ofxMacUtils

This class includes functions to make it easier to work with OSX applications. It was designed to configure OSX for long term installations. Tested with OF v.0.08 and OSX 10.8 - 10.10.

This addon is evolving and new functionality is currently being added.

CAUTION

Some of this functionality can be difficult to undo, for example accidentally turning off screen sharing on a remote computer you don't have access to.

Instafigurator

If you want to use some of the functionality, you need to activate some objective-c functionality. Add the following line to the project.xcconfig.

Any files that will be using ofxMacUtils with OFX_MAC_UTILS_USE_OBJ_C active need to be set to compile as Objective-C++ Source. You can do that by selecting the file and changing the type drop down to Objective-C++ Source. Don't forget to change main.cpp also! If you are still having trouble, try Project > Clean and then build again. See image below.

You can also set all the files in your project to compile as Objective-C++ Source in the Build Settings of the project. Using this method, you don't have to change each file individually, but all of your files need to be compatible with Objective-C++ (.h, .cpp, .mm, .m, etc.). See Image below.
