# Joy1 for Mac OS-X

## xml_pages — 2002-06-18 03:52:12

    Hello, all,

    I downloaded and compiled the joy sources for Mac OS-X.  The

    only trouble was with the gc (Boehm's, correct?): it didn't

    recognize Mac OS-X.  This may be because support was added

    for a more recent version of the gc than available with Joy?  The

    gc works fine on my x86-Solaris box.

    Sincerely,

    Doug Auclair

     It is indeed Boehm's.  If you wouldn't mind, please snarf

    http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Hans_Boehm/gc/gc_source/gc6.0.tar.gz

    and replace the gc instance in the Joy tree, and see if it works.

    AdvTHANKSance.
