iOS Question Local Mac Compiler

[Yvon Steinthal]

Hello,

Seeing how i can no longer use the remote compiler. I am trying to follow the steps for a local mac compiler using my macbook pro.

JDK8 and XCode 9 is downloaded and installed but once i do the java -jar B4iBuildServer.jar part in the terminal, i have a

"Failed to find xcode path"

Any clues?

Thanks

Y.

Have you ran Xcode 9 at least once?

What is the output of xcode-select -p ?

I dont know if there's a tutorial about setting this up. If there is i will gladly take a look at it. But nevertheless here's my error:

/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools

I'm sorry but I cannot further help you as you ignore my questions...

 

[Yvon Steinthal]

What do you mean?

" /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools" is what i get from entering "xcode-select -p" in the terminal...

and yes i've ran xcode...

Reread my two posts. I asked you twice these questions and only now you answered them.

Im sorry Erel, i didnt have the sufficient info at the time and gave it as i had it.
I do not own the mac myself and the owner wasn't always available.
I should have given you the full information as i had it instead of portions of it.

Please be patient as i have NEVER used a mac before in my life, it is why i use B4i in the first place.

Thank You for your help.

Why don't you use the hosted builder? It will be simpler.

Note that if the Mac is not in the same network then it will be complicated to configure it properly.

With your previous link i figured out the kinks, i just needed to switch the folder and add firebase messaging framework.
It works well now. It will be in the same network starting today.

I am going towards a local mac builder because my app is getting heavier everyday more, and the "crash" on friday gave me an unsuspected day off at work.
In case of it happening again i want a plan B.
