I admit, I'm not at my best today, and maybe there is something broken on my mac. But I cannot run what is described in 'The Lobster C++ Implementation' over on https://aardappel.github.io/lobster/implementation.html, despite having already sunk hours into it ....

I've been able to build lobster from source (and I even found the resulting binary in bin/lobster)

But no I try to compile a simple hello world

compiling with --cpp works

bin/lobster --cpp hello.lobster

The following cmake command also runs succesfully

cmake -DLOBSTER_TOCPP=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .

but the following make fails when I run with LLVM@17

$ make -j8

make -j8

First, please note that as per the instructions in https://aardappel.github.io/lobster/implementation.html it so far only has been tested to build with cmake + xcodebuild, not with make. There are likely subtle difference in how it generates for make that have not been tested.

Your original build from source, how was that made?

Stuff like -disable-aligned-alloc-awareness=1 is not in our CMake or anywhere else, I presume this is something the Makefile generator inserts.. I have no idea why.

The downside of working with xcodebuild is that there currently is no convenient way to insert the generated code, but just for testing you should be able to replace main.cpp with compiled_lobster.cpp in the project (using xcode).

Thank you very much for your quick answer

Your original build from source, how was that made?

cd lobster.git/dev/xcode-cmake
xcodebuild -toolchain clang -configuration Release -target lobster

that results in a lobster binary in lobster.git/dev/lobster

Now that I have the lobster binary I want my hello.lobster translated to C++

$ cd lobster.git
$ cat hello.lobster
print("hello")

$  rm -r dev/compiled_lobster
$ mkdir -p dev/compiled_lobster/src
$ ./bin/lobster --cpp hello.lobster

$ tree dev/compiled_lobster
dev/compiled_lobster
└── src
    └── compiled_lobster.cpp
$ ??

And now I'm not sure how to procede, because all of the above ( cmake ... TOCPP ... -> make -j8 ) didn't work

Can you tell me how exactly does that work?

And what happens if you do something like (modified from build_osx.h):

mkdir -p xcode-cmake-compiled
cd xcode-cmake-compiled
# FIXME make joystick stuff compile?
cmake .. -G Xcode -DLOBSTER_TOCPP=ON -DSDL_HIDAPI_JOYSTICK=OFF -DSDL_JOYSTICK=OFF -DSDL_HAPTIC=OFF
cd ..
xcodebuild -toolchain clang -configuration Release -target lobster

I am guessing that would overwrite your bin/lobster with the compiled version, but other than that something like this should work?

Can you tell me how exactly does that work?

In the Xcode project, you'd find main.cpp, delete it, and instead add compiled_lobster.cpp ? But maybe not needed if the above works.

Hmm ... something is not working

mkdir -p xcode-cmake-compiled

Where is this in ./dev?

lobster.git/dev/xcode-cmake-compiled

There is something wrong or a misunderstanding with the directory I'm suppose to work in
because in the end there is no xcode project

Is maybe the cd .. unnessesary?

$ mkdir -p lobster.git/dev/xcode-cmake-compiled
$ cd lobster.git/dev/xcode-cmake-compiled
$ cmake .. -G Xcode -DLOBSTER_TOCPP=ON -DSDL_HIDAPI_JOYSTICK=OFF -DSDL_JOYSTICK=OFF -DSDL_HAPTIC=OFF

I had a look in xcode project and yes the compiled_lobster.cpp is there and the main.cpp isnt'

It mimics what is in build_osx.h, so yeah, that is meant to be executed from inside dev. And yes the xcodebuild needs to be in that new dir, sorry.

Looking at the CMakeLists.txt, the target may be called compiled_lobster (you should also be able to see this from Xcode).

xcodebuild -toolchain clang -configuration Release -target compiled_lobster

If that doesn't work I can boot up my mac and have a look..

So, I've tried that it doesn't work, I could not solve it so I post here the entire error message:
