objective-c如何在linux下进入Modern模式

时间：2023-12-04 18:29:50

自从apple的obj-c进入2.0后，出现了相对于Legacy模式的Modern模式；Modern模式中出现了一些高级功能(比如ARC)，并且出现了一些新的字面语法，新旧模式的差别可以参考apple官方的：

two Platforms 参考文档

在linux中（以下均以ubuntu 15.04为例），默认的clang以及gnustep是不支持Modern模式的；需要清楚的是Modern必须由libobjc2以及libgnustep-base.so同时支持才可以实现。

所以我们必须在系统安装libobjc2和对应的libgnustep-base.so。

  1. 确保系统处于“全新”状态，所谓的“全新”是指没有安装过任何llvm，clang尤其是gnustep的任何文件。如果以前安装过的化必须全部清除干净。/usr/local/lib和/usr/lib中不能残留任何libgnustep*的库
  2. 先密集安装所需的库吧（有些是可选项）：
sudo apt-get install cmake
sudo apt-get install build-essential git subversion ninja
sudo apt-get install libffi-dev libxml2-dev libgnutls-dev libicu-dev
sudo apt-get install libblocksruntime-dev libkqueue-dev
sudo apt-get install libpthread-workqueue-dev autoconf libtool
sudo apt-get install curl
sudo apt-get install auto-apt
sudo apt-get install libjpeg
sudo apt-get install libjpeg-dev libtiff-dev libpng12-dev
sudo apt-get install libcups2-dev libfreetype6-dev libcairo2-dev
sudo apt-get install libxt-dev libgl1-mesa-dev
  1. 然后安装clang和llvm
  2. 下载libobjc2（下载地址）；编译命令如下:
echo "export CC=clang" >> ~/.bashrc
echo "export CXX=clang++" >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
export CC=clang
export CXX=clang++
cd libobjc2
rm -rf build
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make debug=no
sudo -E make install

实际执行中发现在cmake ..这一步发生错误，错误日志如下:

不需要到CMakeFiles目录中去看CMakeError.log，其实出错原因上面已经说的很清楚了，解决办法却没那么简单，直接做软链接还是会出错，以下是我的解决办法：首先下载llvm:

 svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk llvm

然后执行cmake:

cd llvm
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..

注意这里后面不需要make，我只要取得cmake生成的一系列*.cmake文件！最终将生成的文件拷贝到指定位置：

cd /usr/lib/llvm-3.5/share/llvm/cmake
sudo cp /home/wisy/src/llvm/build/share/llvm/cmake/* .

再次进入libobjc2/build执行cmake ..，这回没有错误了。

接下来执行安装libobjc2库：

make debug=no
sudo -E make install

5.下载libdispatch并安装:

git clone https://github.com/nickhutchinson/libdispatch.git
export CC=clang
export CXX=clang++
cd libdispatch
./configure
make
sudo -E make install
sudo ldconfig

这时如果用Modern模式编译objc代码会出现警告，而且执行时也会有警告提示：

clang `gnustep-config --objc-flags` -g0 -O3 -s -fobjc-arc -fobjc-nonfragile-abi -fblocks -lobjc -ldispatch -lgnustep-base -lgnustep-gui `gnustep-config --objc-libs` -o 2 2.mclang: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-shared-libgcc'

因为libgnustep-base.so还在用老版本的libobjc.so库，所以需要重新编译链接libgnustep-base.so.

6.下载libgnustep-base；这个在configure后，make出错，链接时报大量的符号找不到定义。后来没办法，下载gnustep:

svn co http://svn.gna.org/svn/gnustep/modules/core

然后进入core/scripts目录，执行：

./compile-all

最后在/usr/lib中会出现最新的libgnustep-base.so

如果./compile-all没有生成.so文件则建议依次到base和gui目录中去单独编译。到这里基本上OK了，可以用以下命令行编译：

clang `gnustep-config --objc-flags` -g0 -O3 -s -fobjc-arc -fobjc-nonfragile-abi -fblocks -lobjc -ldispatch -lgnustep-base -lgnustep-gui `gnustep-config --objc-libs` -I/usr/include/GNUstep/ -I/usr/local/include/GNUstep/ -o 9 9.m

可以参考老外写的详细安装日志，但我具体实现下来貌似一些步骤无法实现：
