#32302: OGRE (Object-Oriented Graphics Rendering Engine) Static Port -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: marin.saric@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: submission | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Keywords: maintainer | Port: ogre, ogre-static -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Comment(by ryandesign@…): Replying to [comment:4 marin.saric@…]:
There's already a platform on which a static build is default (iPhone), so this wouldn't even be too strange..
Remember however that MacPorts runs on OS X, not iOS. On OS X, dynamic libraries, not static libraries, are usually preferred. But there might be rare exceptions, and ogre might be one of them. I certainly don't want to stand in the way of improving ogre's cross-platform consistency or making it easier for developers to use, and if making it static accomplishes that, then go for it. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32302#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
