Can't build lime ios from source

Lime
#1

I am trying to build lime from source so I can try the latest Tilemap stuff in OpenFL. I’m finding it a nightmare.

I installed lime using

$ haxelib git
Library name : lime
Git path : https://github.com/openfl/lime

I then ran

haxelib run lime build lime ios

This struggled for a very long time with lots of stuff but ultimately prints out

I can’t find anyone with this issue and I have no idea what this means. Anyone know what to do?

#2

for what it’s worth I’ve just tried the exact instructions at

using git clone manually instead of haxelib. The result is exactly the same.

#3

Just to add I would rather not bother building lime from source at all if possible but it appears that I can’t use openfl master without lime master:

I think that the error is being spit out somewhere before the text you pasted in your first post. Can you post the complete log somewhere?

Hello :slight_smile:

If you use Lime from source, be sure to clone submodules, and run lime rebuild mac then lime rebuild ios before attempting any builds.

The “cairo-fixed.o has no symbols” message is a warning – not an error. There’s nothing to worry about there

“lime-master” and “openfl-master” should match the haxelib versions, while each also has a development branch that’s beyond the current haxelib release
