Interesting - it seems the intel build of ResMerger calls the
resource flippers or at least checks resource sizes. Does it do this
with custom resource types? It won't have access to any custom
flippers. Hmm.
Sounds like a good bug report for bugreporter.apple.com.
I just spend a few hours finding out that ResMerger behaves
differently on PPC than on i386, more specifically it does give
errors on Intel that it does not on PowerPC:
One of our resources fails when building on Intel with this error:
### /Developer/Tools/ResMerger ERROR:
errCoreEndianDataTooShortForFormat (resType 'WIND' ID 5)
Building the same project on PPC does not throw any errors
whatsoever. The resulting app will run fine on PPC Macs, but fail
the same error message on Intel.
I could find a post in the mailing list archives where this is
being explained with the byte swapping mechanism: http://
lists.apple.com/archives/xcode-users/2006/Sep/msg00344.html
Is there any way to make the PPC ResMerger complain about that
error too? Our main build machine is a PowerMac G5, and it would be
very beneficial if it could detect such errors.
Thanks,
Stefan
