Thread: PortMIDI on OSX

Hello Y'all,

I've been looking for a few days now for a starting point on sending some midi messages out of a C++ program using portMIDI library but cant' seem to find any concrete documentation / examples on how to do this on OSX. I was led to the forum by an example which uses the windows.h so it was of little use to my. Anyone got any good hidden resources?

Did you look in the pm_test directory?

Progress!

I tried to run pmtest.c with portmidi.h and porttime.h in my xcode project (like the includes suggest).

PROBLEM: Didn't build the xcode file like the readme suggests.

SOLUTION: I used CMAKE on the "portmidi" folder and then used the option to build using xcode to my application folder. This made me xcode folder which was necessary. Then I could build and run test.c in the "test" folder and can now probe my midi ports!
