Mac version ?

[Xav83130]

Good evening,
it would be possible to compile a version for "Mac"?
If it's not too complicated.
Thank you

[Denvi]

I think it's possible.
But I haven't Mac, sorry.

[Xav83130]

you think I could try to do? knowing that I have no knowledge on the subject?

[Denvi]

Why not?

1. Download Qt for OS X from here: http://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/5.5/5.5.1/qt-opensource-mac-x64-clang-5.5.1.dmg.mirrorlist
2. Install Qt.
3. Download source code of grblControl.
4. Start Qt Creator and open "grbl_control.pro" project file from "src" directory of sources.
5. Build grblControl (look for image bellow).
6. Post any compiling errors here.

1 test and 1 error messages

Try to replace "std::isnan" with "qIsNaN" in whole project.

Update: also "NAN" macro with "qQNaN()"

[Xav83130]

after changes

[Denvi]

#include <math.h> to top of interpolation.h

[Xav83130]

result

[Denvi]

If replace <math.h> with ?

[Xav83130]

[Denvi]

Sure using ? not <cmath.h>.

[Xav83130]

it's better with cmath

[Denvi]

Remove

#include "math.h"

from "gcodedrawer.cpp" source file. Or replace with #include if failed to compile.

[Xav83130]

same result with two

[Denvi]

Think need to repeat previous step for these files:
tooldrawer.cpp
gcodeparser.cpp
gcodepreprocessorutils.cpp

In "heightmapgriddrawer.cpp" line 32 looks the same as:

if (m_model == NULL || qIsNaN(m_model->data(m_model->index(i, j), Qt::UserRole).toDouble())) {

?

[Xav83130]

for "heightmapgriddrawer.cpp" line 50 and 64 also ?

[Denvi]

Lines 50 & 64 should also have "qIsNaN". Looks like you have "std::isnan" for now.

Use advanced search:

Select "Current project", string to find "std::isnan", check "Case sensitive" and press "Find and replace" button:

Enter "Replace to": "qIsNaN" and press "Replace" button:

[Xav83130]

[Denvi]

It's easy, just repeat previous step to replace "NAN" with "qQNaN()"

[Xav83130]

successful compilation

[Denvi]

How about pressing big green triangle to try start?

[Xav83130]

the program starts without problems !!!!!
I just connect the milling machine,
it connects.
little problem:
in preferences: colors are all black.
but I can change them manually

[Denvi]

Need to apply "Default settings" after first start to get normal colors.

[Xav83130]

it is good with to apply "Default settings".
Now i go test command machine manually.

[Xav83130]

THE MACHINE MOOOOOOVE is too good

[Xav83130]

what should he do now?
to install on the Mac.

[Denvi]

You should use "macdeployqt" util from "QTDIR/bin/" folder to get .dmg file.

Open terminal, change directory to grbl_control build folder with "cd" command (it should be above sources like this one: "build-grbl_control-Desktop_Qt_5_4_2_MinGW_32bit-Release")

cd path_to_grbl_control.app

Then:

$QTDIR/bin/macdeployqt grbl_control.app -dmg

I beleive it will create .dmg file in build directory.

But i don't know what to do with settings file & translations for now.

[Xav83130]

it is complicated for me ....
I look at all this in one hour

[Xav83130]

Ok i understand for create a .dmg
but when i run .dmg i have error

"Dyld Error Message:
Library not loaded: @rpath/QtOpenGL.framework/Versions/5/QtOpenGL
Referenced from: /Applications/grbl_control.app/Contents/MacOS/grbl_control
Reason: image not found"

[Denvi]

May be change "grbl_control.pro" file:

unix: {
    DEFINES += UNIX #GL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES
    QMAKE_LFLAGS += "-Wl,-rpath,\'\$$ORIGIN/libs\'"
}

to

unix:!macx {
    DEFINES += UNIX #GL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES
    QMAKE_LFLAGS += "-Wl,-rpath,\'\$$ORIGIN/libs\'"
}

will help.

How about just run "grbl_control.app"? Or rebuild, run "macdeployqt" without "-dmg" flag and start "grbl_control.app".

[Xav83130]

grbl_control.app works.
I still tried to do the .dmg but without success.

Thank you anyway.

[Xav83130]

When I disconnect the USB computer "grbl control" crash.

[Denvi]

Fixed in one of the latest commits.
