[Flac-dev] Compiling 64-bit libFLAC/libFLAC++ on OS X Lion, anyone successful?

[Raymond Edwards]

I have also asked this question on stackoverflow (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8694676/compiling-64-bit-flac-libflac-in-os-x-lion), which you can answer if you're interested in reputation points.

I am very unfamiliar with compiling C/C++ source of this size, and I'm having trouble debugging the issue.  Basically, in the root folder of the FLAC bundle, even if I use the flags specifying 64-bit like so:

CC="gcc -m64" CXX="g++ -m64" ./configure

make still fails with the following output:

[...lots of output with seemingly no errors...]

Any suggestions how to proceed?  I'd like to use the dynamic libraries in my 64-bit Cocoa app.
