See http://www.perforce.com/jam/jam.html. When used with FT-Jam (a light variant, found at http://www.freetype.org/jam/), these files can also be used to perform incremental builds correctly, because FT-Jam knows about #include MACRO_NAME_H schemes and computes header dependencies automatically. I know that there is some very _old_ and _modified_ version of Jam installed with OS X, that is normally being used by ProjectBuilder or something like that, but I have no idea wether this would work with our Jamfiles. I may be possible that the Jamfiles need some small fixes to compile correctly on MacOS, but nobody had the time to test it until now. In all cases, it should be very easy to do. By the way, I'd be interested to know the exact version of Jam that comes with 10.4. Did they upgrade it ? To know that, simply type "jam -v" or "jam -?" on the command line.

Copyright 1993, 1997 Christopher Seiwald. with Apple ProjectBuilder Extensions Btw. and totally off topic; I never used Jam myself. Do you know of the top of your head if Jam can handle the situation where a compiler produces two output files from one source file on which further compilation depends? This happens with symbol files in Wirth style languages and make can't handle this.

You'll need to provide some specific rules/functions within your Jamfile, but this requires understanding the Jam control language. Could you let me know precisely what you're speaking of ? I'd be tempted of providing a solution if it's not too complex.

I wonder if they use the default version, or produced a custom one with different built-in rules though.

Re: [ft-devel] Freetype on Mac uses deprecated functions
Dear Sirs, Status for Tiger's API deprecation issue: My working source is available from GNU arch archive from URL: http://www.gyve.org/~mpsuzuki/arch-2005.09.03 archive name: [EMAIL PROTECTED] project: freetype2--mps-macos--0.1 George Williams sent me his patch skelton to replace FSSpec by FSRef, it's slightly fixed and applied in the working tree. Now I'm working for replacement of FontManager by AppleTypeService, used in FT_GetFile_From_Mac_Name(). The function resolves "abstract" fontname recognized by system to "concrete" file, but the resolved result is returned by obsolete FSSpec structure. ATS provides the replacements for the most functions of FontManager, by 1:1 corresponding functions. But FontManager does not provide function to return font file by FSRef structure, and ATS does not either. In fact, there's no ATS function to find font file for a given font name, except of ATSFontGetFileSpecification(). I'm afraid it will be deprecated in future. However, I've already written sample programs to resolve font name -> font file by ATS functions and FSRef data. They are available from GNU arch in above, project: carbon-sample--mps--0.0 Yet I've not checked other APIs, I suppose ATS is designed to hide "concrete" font data, and I should search other API to find "concrete" font data. Any suggestions? Regards, mpsuzuki ___ Freetype-devel mailing list Freetype-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel
