FR: Provide build and deploy instructions
This looks like a really cool project, and I'm really enjoying using it. Heckofajob!
Would it be possible to add build and deploy instructions to the Readme.md? It might even be great if there were a way to build strictly from the CLI, so there's no need to try to describe how to use the XCode GUI.
Feel free to fork a copy and supply an augmented README.md in a pull request. The organization that needed this program no longer uses it, so I don't have time to actively support further development of the code.
Understood! Unfortunately, I personally don't use XCode well enough to describe how to make it compile, aside from "poke at a bunch of crap until something looks sane".
Maybe someone else can fill in the blanks?
I don't have Xcode installed currently but looking at my shell history I believe I used this command to build it in the terminal.
xcodebuild -scheme uvc-util build
I don't recall having to do anything in the Xcode GUI to build it.
@BeansIsFat, thanks, that (sorta) worked!
The reason I say "sorta", is because the files were generated in a strange place, which I only found by looking through the console spew and finding ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/uvc-util-dgdxibmkflixffddgnwzmrezdnau.
So would just need to figure out how to make the build target directory something local, and maybe as well make a Release version instead of a Debug version.
Try from the cloned source directory:
xcodebuild -derivedDataPath ./build -scheme uvc-util -target uvc-util -configuration Release
and look for the executable under ./build/Build/Products/Release/uvc-util.
@jtfrey nice. I tried your code from the unzipped repo archive, and worked perfectly there, too.
Thanks again for this util, it's perfect for our educational work.
