux, its folder (package) of resources and 
executable - but user 
dont see it like folder, but like icon, like application (you know, that it is 
folder only via 
Terminal/bash or something like it) - at the Finder (at windows it is explorer) 
doubleclick mean 
run application (yep, doubleclick, to the whole folder, which normal user see 
as one icon). Now 
user must have one folder (icon/application for normal BFU) and another folder 
gfx for it, this is 
really unusual and not practical (it dont look nice and it cause mess at the 
list of apps etc.) at 
Mac OS apps :)

At the attachment you can see list of regular Mac OS apps and kbang inside of 
it - please notice, 
that ie. Cyberduck doesn't have any other user (BFU) viewable folders etc. it 
consist (for user) 
only from this one icon (if you'll move it to the bin - you'll remove whole app 
- Cyberduck in this 
case) - but kbang consist unusual from 2 icons (gfx folder and whole app).

Hi,
I know about the complications on Mac OS and I will try to fix them. But
unfortunately I'm not a user of Mac OS. I'm trying to get access to a machine 
with
Mac OS X, but even if I get it, I still know almost nothing about Mac OS. It 
would be
very nice to have someone that would take care of Mac OS support.
I've already talked to one guy that has some programming skills and is a Mac OS 
user,
so I can ask him.
Anyway, if there is someone who would like to help us with Mac OS X support, 
please
let me know.

Meanwhile, you can add the directive

  CONFIG -= app_bundle

in kbang_client.pro and kbang_server.pro, so that Qt will create executables 
like
Unix (no more .app).

To compile at command line, use:

$ qmake -spec macx-g++ kbang.pro
$ make

Your builds can't run in (Leopard 10.5.8.). Can you post new builds for Leopard 
(or Snow Leopard) ?

Sorry, version 0.1.3 does not work, you need to checkout the trunk from svn and 
then
change the .pro files as I said.

I was able to compile and run KBang under my OSX using macports, using a trunk 
checkout, the only problem is that the card images are not visible. The gfx 
folder exists.
Any advice ?

For kbang-client for OS X, you can use my build.

Guys, please, do you have version for Mac OSX 10.6.8, which really works?  I 
tried this one but it doesn't work. :(

Try this one.

I've been using it on 10.6.8 and I've upgraded to 10.9 today and it works as 
well.

You are missing Qt library.

Install Qt 4 (http://qt-project.org/downloads) and it should work
