failed to compile XmlRPCEmbedder on Mac OS!

[easior]

I want to build python plugin for CB on Mac OS Yosemite. However, the compile is failed. The following is the error report:

By the way, is there any plan to update your python plugin to wx 3.0?

[spillz]

Not entirely surprised this doesn't work on Mac. The XmlRpc Library that I
am using is pretty old and Apple isn't known for its legacy support. I will
look into a replacement. I am barely using that library anyway.

And yes, I plan to update to wx3.0.

It sounds nice. It would be pretty good if you could improve build systems with GNU autotools.

[spillz]

That's on the todo list too.

I may be a little late, but I resolved this same issue on another application by adding this to the file XmlRpcBase64.h
#include

so that the _IOS_xxxx flags are correctly defined.

Hi Davie. May I ask what exactly did you add to the base64.h file? I am running into the same issue while trying to build xmlrpc.
