Comment(by mike.c.wilding@…):
I have successfully compiled and linked exempi under Snow Leopard subject
to the following caveat; Quicktime/mov file support is removed due to
Carbon QuickTime framework being 32 bit only. As far as I can gather the
only way to fix this without forcing a 32 bit compile of the library
(which would be useless for linking other 64 bit ports against) would be
to re-write the Mac OS specific parts of the library to use the Cocoa x64
framework equivalents (if possible).
I've nearly completed a port file which will build exempi under Snow
Leopard. However, it remains to be seen if/what ports will be able to link
against it sucessfully with the missing Quicktime/mov support and if the
resulting applications would actually dynamically link against the library
and run without errors or side effects.
