In Mac OS X, what's the role of /usr/lib/dyld?

- by diciu

How is a binary executed? I'm guessing /usr/lib/dyld loads shared libraries into the binary's memory space and then jumps to whatever the program counter points to under LC_UNIXTHREAD. But who and how executes dyld?

geographic location uri scheme

- by diciu

I'd like to use a URI scheme to enable the users of one of my apps to share geographic locations. I don't want to invent my own URI scheme and "geo" seems the most appropriate but there are only two Internet Drafts on the subject (draft-mayrhofer-geo-uri-01, draft-mayrhofer-geo-uri-02), both expired and wildly different in the way they approach the standard. Is there an URI that's suited for encoding latitude and longitude and that made it as an RFC? Should I use a generic URI such as the tag URI scheme?

Undefined symbols compiling apache module mod_transform on Mac OS X

- by Laurence Rowe

I'm trying to compile mod_transform on Mac OS X 10.6, but get an ld error while running make. Thanks to diciu I have added some CFLAGS which resolve most of the linking problems, but I still am unable to get the apreq2 linking to work $ CFLAGS="-lxml2 -lxslt -L/opt/local/lib -lapreq2" ./configure --with-apr=/opt/local/bin/apr-1-config --with-apr-util=/opt/local/bin/apu-1-config --with-apxs=/opt/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-apreq2=/opt/local/bin/apreq2-config ...snip... $ make $ make Making all in src /opt/local/share/apr-1/build/libtool --tag=CC --mode=link gcc -Wall -I../include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/libxml2 -O2 -arch x86_64 -I/opt/local/include -DDARWIN -DSIGPROCMASK_SETS_THREAD_MASK -no-cpp-precomp -I/opt/local/apache2/include -I/opt/local/include/apr-1 -I/opt/local/include/apr-1 -I/opt/local/include -O2 -arch x86_64 -I/opt/local/include -DDARWIN -DSIGPROCMASK_SETS_THREAD_MASK -no-cpp-precomp -I/opt/local/apache2/include -I/opt/local/include/apr-1 -I/opt/local/include -I/opt/local/include/apr-1 -I/opt/local/include/apreq2 -I/opt/local/include/apr-1 -I/opt/local/include -lxml2 -lxslt -L/opt/local/lib -lapreq2 -module -export-dynamic -avoid-version -no-undefined /opt/local/lib/libapreq2.la -L/opt/local/lib -laprutil-1 -L/opt/local/lib/db46 -L/opt/local/lib -lapr-1 -lpthread -ldb-4.6 -lexpat -liconv -o http.la -rpath /opt/local/apache2/modules/mod_transform http_la-http.lo /usr/bin/gcc-4.2 -o .libs/http.so -bundle .libs/http_la-http.o -lxml2 -lxslt -L/opt/local/lib /opt/local/lib/libapreq2.dylib -L/opt/local/lib/db46 /opt/local/lib/libaprutil-1.dylib /opt/local/lib/libapr-1.dylib -lpthread /opt/local/lib/db46/libdb-4.6.dylib /opt/local/lib/libexpat.dylib /opt/local/lib/libiconv.dylib -arch x86_64 -arch x86_64 Undefined symbols: "_apreq_handle_apache2", referenced from: _transform_run_begin in http_la-http.o _filter_init in http_la-http.o ld: symbol(s) not found collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [http.la] Error 1 make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Anyone have any other tweaks to fix this?
