Daniel Rossberg (Nov 11 2023 at 20:43):Hi @Winston David Murake, what are you interested in? Creating CAD models or developing software?
Kan_ai0 (Jul 14 2024 at 03:46):Alright @Sean I'll keep that in mind. There's a small thing i wanna ask, do i need to configure something beforehand setting this project on Mac os?
Sean (Jul 14 2024 at 04:44):@Kan_ai0 yes, on mac you must specify -DBRLCAD_BUNDLED_LIBS=ON during cmake or it'll run into issues with Tcl.
Kan_ai0 (Jul 14 2024 at 17:22):thanks Sean for letting me know. i will take care of it.

Hi @Sean there were lot of issues at first while setting this project up locally in my macbook. i solved most of them but this issue is persistent tried everything but couldn't solve it, what do you think might be the problem ?
starseeker (Jul 15 2024 at 14:29):That's a generated file in the build directory - it looks like the editor is just complaining it can't find it?
Kan_ai0 (Jul 15 2024 at 18:45):thanks starseeker but which build directory are you talking about i have checked the github folders there are none.
starseeker (Jul 15 2024 at 18:55):I mean the directory in which BRL-CAD is compiled. mime_types.h is generated as part of the configure+make process
starseeker (Jul 15 2024 at 18:56):It doesn't exist in the repository - it's generated by src/libbu/mime.cmake
Kan_ai0 (Jul 15 2024 at 18:56):ahh got it. thanks a lot mate.
Sean (Jul 15 2024 at 22:27):Yeah, @Kan_ai0 you have to run cmake in a directory you create -- this is called your build directory. You run the build from there and all the compiled products go in there as well.
Kan_ai0 (Jul 16 2024 at 17:39):this project turned out to be much more complex than i have imagined .now i have to setup the project once again from scratch and check out it's functionality, getting issues with cmake, mac os problems, so many things going wrong. i guess it is going to take some time.

BRL-CAD can definitely feel complex if you're unfamiliar with git, cmake, etc., but there's a great community here that can help you out! It's helpful to myself (and everyone else) if you can post what you're trying (commands / env / tools / etc), as well as logs and error messages when you can, so we can debug with you and make suggestions.
Kan_ai0 (Jul 16 2024 at 18:43):Thanks a lot @Christopher I'm really pumped to have you guys on my side. But for once let me try to understand the problems myself if that fails i will explain the problem concisely with the errors faced in this chat. I might learn few new things along the way. Thanks a lot Christopher.
