Bug 2141

Summary: testfilesystem fails to link on Mac
Product: SDL Reporter: Joseph Carter <tjcarter>
Component: fileAssignee: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Status: RESOLVED FIXED QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: normal    
Priority: P2    
Version: HG 2.1   
Hardware: x86_64   
OS: Mac OS X 10.8   

Description Joseph Carter 2013-10-08 21:15:44 UTC 
I just ran make in my tests dir and got:

$ make
gcc -o testfilesystem testfilesystem.c -g -O2 -D_THREAD_SAFE -I/opt/local/include/SDL2  -I -DHAVE_OPENGL -DHAVE_SDL_TTF -L/opt/local/lib -lSDL2  -lSDL2_test
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
  "_SDL_GetBasePath", referenced from:
      _main in ccfXfB0A.o
  "_SDL_GetPrefPath", referenced from:
      _main in ccfXfB0A.o
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [testfilesystem] Error 1

I see that these functions are defined in src/filesystem/cocoa/SDL_sysfilesystem.m and I can see that the objects compiled therefrom do contain the strings.

Calling convention issue maybe?
