After a mountain of hurdles, and learning curves today, ( its been fun ! ), I've built Bytecoin-Qt for Mac OS X

You can grab it here for now http://ge.tt/43pGKId/v/0?c

It was built on Mac OS Lion, x86_64. I wouldn't be surprised if it has problems on other versions, let me know if so, and apologies in advance if that is the case.

This does not work outside of your development computer, as you need to ship it with the libs and update the location in the app and dylibs inside your bytcoin-qt.app using install_name_tool. The instructions below show you how to do this from the part Linking the Application to Qt as Frameworks when it talks about the otool.

http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com/docs/library/html/qt4/deployment-mac.html

If you look at the output of otool -L Bytecoin-Qt.app/Contents/MacOS/Bitcoin-Qt. Those /opt/local/lib are on your computer only. Using cp -R you transfer the files to the Framework folder created in Bytecoin-Qt.app/Contents/ then use otool to change the location of the libs relative to the @executable_path.

Any chance for pre-compiled binaries?

I'm having a hell of a time.

Everything I have is in the links above, links to the source code, link to the -qt I created on my Mac running Lion, and the bytecoind binary that I compiled from the source. Not sure there is anything else, if someone wants to give me the cost of Mountain Lion ( is it mountain Lion you having the trouble on ? ) in bitcoins, I'll go buy it, install it and try and compile one that works on that version ( no guarantees I can get it working though )

Other than that, what problems are you having, share the info, might be able to help...

Quite a few errors.
Any ideas: http://pastebin.com/Cj50BVbb

Just from all those references to 'boost' I'd say perhaps you're missing that, or have a different version than required, probably the former, or if boost is all present and correct the code isn't seeing it, not sure why that would be though.

Have you tried following the instructions here ?

https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-osx.md

Note, in the macports or homebrew sections it mentions installing these,

boost
db48@+no_java
openssl
miniupnpc

btw,
you can change dylib paths after compilations, f.e.-

install_name_tool -change /usr/local/Cellar/gcc48/4.8.0/gcc/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib ./libgcc_s.1.dylib cgminer

makes cgminer too look for libgcc_s.1dylib in current folder ./

I've created portable cgminer that way.

There is only one issue, though.
If you then run your executable from finder, it will use system installed libraries if they are available.
And some libraries provided with Mac OS X are old.

So, in order to use libraries in your 'portable package'( at "./"path) you need to create .sh which first cd's to current executable folder and then launches it.

I'll upload the binary later, ( can't do it right now ), and will paste link here, if you run that on command line it may output a meaningful error to give a clue

Other than that, in the meantime /var/log/system.log may show something useful

This should show what bytecoin linked against when I compiled it, note db48 is mentioned, if you dont have this, maybe a later version only, like db53, this could be the problem, just a hunch.

Code:

$ otool -L bytecoind
bytecoind:
/opt/local/lib/db48/libdb_cxx-4.8.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)
/opt/local/lib/libboost_system-mt.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)
/opt/local/lib/libboost_filesystem-mt.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)
/opt/local/lib/libboost_program_options-mt.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)
/opt/local/lib/libboost_thread-mt.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)
/opt/local/lib/libssl.1.0.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
/opt/local/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
/opt/local/lib/libz.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.7)
/opt/local/lib/libminiupnpc.8.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)
/usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 52.0.0)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 159.1.0)
$

I've uploaded bytecoind here :

http://ge.tt/28qBETd/v/0?c

Try running this on command line, maybe start with ./bytecoind -? to see the options etc.. e.g, -debug

Hope that helps!, let me know what you find..

Thanks for uploading, but unfortunately it does not work for me, I'm on 10.8.3 (crashes immediately after openeing).

It was compiled on Lion, 10.7. Probably something it's linked against is different in 10.8. Could be 10.8 uses a different 'db' version, seems the bitcoin/bytecoin code requires db48. Try running something like 'locate lib | grep db48', see if its there ?

Running "locate lib | grep db48" gives no output all at, so it might be missing. Is there a debug log somewhere where I can look up the errors?

can you post some building instructions ?

and would be nice if it works with homebrew, coz who uses macports these days, and they are stepping one another toes

https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-osx.md

For qt - https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/readme-qt.rst ( this quite a bit more difficult than the doc suggests if like me, you havent used qt creator before, took a while to figure out, and, I couldn't get it to work with version 5 qt, seems you do have to use 4 )

Doesn't work on mountain lion, 10.8.3, doesn't even load crash right on start.

hmm, Well I only have Lion, which is what was used to do the build, and it is the first time for me doing something like this, ( a rather steep learning curve Wink

)

If you can find any useful logs, will be interested in taking a look. If you'd like to try building on ML, happy to point you in right direction if you need it.
