Trying to compile on OS X 10.9

Hello, I'm trying to compile this on OS X 10.9

I cloned the git repo and then ran autoconf to get a configure script. Running that, I found I still hadn't installed gls and ode and did so with brew install gsl and brew install ode.

Then, I had many errors similar to the following:

1 error generated. Generating dependencies for simulation/worldObject.cc In file included from simulation/worldObject.cc:2: In file included from include/breve/worldObject.h:5: In file included from include/breve/shape.h:25: In file included from /usr/local/include/ode/ode.h:30: /usr/local/include/ode/common.h:59:2: error: You can only #define dSINGLE or dDOUBLE, not both.

error You can only #define dSINGLE or dDOUBLE, not both.

Just as an experiment, since I see it's trying to set -DdDOUBLE on commandline, instead of #error, I #undef SINGLE.

Now, it complains about QT:

c++ -I.. -c -o QTInstrumentFunctions.o QTInstrumentFunctions.cc QTInstrumentFunctions.cc:29:2: error: unknown type name 'NoteAllocator'; did you mean '__CFAllocator'? NoteAllocator allocator; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~ __CFAllocator /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Headers/CFBase.h:411:22: note: '__CFAllocator' declared here typedef const struct __CFAllocator * CFAllocatorRef; ^ QTInstrumentFunctions.cc:29:16: error: field has incomplete type '__CFAllocator' NoteAllocator allocator; ^ /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Headers/CFBase.h:411:22: note: forward declaration of '__CFAllocator' typedef const struct __CFAllocator * CFAllocatorRef; ^ QTInstrumentFunctions.cc:30:2: error: unknown type name 'NoteChannel' NoteChannel channel; ^ QTInstrumentFunctions.cc:31:2: error: unknown type name 'NoteRequest' NoteRequest request; ^ QTInstrumentFunctions.cc:39:2: error: unknown type name 'NoteRequest' NoteRequest request; ^ QTInstrumentFunctions.cc:45:17: warning: 'OpenDefaultComponent' is deprecated: first deprecated in OS X 10.8 [-Wdeprecated-declarations] i->allocator = OpenDefaultComponent( 'nota', 0 ); ^ /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/CarbonCore.framework/Headers/Components.h:1004:1: note: 'OpenDefaultComponent' has been explicitly marked deprecated here OpenDefaultComponent( ^ 1 warning and 5 errors generated. make[2]: *** [QTInstrumentFunctions.o] Error 1 make[1]: [all] Error 2 (ignored)

I guess I should ask - is compiling under 10.9 expected to work? I see there are commits related to making it work, so thought I'd try. The current screensaver binary on the website won't run for me, so was having a go a compiling it myself.

Cheers, Sean

Those errors are from running the (now obsolete) plugins, one of which requires an ancient version of QuickTime. I think that should probably just be removed from the makefile .
