http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4080 Summary: Patch for building dynamic libraries on Mac OS X Product: D Version: future Platform: x86 OS/Version: Mac OS X Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: druntime AssignedTo: sean invisibleduck.org ReportedBy: doob me.com Created an attachment (id=606) Adds the "-dylib" flag These three patches adds support for building dynamic libraries on Mac OS X. The patch for DMD adds the "-dylib" flag to the compiler. Building with this flag enabled will produce a dynamic library. The patch for druntime makes the necessary changes to build dynamic libraries. The D main function is now weakly linked, all of the module constructors of all the loaded images (executables, dynamic libraries) are run. The C main function is slightly modified to use the rt_init and rt_term functions. Two C functions are also added the will initialize and terminate the runtime if no D main function is available, i.e. a D plugin linked with a C application. The patch for phobos is just some modifications to the make file. To build druntime and phobos as dynamic libraries add "dynamic", i.e. "make -f osx.mak dynamic". A note about dynamic libraries on Mac OS X: Every dynamic library has an install name on Mac OS X which is the path to where an executable should look for the library when loading it. The build script sets this to " rpath/<libname>.dylib", where <libname> is "libdruntime" or "libphobos2". rpath is a relative path which the user can set when compiling an executable like this: "dmd -L-rpath -L/path/to/library/". When the executable then is loaded it will search for the library in "/path/to/library/<libname>.dylib". -rpath can be set multiple times. The user can also change the install name with the tool "install_name_tool" without needing to recompile. A change to the dmd.conf file is also needed. With this change the user doesn't have to set the rpath every time when compiling. "libdruntime" must also be linked.
