Okay, I'm afraid most of what your saying is gibberish to me. It's a bit hard trying to get V8 to work when literally the first example doesn't work.
Could you give me a step-to-step tutorial on how I'm supposed to build the hello_world example? What I tried, based on the tutorial (https://github.com/v8/v8/wiki/Getting%20Started%20with%20Embedding) was the following: $ fetch v8 # do download v8 $ git checkout -b 4.8 -t branch-heads/4.8 # to get to the correct branch $ make x64.release # to build the lib? And then I copy-pasted the hello_world.cpp file from that page and tried to build it using the command that was listed there. Which gives me a bunch of errors for missing .a files. So my question is this: Can you explain it to me like I'm five, how to I build and run this hello_world.cpp example on OSX using make and gyp or whatever? If the example is outdated then how am I supposed to do it? On Tuesday, March 8, 2016 at 12:35:56 PM UTC+1, Jochen Eisinger wrote: > > If you use make for your development, it should work.
