Binary files on MAC OSX [message #122346] Sun, 03 October 2004 13:45 Go to next message

Hello,

I'm running eclipse 3.0.1 and 2.0.2 of CDT on a MAC 10.3.5 and was able to
import an existing project with a library and a test program. I
successfully compiled the library and test program using the existing
makefiles. So far so good!

But I then try to debug/run the resulting binary and the CDT thinks the
executable is text. I read a recent post about someone that had a similar
problem on windows and the they needed to change the binary parser. The
default parser is "elf" that didn't work, so I tried "GNU elf" and that
didn't work either.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Wink

Hello,

I'm experiencing this problem too. Since wink hasn't received any feedback
publicly, can someone
point me to the relevant portion of the souce base (ie, the source where
eclipse is determining if a file
is an executable)? I'm new to this source base. Some nagivation assistant
would be very helpful.

Thanks,

John

Hello,

Just following up on my previous post. Looking at the source things have
become clearer to me. While
ELF is a common object format on UNIX (eg, Linux, Solaris), Mac OS X chose
Mach-O.

I haven't seen any documentation on extended CDT to use a new object file.
Does anyone have a
pointer? However, the interfaces look pretty clean. Hmm...I wonder
what's involved with enchancing
it. BTW, does anyone know of others working on this extension? I have
heard Palm is planning for a
release on the Mac in the spring.

Sincerely,

John
