[jira] [Commented] (THRIFT-1476) Build universal library binaries on Mac OSX

["Peace C (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1476?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13177749#comment-13177749 ] 

Peace C commented on THRIFT-1476:
---------------------------------

As a side note, building for ppc on OSX 10.7.1 (Lion) and XCode 4.1 fails.  i386 and x86_64 build successfully.

Output from configure:
----------------------
checking whether the C compiler works... no
configure: error: in `/Users/affinegy/dev/thrift/thrift-0.8':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

>             Project: Thrift
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: C++ - Library
>    Affects Versions: 0.7, 0.8, 0.9
>         Environment: Mac OS X
>            Reporter: Peace C
>            Assignee: Jake Farrell
>            Priority: Minor

>             Fix For: 0.9

>
> I would like to request a build option to create universal binaries on Mac OSX.  The resulting library would support i386, x86_64 and ppc platforms.
> For reference, Jake F. posted a work-around to target different platforms -
> > The thrift build is not setup to create a universal binary currently. if
> > you would like to create a ticket for this we can take a look at making
> > this a global configure option. To set the arch you can pass
> > CPPFLAGS='-arch i386' to configure.
> [edit: additionally pass LDFLAGS and CXXFLAGS with the same architecture]
> > You should be able to use this for each arch you want to create and then 
> > use lipo to combine them into a universal binary.
