Mac version ? about candle HOT 33 CLOSED

I think it's possible.
But I haven't Mac, sorry.

from candle.

you think I could try to do? knowing that I have no knowledge on the subject?

from candle.

Why not?

1. Download Qt for OS X from here: http://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/5.5/5.5.1/qt-opensource-mac-x64-clang-5.5.1.dmg.mirrorlist
2. Install Qt.
3. Download source code of grblControl.
4. Start Qt Creator and open "grbl_control.pro" project file from "src" directory of sources.
5. Build grblControl (look for image bellow).
6. Post any compiling errors here.

Try to replace "std::isnan" with "qIsNaN" in whole project.

Update: also "NAN" macro with "qQNaN()"

from candle.

after changes

from candle.

#include <math.h> to top of interpolation.h

from candle.

result

from candle.

If replace <math.h> with ?

from candle.

from candle.

Sure using ? not <cmath.h>.

from candle.

it's better with cmath

from candle.

Remove

#include "math.h"

from "gcodedrawer.cpp" source file. Or replace with #include if failed to compile.

from candle.

same result with two

from candle.

Think need to repeat previous step for these files:
tooldrawer.cpp
gcodeparser.cpp
gcodepreprocessorutils.cpp

In "heightmapgriddrawer.cpp" line 32 looks the same as:

if (m_model == NULL || qIsNaN(m_model->data(m_model->index(i, j), Qt::UserRole).toDouble())) {

?

from candle.

for "heightmapgriddrawer.cpp" line 50 and 64 also ?

from candle.

Lines 50 & 64 should also have "qIsNaN". Looks like you have "std::isnan" for now.

Use advanced search:

Select "Current project", string to find "std::isnan", check "Case sensitive" and press "Find and replace" button:

Enter "Replace to": "qIsNaN" and press "Replace" button:

It's easy, just repeat previous step to replace "NAN" with "qQNaN()"

from candle.

successful compilation

from candle.

How about pressing big green triangle to try start?

from candle.

the program starts without problems !!!!!
I just connect the milling machine,
it connects.
little problem:
in preferences: colors are all black.
but I can change them manually

from candle.

Need to apply "Default settings" after first start to get normal colors.

from candle.

it is good with to apply "Default settings".
Now i go test command machine manually.

from candle.

THE MACHINE MOOOOOOVE is too good

from candle.

what should he do now?
to install on the Mac.

from candle.

You should use "macdeployqt" util from "QTDIR/bin/" folder to get .dmg file.

Open terminal, change directory to grbl_control build folder with "cd" command (it should be above sources like this one: "build-grbl_control-Desktop_Qt_5_4_2_MinGW_32bit-Release")

cd path_to_grbl_control.app

Then:

$QTDIR/bin/macdeployqt grbl_control.app -dmg

I beleive it will create .dmg file in build directory.

But i don't know what to do with settings file & translations for now.

from candle.

it is complicated for me ....
I look at all this in one hour

from candle.

Ok i understand for create a .dmg
but when i run .dmg i have error

"Dyld Error Message:
Library not loaded: @rpath/QtOpenGL.framework/Versions/5/QtOpenGL
Referenced from: /Applications/grbl_control.app/Contents/MacOS/grbl_control
Reason: image not found"

from candle.

May be change "grbl_control.pro" file:

unix: {
    DEFINES += UNIX #GL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES
    QMAKE_LFLAGS += "-Wl,-rpath,\'\$$ORIGIN/libs\'"
}

to

unix:!macx {
    DEFINES += UNIX #GL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES
    QMAKE_LFLAGS += "-Wl,-rpath,\'\$$ORIGIN/libs\'"
}

will help.

How about just run "grbl_control.app"? Or rebuild, run "macdeployqt" without "-dmg" flag and start "grbl_control.app".

from candle.

grbl_control.app works.
I still tried to do the .dmg but without success.

Thank you anyway.

from candle.

When I disconnect the USB computer "grbl control" crash.

from candle.

Fixed in one of the latest commits.
