MacOS Catalina support?

[Muyfa666]

Thanks alot for trying to fix this.

The 2.1.0 build crashes, but at least it's a different error, so some kind of some progress.

I'm not sure if I'm missing something that ScummVM needs. The Mac is fairly new and quite clean, app and install wise.

The 2.1.0 build crashes

That's not good news. Can you please take a look at FAQ 5.6 and provide the information you get?

[Muyfa666]

I've attached both the crash report and a text file. Can you use any of them?

[criezy]

That doesn't look too good. I will have to dig a bit deeper into this.
I have two questions:

• You indicated previously that he official 2.0.0 release works for you. Correct?
• Do you have one of those recent macbook with a touch bar above the keyboard?

The issue seems to come from the touch bar, but since I don't have one of those that is something that is difficult for me to test. I will try to prepare several builds for you this evening to see which one works and if we can narrow down the issue.

[Muyfa666]

Yes, the standard official 2.0.0.1 works fine. And I do have a 2019 MBP13 with touch bar.

Muyfa666, could you please try the following two versions:

1. https://www.dropbox.com/s/8jvzirjrzv7x2 ... p.dmg?dl=0
2. https://www.dropbox.com/s/2y96wb4g05obo ... 7.dmg?dl=0

The first one is basically the same as the one I had prepared for the official release, so it will probably crash. However I didn't strip the debug information, so the crash log will hopefully be more useful. Please try it, and if it indeed crashes provide the crash log as well as the content of the ~/Library/Logs/scummvm.log file. This file is overwritten every time you start ScummVM, so be sure to get its content just after you tried this version (you can for example type cat ~/Library/Logs/scummvm.log in a Terminal.app window).

The second one might work. It uses the same SDL2 library I used for the 2.0.0 release (while I tried to use a more recent one for the 2.1.0 release). So that will tell us if the issue comes from the newer SDL2 library or something else.

I have also made some further changes to try to fix the 64 bits daily build. We will know tomorrow if that worked or not.

[Muyfa666]

The first one does not seem to be a 64-bit app, so I can't even run it.

The second one crashes.

I've provided the crash log from the second one.

[criezy]

Sorry, I indeed made a mistake. The first link should now provide the correct 64 bits version that contains debug information.

[Muyfa666]

Now it's 64-bit indeed, and it's still crashing.

Here are the logs.

[criezy]

Thank you. This last crash report makes a lot more sense.
From what I can see iIt seems to point to a bug in macOS Catalina when it customize the touch bar when an application starts.This is probably triggered by something we do in ScummVM and that changed between version 2.0.0 and 2.1.0, but I can't quite think what that might be.

I will need to spend more time on this but this may take some time (especially as I am traveling during the next two weeks and will not have much time).

[Muyfa666]

Just let me know when you need me to test anything.

So far, it does not seem like the new daily builds are done yet, so I haven't been able to test them.

[Muyfa666]

I just tried both the daily stable and master... both works fine! How about that?

[criezy]

Great. So at least there is one source of recent builds that you can use
This also rules out the SDL library being the issue since I rolled out the same one on buildbot as I am using for the official release.

[criezy]

And I think we found the issue with the official release. I have updated the 2.1.0 release package, and if you download it again this one will hopefully work for you now.

[Muyfa666]

Confirmed. The latest official 2.1.0, daily master and daily stable all work fine. I guess we can close the book on this topic? Thx a lot fellas!
