Cannot compile on MacOS: library 'liquid' not found #115

Closed kermit112 closed 2 months ago

kermit112 commented 4 months ago

Trying to compile the latest releases (1.0 and 1.0.1) but it stops with this error message: The Meson build system Version: 1.5.0 Source dir: /Users/janpeuser/redsea_old Build dir: /Users/janpeuser/redsea_old/build Build type: native build Project name: redsea Project version: 1.0.1 C++ compiler for the host machine: c++ (clang 15.0.0 "Apple clang version 15.0.0 (clang-1500.3.9.4)") C++ linker for the host machine: c++ ld64 1053.12 Host machine cpu family: x86_64 Host machine cpu: x86_64 Configuring config.h using configuration Compiler for C++ supports arguments -Wno-unknown-pragmas: YES meson.build:29: WARNING: Consider using the built-in option for language standard version instead of using "-std=c++14".

Liquid-DSP is installed via brew. Maybe I'm holding it wrong, but you have a hint for fixing this.

Hi, can you try this command and paste what it prints? brew --prefix liquid-dsp

Was this any help? Readme#Troubleshooting

If you also could test the latest commit in the dev branch, that would also be interesting. Lots of things to try, let me know if anything improved :)

Cloned the newest changes from the repository and now the compile worked perfect. Sorry for the noob question, but compiled it completely and running redsea -v still outputs "redsea 0.21-SNAPSHOT by OH2EIQ". How do I link to the newest build?

windytan commented 4 months ago

No worries, it's a good question and something I completely forgot to address in the new Readme. It's because the old version is still installed somewhere. Can you run which redsea to see where it is?

You can remove the old executable and use these steps to build & install 1.x. It will get installed under /usr/local/bin.

  1. Remove the build directory
  2. meson setup build --prefix=/usr/local
  3. cd build && meson install

I made some changes so that, going forward, deleting the old binary and setting the --prefix option won't be necessary on macOS, since it will always install to /usr/local.

Makes it more noob-proof for sure, so thank you for your effort! I didn't have enough time to play with it in the last days, but this hopefully gets better in the future...

Closing since the original issue was resolved, if there's any further trouble with the version let me know
