macOS building error

[morning-paradigm]

I've made sure to follow the Special notice for macOS and tried to build the program, but got a bunch of errors. make output log.txt

../list:3:1: error: unknown type name 'ls'
ls
^

Looks like there is a file named list somewhere in the source directory, and contains ls as its content. The compiler included that file instead of <list> in C++ STL and causing errors. You may want to check git status or just search for that file.

There's list.c in Aegisub⁩ ▸ ⁨vendor⁩ ▸ ⁨csri⁩ ▸ ⁨lib⁩. It's identical to the one on GitHub. What about it?

git status

Your branch is up to date with 'origin/dev'.

Untracked files:

        po/quot.sed
        po/remove-potcdate.sin

nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)

Is there a list located in /Users/alpin/Downloads/?

[morning-paradigm]

Yes, it contains ls as you said.

[wangqr]

So if you move / rename that file, it should workaround this issue.

[morning-paradigm]

Yeah, I've managed to build it after removing the file. The app size is slightly different from the r9139 build you provided, but it works.

I've got two more questions:

1. Setting environment variables during build works temporary and force linking them is permanent, right?
2. make utilised only one core. Is there any way to make it use more than one to quicken the build process?

1. Setting environment variables during build works temporary. Unless you put those lines in your ~/.zshrc, they are gone once you close the terminal, and you need to set it again for a new terminal window. Force link tells homebrew to install them and override macOS-provided ones. Force linking is not recommended. It should be able to undone according to https://stackoverflow.com/a/26615940/3342190 .
2. make can be parallelized with -j. For example make -j8 will use 8 cores.

The app size is slightly different from the r9139 build you provided, but it works.

Reproducible build is a long term target, but currently there are still many things to do. For example wxLogError uses __FILE__, and will include the source directory information in the final binary.
