@rich, you’re using the wrong version of jibx. I got the same problem with 1.2.1 which is the current from the website, try with 1.1.5 or 1.1.6a, or edit the source files to reflect the change in the interface.

I’d imagine the current build is broken, as it worked for me on the 7th of July.

Joys of grabbing from the trunk =)

Howard – sorry, no plans to do builds. I’m inconsistent enough without more jobs to do

Rue – thank you, indeed, if you’re going for the XCode route you will need the latest version.

Nicholas – thanks for that note.

Note that using Apple's GCC 4.2 causes the built JVM to crash. Apple's GCC 4.0.1 is fine, as may be a later GCC built from MacPorts (I haven't tried it).

Hi,

Are you making regular builds available?

Cheers,

Howard.

Hi,

I haven’t come across either DoubleCommand or KeyRemap4Macbook – I’ll take a look immediately. Ukelele is very good, but somewhat complex I fear.

ControllMate I’ve found very good – once you grasp the basics it’s very easy to put things together, and once it’s set up I’ve essentially forgotten about it. And it’s much, much nicer than the Logitech software!

On the Logitech side, I’m using a MX Revolution – 2 years old now, runs like new, and has almost enough buttons to keep me happy.

Cheers,
James

Hi James,

I have the same issue with the German layout of the NEK4000 on a Mac mini.

I will have a look at Ukelele during the next days. However, have you already had a look at DoubleCommand (http://doublecommand.sourceforge.net), KeyRemap4Macbook (www.pqrs.org/tekezo/macosx/keyremap4macbook) or its PC keyboard “hack” (www.pqrs.org/tekezo/macosx/keyremap4macbook/extra.html)?

What are your experiences with ControllerMate so far?

And finally, which Logitech device do you use?

I look forward to your response!

Need GCC 4.2+ to build, so it may be necessary to upgrade to a recent Xcode or just build your own from MacPorts (in which case CC and CXX must be set to the correct binaries as you hopefully gave them a program-suffix).
