[mapserver-users] building mapserver/mapscript on Mac OS/X

[Chris Stuber]

I've got a client who ask me to try to get mapserver running on a powerpc
running Max OS/X (Darwin) which smells like a BSD unix os.  Mapserver and all of
the supporting packages seem to compile OK, but it seems that swig and mapscript
are giving trouble.  The compiler is based on gcc 2.95.2 1 and it has trouble
with data type defined with 'static' which used in swig and also generated in
the
mapscript_wrap.c output...   I suspect there is a missing -D (define) or
something not right
with the swig build.   Has anyone ever run across a problem like this?   Any
ideas would be
extremely helpful.

Thanks,
