So I’m a high school student taking an iPhone development class. For my final project I was hoping to use cocos2d to make a game. My teacher has no problem with this, but we cannot access terminal from my student account. However, my teacher does have access to the root account on our computer (running OS X 10.6.8 I think).
My question is: How do we use the computer’s root account to install cocos2d so that my non-administrator account can use it in XCode?
You can always just install Kobold2D which includes Cocos2D and uses a proper installer package. You need to enter the root password once during installation, and the files are placed in the user’s home folder ~/Kobold2D.
