Overview

The goal of this project is to provide Vision with a cocoa backend to make it truly native on the mac. For more information please refer to the discussion page. See also OSX_release_infrastructure.

Milestones

M1: April 25th

• get EiffelStudio 5.7 compiled under OS X

M2: May 2nd

• Get a Vision window displayed with a Cocoa window (involves eventloop porting)

M3: May

• To be completed by the team

Current Status

30.4: We have EiffelStudio compiled for ppc and running on ppc and intel macs. The Gtk+ GUI works more or less but some things (like wizards) are missing atm. It required a lot of hacking and we're now trying to get newer builds, and streamline the process for getting a build on the mac. I think the next goal should be to get a self-compiling version of ec so that we can skip building the f_code on linux and then adopt the build-script.
