One thing I've noticed regarding Kexts

Why the need for an Executable path? Plist Path?

Majority of kexts have Executable as same name as kext.

The path is always the same too, so no need for that.

Common Path Contents/MacOS/

Common Plist Contents/Info.plist

e.g Use Common Path and the kext name as the Executable

Common Plist for the....Plist

 

Bundle Path FTS.kext

Enabled.     Yes

Comment    Why is it so

 

so basically reduce code to 2 or 3 lines.

Hi guys,

 

How do I include the AppleSupportPkg in OpenCorePkg, so it can compile all at once?

 

I did see the ocbuild.config added in the AppleSupportPkg, I assumed I can git clone the pkg into the UDK folder.

 

What's the correct way of doing it?

Can't seems to compile VirtualSMC atm, got like 4 fails due to missing header file

 

Take a look at @Pavo reply: ocbuiilder compile OC + all Lilu plugins at once time. VirtualSMC standalone: just download latest release 1.0.7. If you only want to build VirtualSMC: do you put latest Lilu Debug in VirtualSMC before compling?

Down to 1 fail after I copied Lilu header folder to VirtualSMC :(

 

Problem solved:

I need to copy the Lilu.kext into VirtualSMC folder. Build succeeded! :)  Thanks to Matgen84 and Pavo.

I managed to solve a lot fails by looking at the comments and reading the manual.

 

i have one single fail left that i couldn't find anything about it:

 

OCB: Failed to match a default boot option.

 

EDIT: to be clear, the system does boot and all, is just that line appears before booting and is bothering me.

@STLVNUB Explicitly defining the executable and PLIST paths is done for security and not for technical reasons

Thats all very well, if the user WANTS the added security, most probably want simplicity, you guys making it way harder than it should be
