Gull compilation for OS X

[Dariusz]

Could someone compile latest Gull to mac binary ?

I like style of play this engine, and I would using it in my IMac.

[JoshPettus]

Your best bet is to follow the wine directions on the OSX xboard thread. I try to make it as simple as possible.

I got 64bit gull running just fine.

[EDIT] Better yet I'll just copy paste here

Windows Engines on OSX:

You can use wine to run Windows chess engines in XBoard.app! (or any other UI for that matter)

By far the easiest method of installing wine is to simply download this wineskin engine (Although it is meant for Wineskin apps, it is a complete installation of wine with all necessary libraries placed in a convenient bundle and supports OSX 10.6)

http://www.mediafire.com/download/um1xc ... .51.tar.7z

Extract this file completely (Use TheUnarchiver, or something similar, for the 7zip decompression) and you will get a file called wswine.bundle.

Place this in your Documents folder or wherever you prefer.

Next, launch XBoard.app and go to the Engines -> Edit Engine List... window. You can add engines by manually typing them in like so:

Code: Select all

    "Engine" -fcp "~/Documents/wswine.bundle/bin/wine /Directory/to/Engine/Engine.exe" -fd "/Directory/to/Engine" -fUCI (if UCI engine)

Or if you want to be able to select the engine in your Engine -> Load 1st/2nd Engine Dialog, you can also create a textfile with no extension and add the -fcp information there. i.e.:

Code: Select all

    ~/Documents/wswine.bundle/bin/wine /Directory/to/Engine/Engine.exe 

Then, select the script as if it were a native engine in the Load Engine dialog.

The first time you launch an engine, wine will try to configure itself and the engine may fail. Hit cancel to any Wine Gecko install popup, and relaunch the engine. It should then run on the next launch.

Note!: Wine64 is extremely experimental! The bundle supports 64 bit to a limited capacity. Some 64 bit engines may work, others may not... 32 bit engines will have much more common success.

Joshua, thank you for your replay.

Hi Joshua,

great that you got wine64 running for (most) chess engines on the Mac!

Unfortunately this error messages comes up when tested from the terminal:

Any idea? My Mac still runs on 10.9.5.

-Thanks Max

[JoshPettus]

file too short.... Well that is the file. Sure beats me. You would think every engine needs to use libwine. why is it complaining here?

A bit of a long shot but I compiled 1.7.52
http://www.mediafire.com/download/caym7 ... .52.tar.7z
Doubt it would work as it was compiled from the same method, but you never know. I'm sure its a library linking problem, I may have to rexamine my build script.

[EDIT] Well libwine.1.dylib is actually a symlink hence why it could be too short. I don't understand why, programs call upon symlinked libraries all the time as versions change. But what if you deleted both libwine.1.dylib symlinks in both lib and lib64 folders, duplicated the original libwine.1.0.dylibs and renamed the duplicates libwine.1.dylib? Sorry I don't have komodo.

[Max]

Used Komodo 5 just as an example (it's free now and there is a native Mac version too). The error happened with every chess engine at my system.

With your new version, the previous error disappeared, and i.e. 32 bit Stockfish 6 and Komodo 5 work ... but both 64 bit engines don’t.

[JoshPettus]

I think you're suppose to clear out the old ~/.wine folder, and let it generate a new 64bit possible one. the 32 bit will still work

OK, deleted ~/.wine and this issue is gone. 32 bit engines still work, but 64 bit (Stockfish 6 & Komodo 5 tested) now crash with this output:

Those look like legitimate 64bit errors. 64bit is extremely, extremely experimental on OSX. The wine devs would be surprised to know that I got any 64bit code to run at all.... The ones I got to work so far are 64bit versions of TheKing3.5(cracked to work in winboard), Crafty JA build, Gull and Naum4.6. I admit I haven't tried too many. Stockfish Giraffe, and Fire I know do not work. But stockfish at least has an actual OSX compile, which I would recommend because there is 0 additional overhead. (though I don't know how much that effects the engine) I made an OSX compile of Giraffe for the same reason.

Maybe if I recompile clang to the latest version svn, as since I last compiled it, I think the patch that made this possible has been updated and finalized. It might do a better job compiling, IDK. But I wouldn't hold my breath that that's the issue.

Well done Joshua, hope you can improve wine64 for darwin further more.

You are right, Gull 3 x64 runs well now!

Thanks,
