[vlc-devel] [VLCKit - tvOS] libVLC build broken

[Stefan Schmidt-Bilkenroth]

I more or less rebuild VLCKit including libVLC from scratch every few days.
I am using the build script which is part of VLCKit.

Since yesterday the build is breaking during libVLC build with error message

6 warnings and 1 error generated.

This is caused while building contrib gsm. Looks like either stdlib.h isn't included or the alternating declaration of memcpy does not work, whatever is happening during the build. Maybe some config step is giving incorrect results.

Can you please check?

PS: copy of what I have posted in the forum. Just posting the full error here. I can’t see the command line with the options passed to clang for building.
