Re: Buildtool : other attempt to build a ported app : the Bean.app example

[Gregory Casamento]

RFM has fixed the issue and pushed, thanks Richard.  You need to update libs-base and update.  I was able to build and, as you can see, it works.  Bean is, as I said, slow because of a modification which was made in the typesetter.  Almost no modification was done to the code.  This version of bean should build on macos, but you might need to use an older version of Xcode.

If you want to find other examples of projects used to test buildtool, under my id, gcasa, there are a bunch of tests which I have written to test various things, some of which I am still working on (such as Storyboards).

Hi Gregory,

Thank you for your investigation. So waiting now for the bug fix in NSFileManager. ;-)

Cheers,
Patrick
