I've run into some issues building on OSX Yosemite with Xcode 6.1 and
cmake. Fortunately, I seem to have solved them...
- Qt 5.2.1 doesn't build properly on Yosemite (can't recall the specific
error offhand), but Qt 5.3.2 builds (and seems to work) fine
- With the Xcode 6.1 command-line tools for Yosemite, for some reason
"-I/System/Library/Frameworks/Kernel.framework/headers" gets put into
the command line. This causes a whole raft of strange compile problems,
apparently since the headers in that location are not complete. I did
not run into this issue under Mavericks. I was able to work around this
problem by adding "-D CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK=LAST" to the cmake command
line. This does not appear to be necessary under Mavericks.
- CFPropertyListCreateFromStream() has been deprecated in Yosemite, in
favor of CFPropertyListCreateWithStream(). The autotools build checks
for this function, and sets HAVE_CFPROPERTYLISTCREATEWITHSTREAM
appropriately - but the cmake build does not. I have submitted a change
to fix this: https://code.wireshark.org/review/#/c/5226/
I'm not sure the location of the added test is correct, so whoever
reviews it - feel free to move it to the right place.
ConfigureChecks.cmake seemed to be the appropriate place, but I don't
know enough about cmake to know if APPLE_CORE_FOUNDATION_LIBRARY would
be visible there.
- Related to Bug 10640... not only does upgrading from Mavericks to
Yosemite break the /usr/X11 link, it also breaks the /usr/X11R6 link
(/usr/X11R6 --> /opt/X11), which prevents <cairo.h> from being located.
Simply "ln -s /opt/X11 /usr/X11R6" to fix this one.
