They all work, so I committed them to GIT

Thanks. One little wish for the future though: please use "git am" to apply such patches (like written in the initial mail about the language detection patch), since this keeps commit messages, authorship and the logical grouping of the changes. Now the history looks like this:

    Alot of code cleanups relating to OSX by Jonas

Author: jonas <address@hidden>
Date:   Thu Dec 29 02:35:26 2011 +0100

    Removed the wrapper script from the app bundle

    Since the pingus executable is now by itself capable of finding the
data in the bundle as well as to detect the preferred language there
    is no need for the wrapper anymore.

commit 311149eea07cc303e4dc5207b5da69d60416549c
Author: jonas <address@hidden>
Date:   Thu Dec 29 02:02:48 2011 +0100

    Implemented language detection for Mac OS X

    If an application is started via Finder the LC_MESSAGES is not set
    (at least not here in Leopard) so we fetch the first entry of the
    preferred languages from the global preferences.

    Added a link to the MacOS_X_Compiling wiki page

commit 2e6c2843fb85dbd082f960eb4f87079199feda78
Author: jonas <address@hidden>

    Fixed the language selection of Pingus.app

Due to missing escape chars the language got already selected at compile time. Now the current language is selected at run time of the lancher script.

From my experience a clean history with informative comments can help a lot when trying to understand foreign code, review changes and fix bugs.

I'll look at that right now, I didn't even think about that. Just found a fix, will test and commit
<osx.patch>

I've got some minor enhancements to the patch (cleaned patch attached):
*) stick to the current coding-style
*) Check the bundle path only when needed
*) make sure the CFURLRef is always freed when used
*) give the helper method a comprehensive name and make it a static bool

Thanks for your work,

PS-- I'm not sure if your build system will work anymore
http://code.google.com/p/pingus/wiki/MacOS_X_Compiling

It is still working, I just checked.

There is something else that now stopped working though: launching pingus from the source dir (without specifying the -- datadir) While this is not critical, it's annoying. Responsible for that are the changes 54d9e1e9 and 6ee7570b. What do you think about a check, whether the application was executed from a bundle or not? Or checking if "data" exists in either location before setting it? Don't get me wrong, the ability to use the bundle's resource dir out of the box is nice (removes the need for a wrapper script) but loosing the option to simply start pingus during development is not so nice.

also referenced the wiki page in my INSTALL.macosx. I'm sure it'll be helpfull for those who want to do everything by hand. See the attached patches. It also fixes the compile-time/run- time language detection issue Andy ran into.

Hi,

Thanks for the Mac port. But, sorry to report it has a couple of problems: 1. It crashes as soon as I click on the play checkbox of any level that I select.

Please try to start pingus in a terminal, maybe it reports some errors there. To do so, cd to the folder containing Pingus.app (e.g. "cd / Applications/Games/"), then execute "Pingus.app/Contents/MacOS/ pingus"
Here I get the following output:
--------8<--------8<--------
$ Pingus.app/Contents/MacOS/pingus

--------8<--------8<--------

2. It defaults to German, which is ok, but the --language option does not work to change it.

Sorry, that's my fault. I just saw that the language was selected at compile time instead of run time. To fix it, open "Pingus.app/Contents/MacOS/pingus" using a text editor and change the second line to "lang=<what you need>".
Currently the line reads "lang=de" but it should be:
------8<--------8<------
lang=`defaults read .GlobalPreferences AppleLanguages | tr -d [:space:] | cut -c2-3`
------8<--------8<------
Apparently I missed to escape the back ticks, so this was executed while I build pingus already. Another problem with this language detection is, that it only works with two-letter codes, so something like "pt_BR" won't be detect correctly.

Which version of OSX should it work with? I'm running 64bit 10.7.2

I build it on 32 bit intel, using 10.5 "Leopard". Here I can play levels but some graphics are missing.

bye,
Jonas
