Manually memory-manage in the XPC implementation 
- Input events are fed and processed in two different threads. We want
  to be sure that our NSStrings are released only after the processing
  of the event has been done.

nvox

NeoVim for OS X

About

nvox is a toy project, meaning e.g. no tests whatsoever, for me to:

  • play around with NeoVim,
  • play around with the XPC-architecture and to find out whether this is a viable choice for an OSX-NeoVim-GUI-app and
  • play around with Swift (and RxSwift).

It could very well be that nothing useful comes out of it.

How to Build

First install homebrew, then:

xcode-select --install # install the Xcode command line tools
brew install carthage # install Carthage for dependency management
brew install libtool automake cmake pkg-config gettext ninja # install libs and tools for neovim

carthage update --platform osx

git submodule update --init
cd neovim
ln -s ../NeoVimXpc/local.mk .
make libnvim # optional, the nvox target in Xcode also does this

Run the nvox-target in Xcode.

Libraries for NeoVim

  • The library libiconv is linked by the linker flag -liconv. The version bundled with OSX will be linked.
  • The library libintl should be installed by homebrew and is statically linked by explicitly using the linker flag /usr/local/opt/gettext/lib/libintl.a.
  • Other libraries used by NeoVim, which are automatically built by building libnvim, are linked by adding them to the Xcode project.
