Carbon is the old "transitional" C interface they used to move over from OS9 to OSX (actually, Carbon may even predate that, I can't remember that far back...) and is now deprecated. We need to move to Quartz, I think. The port that Matt did originally was Carbon and Quickdraw, but the QD parts were deprecated so there was work to move to Quartz, but lots of bits of QD and Carbon were left behind. It's those leftovers that are the problem here... FWIW: fltk-1.1 defaults to the old QD mechanisms when built, fltk-1.3 defaults to (mostly, but not enough!) Quartz. Both still have the "alternate" code in them however, and you can select either option at configure. Don't know what fltk-2 does. Suspect it is still QD actually... Can't remember when it forked off the 1.x line. It may have some relevant fixes though... Don't know. > And then wrt development...

Best just use the svn repo: see the bottom of page http://www.fltk.org/software.php And in particular: The FLTK 1.3 source can be checked out using the following command: svn co http://svn.easysw.com/public/fltk/fltk/branches/branch-1.3/ fltk-1.3 SELEX Sensors and Airborne Systems Limited Registered Office: Sigma House, Christopher Martin Road, Basildon, Essex SS14 3EL A company registered in England & Wales.
