osx-snow-leopard

I've just upgraded my Mac to Snow Leopard and got my Rails environment up and running. The only difference -- OSX aside -- with my previous install is that I'm now running ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [universal-darwin10.0] (Snow Leopard default) rather than 1.8.6. I'm now seeing deprecation warnings relating to OpenSSL when I run my code: warning: argumtents for OpenSSL::Cipher::Cipher#encrypt and OpenSSL::Cipher::Cipher#decrypt were deprecated; use OpenSSL::Cipher::Cipher#pkcs5_keyivgen to derive key and IV Example of my code which is causing these warnings (it decodes an encrypted

i'm having a hell of a time installing scrapy on my sl mbp. it requires libxml2, so i set about installing that. installing it from macports doesn't seem to pull down the python binding. installing it from source through scrapy's instructions ( here ) does install the python bindings, but when i run 'python -c "import libxml2"' i get an architecture mismatch: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> File "libxml2.py", line 1, in <module> import libxml2mod ImportError: dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site- packages/libxml2mod

Everytime I try to use install_name_tool on my machine it reports the following install_name_tool: object: Abacate malformed object (unknown load command 4) I read that it could be an error when building the binary. In order to check I create the simplest hello world c++ program and try to change something using install_name_tool. Didn't work. What Am I doing wrong? Currently I have XCode 4.2 running Snow Leopard OS. Maarten O. Apparently install_name_tool is not updated when XCode is updated. You need to install the Command Line Tools from XCode Preferences. See also install_name_tool on OS X

How can I check (step-by-step ) the version of mySQL installed on my Mac 10.8.5? I tried using command prompt, but couldn't figure out. Every time you used the mysql console, the version is shown. $ mysql -u user Successful console login shows the following which includes the mysql server version. Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 1432 Server version: 5.5.9-log Source distribution Copyright (c) 2000, 2010, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

How can I update Numpy into the newest one? Should I download .dmg file from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/ Is this .dmg only for 10.5? I have installed numpy using these instructions: http://www.scipy.org/Installing_SciPy/Mac_OS_X My current Numpy is 1.2.1. I'm running on Mac OS X 10.6.1 Snow Leopard. Thanks! sudo easy_install -U numpy Installing via setuptools will get the new numpy on the sys.path for non-system utilties (I've been told that some Apple utilities rely on the system-numpy). In general, setuptools will "do the right" thing on OS X. Use pip install -U numpy

I am trying to create an Application on Mac OS X Lion which requires application to be assigned to All Desktops (Spaces). This can be manually done by Right clicking on application's dock icon and Selecting Options > Assign To > All Desktops . But, I need to find a way to do this via Objective C. Is there a way to achieve this programmatically? You can use method setCollectionBehavior: of NSWindow with the NSWindowCollectionBehaviorCanJoinAllSpaces bitwise flag. It will make the window visible on all spaces. NSUInteger collectionBehavior; // Gets the current collection behavior of the window

I am using MacOSX Snow Leopard 10.6.8.... I am the only user on this machine and I should be admin. I trying to edit my bash_profile to give it this simple alias: alias server=' open http://localhost:8000 && python -m SimpleHTTPServer' however when I use the terminal and type: vim ~/. bash_profile and paste in this alias I get message saying I cant save due to permissions. So then I show all hidden files and go to fix the permissions on this file but the file is all grayed out.... I cant change anything. What can I do?? You need to open it with sudo. sudo vim ~/.bash_profile The file appears

Was someone able to compile the Bochs simulator under Snow Leopard. Leopard worked fine for me but under Snow Leopard I get alot of problems related to the Carbon library... Ok, some more information was request. I compile with make on the shell; stanard build process coming with the bochs sources I was successfully able to compile against the 10.5 SDK. Unfortunatley, it was not running under Snow Leopard... always crashed then I installed the latest XCode from the SnowLeopard CD and compiled against the 10.6 SDK; withot changing nothing but the isysroot flag to point to the 10.6 instead of 10
