Thanks, this gets me started.
Do you happen to know if there is anything like "pragma(lib)" for
the -framework argument? (I don't use dub, so I took your config
there to make my own command line, but it would be nice if I
didn't have to specify the framework. I use pragma(lib) on
Windows and Linux so infer it automatically.)
As you'll see there you need to use some parts of the
Objective-C runtime to create class instances and subclasses.
Also some gymnastics are required for class/static methods.
Yes, indeed. The old mac code I had here used all the extern(C)
calls (it was contributed to me by a forum user, I didn't write
it myself, but did look at it), so some of that is actually
familiar.
So my plan here is to get more of my libs working on Mac: update
the old simpledisplay.d port so it runs on the native api again
(currently it just uses XQuartz), then make my simpleaudio.d use
OpenAL which I hear has been included with the mac os for some
time, then maybe even move on to minigui.d and have it use some
native controls too, if reasonable.
But the first step is just creating a basic window and your code
worked, so thanks, I am on the path now...
