Against The Moon Bundle Mac OS
Hey there, it's time to do a review of Against The Moon from Code Heretic with your buddy Dan. If you like 2D sci-fi turn-based strategy game be sure to chec. To the Moon is an adventure game developed and published by Freebird Games. It was originally released for Microsoft Windows in November 2011, with ports later being released for Mac OS X, Linux, Android, iOS and Nintendo Switch. The story follows two doctors who offer to fulfill a dying man's last wish using artificial memories. Intego’s Mac Premium Bundle X9 offers a ton of features and services. The company recently released more robust Windows malware detection for Macs, as well as a dedicated antivirus for Windows PCs. The real question is whether you need a third-party antivirus on your Mac. That’s a tough one. In the past, we (and others) have recommended against antivirus programs for Mac OS X. But crapware on Mac OS X is becoming worse and worse. On the other hand, most antimalware programs don’t block this horrific adware anyway.

Deploying Applications on Mac OS X |
by Trenton Schulz |
Update: The information in this article applies to Qt 3.See the Qt Reference Documentation for the latest information.
Mac OS X handles most applications as 'bundles'. A bundle is adirectory structure that groups related files together. Bundles areused for GUI applications, frameworks, and installer packages. Theseare presented to the user as one file in the Finder. When set upcorrectly, bundles make for easy deployment. All one needs to do isto archive the application using some preferred method. Usersthen open the archive and drag the application to wherever theyplease and are ready to go.
The diagram below shows the directory structure of a bundle. Filesare shown in italics; directories are shown in roman.
Deploying an application on Mac OS X does not involve any C++programming. All you need is to build your application in releasemode (the default) and to follow the procedure shown in this article.To illustrate the procedure, we will show how to deploy the demoexample from the Qt distribution. The demo application is fairlysimple, yet it is interesting because it can use SQL driver plugins.
To keep things simple, we will stick to command-line tools hereinstead of using the still rapidly evolving Xcode IDE. The first toolis otool. It gives us information about an executable. We willuse it to find out what type of shared libraries a Qt application isreferencing. You get this by running otool-L on theexecutable. For instance, here's how to obtain the information aboutQt's demo example:
Developers familiar with Unix will notice that this is quite similarto the ldd tool.

The other tool that we will use is called install_name_tool. Thistool allows us to change information about where an application looksfor libraries or what these libraries are called. We will see someexamples of this shortly.
We've touched quite briefly on the issues that arise when makinga Qt application work with a simple drag and dropinstallation. If your installation is more elaborate, you might wantto take a lookat DeveloperTools/Conceptual/SoftwareDistributionfor information about using packages for deployment. You might also want toreadMacOSX/Conceptual/BPBundles,which describes the structure of a bundle. For more information aboutotool and install_name_tool, see the man pages.
