hi – happy to help (although we are ironing out some kinks with addons right now, so the info is changing underfoot) -
first, let’s backup - why are you adding fmod. in 0.03, we moved to fmodex, which should have been included in your 0.03 download. adding fmod (pre fmodex) is going to cause all kinds of issues (because it uses the same “.h” files as fmodex) and isn’t at all necessary for ofOsc. is there a reason why you are adding it? It’s going to cause a world of pain and the sound player stuff, based on fmodex, will break badly…
I think the order of operations for ofOsc (which we could help with) but just to get you a sense of how we do it:
a) download 0.03 for mac, make sure the examples compile, etc
b) download oscPack for mac, try to compile it (because I don’t believe we have compiled it yet) as a lib
c) put the lib / .h files into a folder
here’s where the instructions are shifting, from day to day as we figure out exactly how do this. today, we are thinking of and working on a folder system like this:
libs
apps
addons
you would put ofOsc and oscpack in the addons. then the next step is to get the includes and linkage right for the project you want ofOsc in.
I hope this description is a good starting point. we are working very hard on this issue right now and hope to have a set of clear guidlines and steps soon.
Hi Zach thanks for the quick reply. I wasn’t aware about fmodx so now i added it to my app.
While looking for OSC support in OF I used the links you mentioned here http://www.openframeworks.cc/forum/view-…-hlight=osc
and am trying to run the ‘oscreceiveExample’ provided in the OSC addon. Having never used OSC i wanted to inspect this example, and thats why I am trying to get it to run.
So now after using fmodx i get another error which is this
i686-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.1: OpenFW0.03/app/oscReceiveExample/…/…/libs/openFrameworks/sound/ofFmodUtils.cpp: No such file or directory
I can’t find ofFmodUtils.cpp anywhere on my system.
Also will I have to compile oscPack? Since my oscpack folder already contains some files in the lib folder- “liboscpack.a” and “oscpack.lib”. I have gone ahead and added oscpack to requiredlibs in my project.
Ok now i understand. i did that and this is the latest
/usr/bin/ld: archive: /Users/iamok/wobidog/sem03/openframeworks/OpenFW0.03/app/OSCTEST/…/…/libs/oscpack/lib/oscpack.lib has no table of contents, add one with ranlib(1) (can’t load from it)
I just did-
ranlib: warning for library: oscpack.lib the table of contents is empty (no object file members in the library define global symbols)
openframeworks/OpenFW0.03/libs/oscpack/lib
ok i think ranlib did make a difference. the project compiles but exits with this at console
openFrameworks has exited due to signal 5 (SIGTRAP).

it worked!! i had a rogue “liboscpack.so” file added to my oscpack requiredlibs folder. I removed it from the project leaving only liboscpack.a and oscpack.lib behind.
I will now play around with it and let you know if all is well. atleast for now the app compiles and runs!
