Trouble installing on Mac OS X 10.7

Reported by Eric Man | September 25th, 2012 @ 09:16 AM

What is "jsautocfg.h"?

Here is the error log:

    I moved the file from the Darwin-XXX folder inside spidermonkey to spider monkey/libjs to get through this error.

    Here's another error.
    ...

    To get through this error, I changed line 76 of jsutil.h from:
    typedef int js_static_assert_line##line[(condition) ? 1 : -1]
    to:
    typedef int js_static_assert_line
    ##line[(condition) ? 1 : 0]

    I'm not sure. There's also this patch that I haven't had time to test thoroughly but might help you:

    • Tag set to osx 10.8

    This also happens on OSX 10.8..

    1. git clone git://github.com/davisp/python-spidermonkey.git
    2. cd python-spidermonkey
    3. python setup.py build

    The same 2 errors as above are happening. If I modify the 2 files like mentioned above, compiling is fine, but getting following error:

    import spidermonkey rt = spidermonkey.Runtime() cx = rt.new_context() cx.execute("1+2") Segmentation fault: 11

    Too bad, really need spidermonkey for OSX 10.8. Any ideas what might cause the compilation errors?

    Thank's

    Also working with the patch that you've mentioned in another ticket didn't work so far.
    Here's the output that I've got for
    building:
    http://pastebin.com/n5LSY36c
    and testing:
    http://pastebin.com/YF1VAsLx

    My C++ skills are not that good to tackle this thing alone, but one idea would be if there are some problems with 64bit systems?

    i've found this page Link
    There is a comment mentioning:

    I have an idea that you should be using the 64-bit version of jsautocfg.h, not the 32-bit one. :-)
    

    Is this version of python-spidermonkey only for 32bit systems?

    Thanks

    I see there are some forks trying to fix these issues, but I don't see anything being merged into the main repo. Is this project still being worked on? After making all the above changes it can be compiled but python crashes when you try to execute javascript.

Python/JavaScript bridge module, making use of Mozilla's spidermonkey JavaScript implementation. Allows implementation of JavaScript classes, objects and functions in Python, and evaluation and calling of JavaScript scripts and functions respectively. Borrows heavily from Claes Jacobssen's Javascript Perl module, in turn based on Mozilla's 'PerlConnect' Perl binding.
