Hey everyone:
I'm new to these forums so bear with me.
I'm hoping to become the new maintainer for PHP Extension called AMFEXT. I've been in touch with the original maintainer who has recommended a setup using Visual Studio which I am not particularly excited about.
The basic idea is that I want to set up an IDE on my Mac (Eclipse, XCode, or whatever) and develop in a *nix environment. The problem I'm having is that the amfext source code depends very heavily on the PHP source code for a variety of macros and other stuff and it has a variety of scripts (phpize, configure, etc) that auto-generate the Makefile depending on a variety of conditions within your PHP source directories.
I'm not really sure how to 'import' the existing code (and its makefile) into some IDE on my Mac so that it doesn't go rewriting the Makefile or creating all kinds of directory structures or whatever. I just want to see the *one* C source code file in my IDE with all the friendly code highlighting so I can take advantage of all the IDE goodies look function source locators and one-button compilation and stuff. I'm open to using pretty much any IDE that will allow me to do this.
Can anyone suggest how I might go about this? I've been trying to import with Eclipse and XCode and am not having much luck. NOTE this is not a darwin project but a C project.
