Compiling on Snow Leopard

Activity

FWIW, I was able to build successfully on Snow Leopard. Here is what I did:

1) If you build spidermonkey (not python-spidermonkey) from source, copy the jsautocfg.h file it generates over to spidermonkey/Darwin-i386/ (I have attached my copy which you can try out).

2) Edit line 173 of spidermonkey/libjs/jsbit.h to make it as follows: (remove one "long")
```
    JS_STATIC_ASSERT(sizeof(unsigned long) == sizeof(JSUword));
```
3) Patch jsprf.c per
```
    http://github.com/janl/couchdbx-core/blob/ff47372552d10df00d74cb7989dfed4a19a6040d/patches/js/patch-jsprf.c
```
That should do it. All the tests seem to run fine. Hope this helps....

Thanks, Sandman, for posting your solution -- using your changes I too was able to build successfully on Snow Leopard.

However, when I ran python setup.py test I got a mysterious (to me) error:

Not sure if this is because I'm using Python 2.7 (beta 2), or for some other reason. But, at least, running python setup.py install seems to succeed and subsequently the python-spidermonkey examples seem to work =)

Oops, didn't really mean to clear the assigned user. Also meant to have the error message show up as inline code -- is there a way to edit my post?

That looks like something related to nosetests. I'm not doing anything weird there. Does nosetests work with 2.7?

nosetests seems to work:

Ran 107 tests in 6.047s

OK

(ran this in the python-spidermonkey directory)

I reckon it's just a version inconsistency with the between nose and setuptools or what not then.
