Looking at Source/GNUmakefile in base (at the very end) the ObjectiveC2 subproject, which is where runtime.c lives, is built only when the OBJC2RUNTIME makefile variable is set to 0 (meaning that you only have an old Objective-C runtime system, or rather the configure script was not able to identify your runtime system as being compatible with the newer runtime system): ifeq ($(OBJC2RUNTIME),0) SUBPROJECTS = ObjectiveC2 endif Going back to configure.ac then, OBJC2RUNTIME is set according to the presence of objc_setProperty. So the problem is this test: checking for objc_setProperty... no Wolfgang _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
