Compiling as you showed worked just fine to produce the MathLink
executables 'delaunay' and 'contour.'
However, there were compiler warnings when I applied gcc for both
'image' and 'mandelbrot', as follows (where i use "\" for continuation
of input because the long command line input won't fit on a single line
here:
$ $MLROOT/mprep image.tm > image.tm.c
$ gcc -o image -I$MLROOT -L$MLROOT -lMLi3 -lstdc++ -framework \
Foundation -lm image.tm.c
image.tm.c: In function =91sendimage=92:
image.tm.c:308: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of
built-in function =91malloc=92
image.tm.c:321: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of
built-in function =91sprintf=92
image.tm.c: At top level:
image.tm.c:344: warning: prototype for =91sendimage=92 follows
non-prototype definition
$ $MLROOT/mprep mandelbrot.tm > mandelbrot.tm.c
$ gcc -o mandelbrot -I$MLROOT -L$MLROOT -lMLi3 -lstdc++ -framework \
Foundation -lm mandelbrot.tm.c
mandelbrot.tm.c:402: warning: prototype for =91sendimage=92 follows
non-prototype definition
And then, of course, when I load either ExtendGraphics`Image` or
ExtendGraphics`Mandelbrot`, I get an error:
LinkOpen::linke: Specified file is not a MathLink executable...
Can you suggest how to fix this. Or, in the alternative, supply
Macintosh OS X versions of the executables 'mandelbrot' and 'image'
(compatible with current OS X versions).
