Hello all,
I am trying to port a text-to-speech engine (ViaVoice by IBM) from
Linux to Mac OS X. I am given an libibmeci.so file, and try to
compile/make a small sample program (that I got to correctly link and
work on the Linux system) and get the following error:
ld: /opt/IBM/ibmtts/lib/libibmeci.so bad magic number (not a Mach-O
file)
I am assuming that this is because the shared-object library (the .so
file) is in ELF format where as OS X expects shared object libraries to
be in Mach-O format (dylib?).
I am wondering what I can do. I am only given the .so file in Linux
format, and don't have the source to recompile it on OS X as a dylib.
Is there anything I can do to convert this .so to a .dylib? Or is this
something that IBM would have to recompile/support specifically for OS
X. Also, I am trying to static linking at compile time, but possibly
could look at performing dynamic loading at runtime if that would get
this to work.
- Matt
P.S. - I've CCd the speech-dev list, in case anyone out there has had
success/failure porting ViaVoice 6.7 onto OS X.
