@@ -15,25 +15,42 @@ The basic system works quite well. But a lot of applications and plugins,
which are platform specific, need some work to be compileable.
What is ready:
libqpe
libopie1
libopie2/opiedb
pim-applications (addressbook, todolist, datebook, today)
A lot of applications and plugins which are not platform specific.
What will follow soon:
-libopie2
+libopie2 (libopiecore and libopiedb works already !)
+
+ToDO:
+-----
+There are some functions in the sourcecode which are not yet ported to Mac. If the
+MacOS environment should be used for real productive work, the following functions
+must be implemented correctly:
+
+libopie/pim/otimezone.cpp:
+Accessing of "setenv(...)" on Mac caused bus-errors.
+Workaround/Fix: Unknown
+Current-State: setenv() was just commented out. Thus the related functions may behave wrong!
+
+library/filemanager.cpp:
+The sendfile() function is not available in MacOSX. Therefore a workaround must be implemented.
+Workaround/Fix: Unknown. The function is available in the header files, but disabled by a
+"#ifdef SENDFILE" .. and not implemented int the c-library.
+If it will be supported, it should activate itself automatically by the "#ifdef"..
How to compile Opie for MacOS-X:
-------------------------------
Before compiling for MacOS-X, you need the following:
1. X11-Server+X11SDK (Provided by Apple)
2. QT-2.3.2 for X11 (Provided by Trolltech)
3. QT/E-2.3.7 (Provided by Trolltech)
4. Patches for QT-2.3.2 for MacOSX (take the one in this directory !)
5. Patches for QT/E-2.3.7 for MacOSX (take the one, provided in $OPIEDIR/qt)
