Using TclTkAqua +------------------ + +- Mac OS X 10.1 (or higher) is required to run TclTkAqua. + +- Tcl built on Mac OS X 10.2 or higher will not run on 10.1 due to missing +symbols in libSystem, however Tcl built on 10.1 will run on 10.2 (but without +prebinding and other optimizations). + +- Wish checks the Resources/Scripts directory in its application bundle for a +file called AppMain.tcl, if found it is used as the startup script and the +Scripts folder is added to the auto_path. This can be used to emulate the old +OS9 TclTk droplets. + +- If standard input is a special file of zero length (e.g. /dev/null), Wish +brings up the tk console window at startup. This is the case when double +clicking Wish in the finder (or using 'open Wish\ Shell.app'). + +- Wish accepts drag & drop of text files (i.e. OS type TEXT and other files that +the system recognizes as being of NSStringPboardType). To claim other OS types +or file extensions in your Wish clone, you need to edit + Wish Shell.app/Contents/Info.plist +for more info on how this works, c.f. the System Overview document: + file:///Developer/Documentation/Essentials/SystemOverview/index.html + +- Tcl extensions will be found in any of: + $HOME/Library/Tcl /Library/Tcl + Network/Library/Tcl /System/Library/Tcl +(searched in that order). + +- Tcl.framework contains the Tcl and Tk documentation in html format in the +standard location for frameworks: + Tcl.framework/Resources/English.lproj/Documentation/Reference/Tcl +(OTOH no manpages are installed by default). +Tk.framework contains no documentation. + +- the frameworks Tcl.framework and Tk.framework can be placed in any of the +system's standard framework directories: + $HOME/Library/Frameworks /Library/Frameworks + /Network/Library/Frameworks /System/Library/Frameworks +and 'Wish Shell' as well as /usr/bin/tclsh will work. + +- /usr/bin/wish is a script that calls 'Wish Shell' in its default location + /Applications/Utilities/Wish Shell.app +it will break if 'Wish Shell' is moved. + +- if 'Wish Shell' is started from the Finder or via 'open', $argv contains a +"-psn_XXXX" argument. This is the Wish's carbon process serial number, you may +need to filter it out for cross platform compatibility of your scripts. +Also note that the env array is different when Wish is started from +the Finder, in particular PATH may not be what you expect. +(Wish inherits the Finder's environment variables, which are essentially +those set in $HOME/.MacOSX/environment.plist). + +- Quickdraw text antialiasing is enabled by default when available (from 10.1.5 +onwards). Changing the global boolean variable '::tk::mac::antialiasedtext' +allows to dis/enable antialiasing on the fly from tcl (even for existing text). + +- the format of binary extensions expected by [load] is that of ordinary shared +libraries (.dylib) and not MachO bundles, at present loading of MachO bundles is +not supported. + + +3. Building TclTkAqua +--------------------- + +- Apple's Developer Tools CD needs to be installed (the version matching your OS +release). This CD should have come with Mac OS X retail or should be present as +a disk image on new macs that had OSX preinstalled. It can also be downloaded +from http://connect.apple.com (free ADC membership required). + +- Mac OS X 10.1.5 with the April 2002 Developer Tools update (or higher) is +required to build TclTkAqua. + +- Tcl and TkAqua are built as Mac OS X frameworks using Apple's ProjectBuilder +IDE, but you do not have to deal with the IDE if you don't want to: there are +Makefiles available in tcl/macosx and tk/macosx that take care of calling the +ProjectBuilder command line tool with all the details taken care of. + +- If you're only interested in _building_ TclTkAqua and don't plan on doing +development with the ProjectBuilder projects, using the Makefiles is easiest. +The following steps will build Tcl and Tk from the Terminal (assuming you are +located in the directory above the tcl and tk source trees): + make -C tcl/macosx + make -C tk/macosx +and the following will then install Tcl and Tk onto the root volume (admin +privileges required): + sudo make -C tcl/macosx install + sudo make -C tk/macosx install +you can also pass an INSTALL_ROOT argument to 'make install', e.g. + make -C tcl/macosx install INSTALL_ROOT=$HOME + make -C tk/macosx install INSTALL_ROOT=$HOME +will install into you home directory (useful if you're not an admin on your +machine) + +- The default Makefile targets will build _both_ debug and optimized versions of +the Tcl and Tk frameworks with the standard convention of naming the debug +library Tcl.framework/Tcl_debug resp. Tk.framework/Tk_debug. +This allows to dynamically link to the debug library at runtime by setting + setenv DYLD_IMAGE_SUFFIX _debug +(c.f. man dyld for more details) + +If you only want to build/install the debug resp. optimized build, use the +'develop' resp. 'deploy' target variants of the Makefiles, e.g. + make -C tcl/macosx deploy + make -C tk/macosx deploy + sudo make -C tcl/macosx install-deploy + sudo make -C tk/macosx install-deploy +will build and install only the optimized versions. + +- The Makefiles can also build a version of 'Wish Shell' that has the Tcl and Tk +frameworks embedded in its application package, this allows for standalone +deployment of the application with no installation required, e.g. from read-only +media. To build & install in this manner, use the 'embedded' target variants of +the Makefiles, i.e. + make -C tcl/macosx embedded + make -C tk/macosx embedded + make -C tcl/macosx install-embedded INSTALL_ROOT=`pwd`/embedded + make -C tk/macosx install-embedded INSTALL_ROOT=`pwd`/embedded +will build a standalone 'Wish Shell.app' in ./embedded/Applications/Utilities +(this only requires a relink if you've already built standard TclTkAqua). + +Note that the embedded frameworks include only optimized builds and no +documentation. +The standalone Wish has the directory Wish\ Shell.app/Contents/lib in its +auto_path, this can be used to embed tcl extensions into the app package and +have them automatically available via [package require]. + +- To build from the IDE using the projects directly without going through the +Makefiles you need so setup a common build folder for the projects. A simple way +to achieve this is to make symbolic links + ln -fs ../../build tcl/macosx/build + ln -fs ../../build tk/macosx/build +(this location of the build folder is compatible with the Makefiles). + +Another way is to set the build folder location directly in +tcl/macosx/Tcl.pbproj and tk/macosx/Wish/pbproj using ProjectBuilder's +"Project->Show Info" on the topmost icon in the filelist. Switch to "Place build +products in a separate location" with a setting of "$SRCROOT/../../build" +(this gets stored in Tcl.pbproj/$USER.pbxuser & Wish.pbproj/$USER.pbxuser). + diff --git a/macosx/Wish.pbproj/project.pbxproj b/macosx/Wish.pbproj/project.pbxproj index 45ab708..926fa1c 100644 --- a/macosx/Wish.pbproj/project.pbxproj +++ b/macosx/Wish.pbproj/project.pbxproj @@ -3090,7 +3090,7 @@ MacOS X Port by Jim Ingham <jingham@apple.com> & Ian Reid, Copyright  ); runOnlyForDeploymentPostprocessing = 1; shellPath = /bin/sh; - shellScript = "# redo prebinding\ncd \"${INSTALL_ROOT}\"\nif [ ! -d usr/lib ]; then mkdir -p usr; ln -fs /usr/lib usr/; RM_USRLIB=1; fi\nif [ ! -d System ]; then ln -fs /System .; RM_SYSTEM=1; fi\nredo_prebinding -r . \"./${INSTALL_PATH}/${PRODUCT_NAME}.${WRAPPER_EXTENSION}/Versions/${FRAMEWORK_VERSION}/${PRODUCT_NAME}\"\nif [ -n \"${RM_USRLIB:-}\" ]; then rm -f usr/lib; rmdir -p usr 2>&-; fi\nif [ -n \"${RM_SYSTEM:-}\" ]; then rm -f System; fi"; + shellScript = "# redo prebinding\ncd \"${INSTALL_ROOT}\"\nif [ ! -d usr/lib ]; then mkdir -p usr; ln -fs /usr/lib usr/; RM_USRLIB=1; fi\nif [ ! -d System ]; then ln -fs /System .; RM_SYSTEM=1; fi\nredo_prebinding -r . \"./${INSTALL_PATH}/${PRODUCT_NAME}.${WRAPPER_EXTENSION}/Versions/${FRAMEWORK_VERSION}/${PRODUCT_NAME}\"\nif [ -n \"${RM_USRLIB:-}\" ]; then rm -f usr/lib; rmdir -p usr 2>&-; fi\nif [ -n \"${RM_SYSTEM:-}\" ]; then rm -f System; fi\n\n# fix permissions on uninstalled products\nchmod a+w \"${TEMP_ROOT}/UninstalledProducts\"\nrm -f \"${TEMP_ROOT}\"/UninstalledProducts/libtkstub*.a"; }; F5877FBD031FAC6A016F146B = { buildActionMask = 8; |
