Apple slightly changed the App bundle mechanism which broke wrapper
scripts that invoke the actual binary. it caused the bundle to always
open a new instance of mpv instead of reusing the currently running one.
just removing the wrapper script would lead to several regressions, so
it was replaced with a symlink to the bundle binary. detection if mpv
was started from the bundle was replaced by comparing the execution name
of the binary, eg the name of the symlink "mpv-bundle". additionally,
because we load a standard config from the Resources folder of the
bundle again, we prevent that config from being loaded if mpv wasn't
started via the bundle. the psn argument has to be removed manually
again.
the ability of loading your standard shell environment has been removed
with the wrapper. a substitution will be added with another commit. as a
side effect this fixes an issues when zsh was used with common NodeJS
configuration scripts.

GNU sed and BSD sed don't share the same options for editing files in-place,
so a workaround is needed.
The most simple way is to use a pure python implementation of applying the
changes.
Move the code that copies the dylib's to the bundle to a new script
(dylib-unhell.py) which is called by osxbundle.py.
dylib-unhell is about 20x faster than the previous implementation. This is
accomplished by removing superflous shell-out operations which are kept track
of using an in memory tree of all the needed dependencies. Moreover the
shell-outs have been further optimized by not requiring a complete shell for
every operation and just using subprocess.call (which is equivalent to Popen).
This commit adds a new build system based on waf. configure and Makefile
are deprecated effective immediately and someday in the future they will be
removed (they are still available by running ./old-configure).
You can find how the choice for waf came to be in `DOCS/waf-buildsystem.rst`.
TL;DR: we couldn't get the same level of abstraction and customization with
other build systems we tried (CMake and autotools).
For guidance on how to build the software now, take a look at README.md
and the cross compilation guide.
CREDITS:
This is a squash of ~250 commits. Some of them are not by me, so here is the
deserved attribution:
- @wm4 contributed some Windows fixes, renamed configure to old-configure
and contributed to the bootstrap script. Also, GNU/Linux testing.
- @lachs0r contributed some Windows fixes and the bootstrap script.
- @Nikoli contributed a lot of testing and discovered many bugs.
- @CrimsonVoid contributed changes to the bootstrap script.
If one of the bundled libraries is pointing to a missing dylib stop the
bundling and exit with an error. This can happen if the user uninstalled a
dependency after he built the binary/libraries.
It looks like that only `install_name_tool -change` must be applied
recursively. This allows to bundle up all our stuff without thinkering with
the Mach-O headerpad size (which could even be impossible for libraries we
don't compile and link ourselves).
Add a make task and python script to create a Mac OS X Application Bundle
to be used when compiling with the --enable-macosx-finder and
--enable-macosx-bundle configure flags.
The main svg icon was created by me and heavily inspired by Apple's iTunes
and AppStore icon designs. We are still looking for something better.
For the audio, movie and subtitles icons I added the main logo to MPlayer OSX
Extended icons.
Use with `make osxbundle` after running configure and make.
