Ncurses Library On Mac

broken image


Question or issue on macOS:

I am trying to find the standard C library on Mac OS X. I've tried paths like: '/usr/lib/libc.a' or '/usr/lib/libm.a' , but there are no such files on the system. Could you tell me where to find it?

How to install ncurses. Well installing ncurses library is an easy task, you just have to follow the steps listed below: Installing ncurses on Debian/Ubuntu Linux. Sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev; Installing ncurses on Mac OS X. Install Homebrew (if not already): /usr/bin/ruby -e '$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent. Problem with curses library on Mac OS 10.2 darwin Hello, I am trying to write a simple program with functions in the ncurses library, on a Mac running OSX 10.2.8, with the compiler and libraries that were included in the Dec 2002 Developer's tools release (the last one that runs on Jaguar, as far as I know).

Then I used Terminal at a Linux machine and run such command:

Ncurses Library On Mac Os

It returns a list of .o files and those .o files are like these:

What are the meanings of these files? where to find them?

How to solve this problem?

Solution no. 1:

The standard library is part of libSystem.dylib on OS X.

Solution no. 2:

It looks like it is:

on my machine (MacOS X 10.6.7).

You can find out using otool — this is on a Mac running macOS 10.14.2 Mojave, and the (very simple) program was built using Clang from XCode:

Mainstage 3.4.3 crack. Other programs have more libraries. For example, this Tower of Hanoi program was built with a home-built GCC 8.2.0 and the ncurses library:

And another program uses still more:

And system programs may use other libraries and frameworks:

There are many other jobs that can be done with otool — look at the man page.

Solution no. 3:

To answer your second question: static libraries are kept in archive files, hence the .a. As such they are just containers for a bunch of files, just like ZIP, TAR, RAR, etc. minus any compression. Those files listed by the ar (stands for archive) utility are the original files packed into the archive. You could unpack it and get the original files.

Static libraries are in stark contrast to dynamic libraries. A static library's contents are extracted by the linker and included into your program upon linking, as if they were just results of other compilation stages of your program's build process.

Dynamic libraries OTOH are not just archives of object files, but they're linked executables by itself and the dynamic linker maps them into the linking processes address space and adjusts the symbol tables to match the mapped address.

Solution no. 4:

To answer the other half of your question, OS X does not generally use static libraries (.a). As such, there is no libc.a (or libSystem.a) on OS X.

Solution no. 5:

Actually it does exist at /usr/lib/system/libsystem_c.dylib.

You can verify that with: $ nm -gU /usr/lib/system/libsystem_c.dylib

Hope this helps!

I made some updates to the CursesSharp project, so check out the update README.md for details:

INTRODUCTION

CursesSharp is a C# wrapper for curses library.The latest version of this ‘fork'‘ can be found at Github.The original version can be found at the SourceForge.net project page.

DOCUMENTATION

CursesSharp consists of a .NET assembly (CursesSharp.dll) and a native wrapper shared library (DLL) which is linked with PDCurses (in Windows) or ncurses (in Unix-like systems). This wrapper library is called CursesWrapper.dll in Windows or libCursesWrapper.so in Unix or libCursesWrapper.dylib in OS-X. CursesSharp provides a bit cleanerAPI to curses than the original one, although function names remain unchanged for the most part.

CursesSharp namespace contains several important classes:

  • Defs - contains constants from curses: attribute, color and key definitions as well as some macros (COLOR_PAIR, PAIR_NUMBER)
  • Curses - the main interface to curses; contains methods global to the library, a StdScr property that returns the stdscr window, and as a convenience, some window-specific functions that operate on stdscr
  • Window - represents a curses window that can be written to, or read from; contains wrappers for most of curses functions with names starting with w or mvw
  • CursesException - an exception class, thrown when a curses function reports an error

Documentation is (always) under construction. Help would be much appreciated.

Also, it allows you to record your Mac screen with audio from your system sound, microphone or both simultaneously to make your video much more interactive. Besides, you can adjust the video frame, bitrate, etc. Turn what you see on the screen to a screencast with audio synced in no time! Convert the Recorded Video: With the built-in video converter, you can convert the recorded MOV video to MP4, AVI, FLV, MKV and many more formats. https://cievocisi1970.mystrikingly.com/blog/logilink-video-grabber-mac-software.

Installing CursesSharp on OS-X

These are the instructions for building CursesSharp on OS-X.

The build process has been tested on:

  • OS-X 10.10.5
  • Apple LLVM version 7.0.0 (clang-700.1.76)
  • Mono JIT compiler version 4.2.1 64-bit build.

0. Prerequisites

The native library is now built as a ‘fat' library so either a Mono 32-bit or 64-bit build can be used.

$> file libCursesWrapper.so

1. Getting CursesSharp

You can clone it from the following repository:

2. Make the Native Library

3. Make the C# Libraries and Demos

Note: To run the demos from the CLI, make sure that set the DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH. While still in the repo's root directory:

Ncurses Library On Mac Catalina

There is also a CI script that can be called via source to setup DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH

To learn more about dyld check out the man page:

Demos:

Ncurses Library On Mac Mojave

There are various demos available to review:

  • Demo.CursesSharp.Firework
  • Demo.CursesSharp.Gui.HelloWorld
  • Demo.CursesSharp.HelloWorld
  • Demo.CursesSharp.Rain
  • Demo.CursesSharp.Unicode
  • Demo.Gui.MessageBox
  • Demo.Gui.MidnightCommander
  • Demo.Gui.Timeout
  • Demo.Native.ResizeTerm

Installing CursesSharp on Linux

0. Prerequisites

Note: It is assumed you are running 64-bit Linux (ARCH x86_64)

Install some dependencies:

1. Getting CursesSharp

You will have to obtain CursesSharp sources. You clone it from the following repository:

2. Make the Native Library

3. Make the C# Libraries and Demos
