Building VLC on a Mac

Postby tryvlcc » 22 Jun 2023 05:34

Hi,

I compiled the VLC code on my mac using the "./extras/package/macosx/build.sh -c" script as per the instructions here: https://wiki.videolan.org/MacOSCompile/ ... le_command

The build runs and I do not get any errors. At the same time I do not see an executable created or anything in the /build directory. I reached out to VLC support and they asked me to provide a console.log file. I can not find this file and I am not getting an answer from them where the file is located so that I can forward it to them.

What should happen after the build script above runs? Is there an executable created in one of the folders? How can I debug/run VLC?

Is there a way to get some support in order to successfully build VLC so that I can start coding - specific forum here or real time or any other way? Anyone here has experience with building the code who can help - I will appreciate it.

You may want to repost to the Troubleshooting for MacOS board - this is only for "General VLC media player troubleshooting"
