[dciabrin]

This is due to recent clang 12 that doesn't like gdb 8.3.1 anymore due to stricter compilation defaults. I have to change the default build flags in subproject ngdevkit-toolchain to fix that. Meanwhile, I think you might get around it by exporting the following variables before you compile the devkit:

fixflags="-Wno-implicit-function-declaration"
export CFLAGS=$fixflags
export CXXFLAGS=$fixflags
export CPPFLAGS=$fixflags

Also, I just pushed a update to the README this morning regarding the dependencies you need for building on macOS lately. Please make sure that you install sdl2 with brew install sdl2, and also that you install sox if you want to build all example ROMS.

Now seems like yer OpenGL is not being found. Im on BigSur.

Thanks Damien

Hmm I don't have access to BigSur locally unfortunately and the CI environment I'm using are stuck on 10.15...

Could you check in ./build/gngeo/config.log, you should have the output of the autoconf test that failed. On my system, the gl headers come from brew's SDL2 and the compilation succeeds with:

configure:6893: error: Could not find a valid OpenGL implementation

[dciabrin]

Oh that's apparently the same clang error that you hit with gdb. Maybe the variables that you exported earlier are not passed correctly to gngeo when it's being configured. I'm going to try and reproduce on my macOS 10.15 plus recent clang, this shouldn't be specific to Big Sur.
Meanwhile if you feel courageous, you can temporarily disable gngeo compilation by building the devkit with:

./configure <your-build-flags> --enable-external-gngeo

and rely on mame until I come up with a fix.

[dciabrin]

So I think I have a fairly recent clang version:

$ clang --version
Apple clang version 12.0.0 (clang-1200.0.32.29)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin19.6.0
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin

But I can't immediately reproduce your issue. I wonder if it could be related to the gl.h file that is being autodetected; maybe that specific one doesn't define glCreateProgram and that is what causes the failure. Do you know what package provides this file on your system?

I'll try to always inject the -Wno-implicit-function-declaration in gngeo's configure script anyway, and hope that the built binary will be able to initialize GLSL.

[dciabrin]

The two commits above should make clang happy. You need to update your local copy of ngdevkit's repo and delete the downloaded copy of gngeo. Tell me if this fixes your compilation woes.

Thanks seems like it's still getting some errors.

Hmm this one is more complex to troubleshoot. It means the gcc cross compiler failed to build, as to why I have no idea yet because ngdevkit-toolchain doesn't produce an easily parseable compilation log.

Did you spot another earlier error when building in ./build/nggcc?
If you don't have any logs available, I shall try to put my hands on a Big Sur env and test the build myself to check whether I can reproduce it easily.

I think the very first error was trying to create two folders here, permissions error to create that folders:

/usr/local/m68k-neogeo-elf/
/usr/local/z80-neogeo-ihx/

And then the very first error I believe it's this one:

ok, I have no good means of installing the devkit from source into a directory which doesn't have write permission, because the compilation and the installtion process are somehow intertwined and I don't want to run sudo in the makefile directly.

For now, I'm afraid your best option is to reconfigure the toolkit to deploy into an isolated directory with write permission. By default it's /local
