Mac Users/programmers and static/dynamic
« on: December 09, 2010, 07:48:17 pm »
So, I'm trying to compile IOUSBFamily-343.4.3.  It's difficult. I've almost got it, but it gives me this message that says that it can't be both -dynamic and -static. I don't have a clue what that means, but I know it needs to be dynamic.

So, I'm wondering how many xcode/mac users there are, and if anyone can help me with this?

No, I can't post code. It's the driver for USB on macs. It's available at opensource.apple.com.

Also, if you are an apple-hater, don't hate on me. ;-)

EDIT: For the record, the reason I'm doing this is because I'm adding data-logging to the usb device. If you know of a mac usb logger that is free, please tell me.

I've had no experience with macs, but did you try removing the -static flag?

See, I'm trying to figure that out, but for the life of me, I can't find the option that removes it! I figured out how to add the -dynamic tag, but not remove the -static one. I need the -dynamic tag.
