I suffered over this one for a few hours yesterday. I've removed the proxy settings from my ethernet settings for now. I'll report back if I note any bonjour issues as a result of removing the settings.

using google-glog with XPCOM

I added google-glog into an XPCOM library I have been working with and it seems to work okay for debugging. Instead of writing a file into the /tmp folder, I ended up with output into the system log on OS X. This is acceptable for debugging but probably with some configuration it could write into its own file.

compiling google-glog in XCode

google-glog - Google Code

I decided to take google-glog for a test spin by compiling a simple "Hello, World" program using XCode. Being a little new to XCode it was a good exercise in figuring out how to configure my project to find the headers and the dylib to l ink with. Here are my notes.

1. Building and installing google-glog of course results in the libraries and headers ending up in /usr/local. For me XCode did not pick up anything in /usr/local by default so I added these paths under Project Settings: Library Search Paths and User Headers Search Paths.

2. After that I added libglog.dylib to Targets | Link Binary with Libraries.

3. By default google-glog places the log files into /tmp. The docs explain how to configure log file location, etc.

My next step is to see if I can link and use google-glog with an XPCOM project I am working on to aid in debugging.

linking XPCOM on OS X

I had a difficult time linking my first XPCOM object on OS X. After searching around and reading various posts I wound up with the following setup for the linker:

 g++ -dynamiclib -o mylibrary.dylib whatever.o -L$(GECKO_SDK)/lib \
 -L$(XULRUNNER) -Wl,-executable_path,$(XULRUNNER) \
 -lxpcomglue_s -lxpcom -lnspr4 -lplc4 

Getting started with XULRunner - "Couldn't parse application.ini"

Getting started with XULRunner - MDC

So after working through this example for a bit on OS X I kept receiving "Couldn't parse application.ini" after attempting to use xulrunner-bin with my application.ini.

It turns out I was using a relative path:

/Library/Frameworks/XUL.framework/xulrunner-bin ./application.ini

thus causes the error, but:

/Library/Frameworks/XUL.framework/xulrunner-bin ~/Documents/Xul/myapp/application.ini

succeeds.
