Comment on C++ Logging and building Boost for iPhone/iPad 3.2 and MacOSX by eastcowboy2002

I did compile boost 1.44 yesterday.
in the file “tools/build/v2/tools/darwin.jam”, search for “feature macosx-version”, and modify it as follow: (Copied from boost 1.41)

feature macosx-version
: $(.macosx-versions)
: propagated link-incompatible symmetric optional
;

Other steps are all the same as this article describes.

I’m totally new with the MAC OS X, too. If you have any questions, contact me:

Comment on OpenGL/GLUT, Classes (OOP), and Problems by Adi

@Paul Solt
I was able to download your example and get it running using code::block in Ubuntu. All I had to do was to download freeglut_std.h from here: http://www.koders.com/c/fid9C884D79DFF686DE5685DF424FC66761EADD7313.aspx?s=freeglut_std.h#L5 and to replace in 3 places “NULL” with “0″ in PerformanceTimer.cpp file.
Many thanks again! I will check from time to time to see what other goodies you will share

You’re welcome. I’ve also been frustrated a lot by the shear complexity of getting started in OpenGL. Hopefully this is a good starting point and I’ll follow up with more documentation.

I didn’t post the code before, since it was all mangled in my class project and I had to spend a good deal of time cleaning it up for release. There’s still things that could be changed, and I plan on updating them in the near future.

The code on github is a lot more friendly than the steps that I discussed regarding the static instance. The instance is set from within the framework, instead of requiring the user to set it in their code.

@Paul Solt
Great, many thanks! For programmers it is trivially simple to understand your explanations from this post. I needed to see a full working example; I have to follow trough your code and bring bits and pieces into Code::Blocks, but it is so much easier now! For beginners like me I have a tiny little example following your tutorial with just a very basic opengl instance here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1557360
I am not sure why this subject it is not a lot more discussed. Other than your example it is not too much more out there one can learn from. Keep up the good work!

@adrian I just refactored out the code from my animation project. I’m hosting it on github at: http://github.com/PaulSolt/GLUT-Object-Oriented-Framework

I’ve included an Xcode 3.1 and a Visual Studio 2010 project along with the source files. I’ll update the site with more information on using it.

The sample will create a simple teapot animation at 60fps.
