ubuntu - fatal error: mach-o/dyld.h: No such file or directory -

i'm trying compile src on ubuntu 14: https://github.com/bohdan-khomtchouk/heatmapgenerator/blob/master/heatmapgenerator2_macintosh_osx.cxx.

to compile source code, do: fltk-config --use-images --use-gl --compile heatmapgenerator2_macintosh_osx.cxx

however, retrieve following error:

heatmapgenerator2_macintosh_osx.cxx:52:25: fatal error: mach-o/dyld.h:  no such file or directory   #include <mach-o/dyld.h>                           ^ compilation terminated. 

i've looked http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1623945 didn't solve issue.

is #include <mach-o/dyld.h> not valid preprocessor directive in ubuntu? there seems little written on internet. perhaps apple specific library might not included in ubuntu?

any suggestions on how bypass error , generate binary executable file appreciated.

edit:

when comment out #include <mach-o/dyld.h> preprocessor directive, following error:

heatmapgenerator_macintosh_osx.cxx:568:13: error: use of undeclared identifier       '_nsgetexecutablepath'         if (_nsgetexecutablepath(path, &size) == 0) 

is there way bypass error without using preprocessor directive? _nsgetexecutablepath used once in src, perhaps there exists alternative...

that source code won't compile under linux it's designed use osx's dylib (dynamic loader) rather linux's dynamic loader.

possible solutions:

• "port" source code osx linux.
• use osx compile file.
