Examples won't compile on macOS because it doesn't have pkg-config by default. #916

Description

@ordnl

In examples/Makefile, GLFW3 is linked through pkg-config

GLFW3 := $(shell pkg-config --libs glfw3)

Unfortunately macOS does not have pkg-config by default, so GLFW3 is not linked, causing a compilation error.

This can be fixed by changing:

LIBS := $(GLFW3) -framework OpenGL -framework Cocoa -framework IOKit -framework CoreVideo -lm -lGLEW -L/usr/local/lib

to:

LIBS := -lglfw -framework OpenGL -framework Cocoa -framework IOKit -framework CoreVideo -lm -lGLEW -L/usr/local/lib

This happened on my macOS High Sierra (10.13.6)
