#40388: codeblocks: create an app bundle also for wxgtk-based installation -------------------------+---------------------- Reporter: mojca@… | Owner: afb@… Type: defect | Status: reopened Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Port: codeblocks | -------------------------+---------------------- Changes (by mojca@…): * status: closed => reopened * resolution: wontfix => Comment: I don't understand the response. I don't know how GTK works under linux, but I'm not talking about {{{.desktop}}} applications. I'm not talking about non-X11 GTK either. One can easily create an app bundle from an X11 application. A typical example is Gimp (excluding the recent quartz-based GTK). Gimp comes as Gimp.app, clicking it launches X11 in the background and starts the application just fine. I know because I experimented with a bunch of other wxWidgets dependencies and I created app bundles for some even if they didn't support wxWidgets 2.9. If you want to see a simple example you can do a tiny modification to the xCHM port to link against wxgtk-2.8 instead of wxWidgets-2.9 and you'll see. I would have done it myself already, but the app making process for Code::Blocks seemed relatively complicated and I had to be done with some 40 ports, so I left it alone for a while as it didn't seem urgent. If you don't want to check it out yourself, you can re-assign this particular ticket to me and I'll take a look once I'm over the pressing deadline. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/40388#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
