With SolveSpace 2.3 on OSX 10.13, it unfortunately doesn't run. It seems to be a library path issue, something to do with libpng. Here's the crash log:

Ok investigating further, the libraries that solvespace depends on seem reasonable:

$ otool -L solvespace 
solvespace:
	/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/Versions/A/OpenGL (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
	@executable_path/libpng.dylib (compatibility version 42.0.0, current version 42.0.0)
	@executable_path/libz.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.5)
	@executable_path/libfreetype.dylib (compatibility version 19.0.0, current version 19.3.0)
	/System/Library/Frameworks/AppKit.framework/Versions/C/AppKit (compatibility version 45.0.0, current version 1404.46.0)
	/usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 120.1.0)
	/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1226.10.1)
	/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/ApplicationServices (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 48.0.0)
	/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Versions/A/CoreFoundation (compatibility version 150.0.0, current version 1258.1.0)
	/System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Versions/C/Foundation (compatibility version 300.0.0, current version 1258.0.0)
	/usr/lib/libobjc.A.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 228.0.0)

And the included libz.dylib does indeed not export _inflateValidate:

$ nm libz.dylib | grep _inflate
0000000000004fcd T _inflate
0000000000003c93 T _inflateBack
0000000000004cf8 T _inflateBackEnd
0000000000003bac T _inflateBackInit_
0000000000006f8f T _inflateCopy
0000000000006c59 T _inflateEnd
0000000000006d93 T _inflateGetHeader
0000000000004e7e T _inflateInit2_
0000000000004f53 T _inflateInit_
0000000000007124 T _inflateMark
0000000000004f6c T _inflatePrime
0000000000004d34 T _inflateReset
0000000000004ded T _inflateReset2
0000000000006caf T _inflateSetDictionary
0000000000006dbf T _inflateSync
0000000000006f63 T _inflateSyncPoint
00000000000070fc T _inflateUndermine

However we can see that ImageIO's libpng tries to load the system libz:

$ otool -L /System/Library/Frameworks/ImageIO.framework/Versions/A/Resources/libPng.dylib
/System/Library/Frameworks/ImageIO.framework/Versions/A/Resources/libPng.dylib:
	/System/Library/Frameworks/ImageIO.framework/Versions/A/Resources/libPng.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
	/usr/lib/libz.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.11)
	/usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 400.9.0)
	/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1252.0.0)

Note the system libz is 1.2.11 (the newest available), and solvespace's is 1.2.5 (very old! from 2012). Looking at the zlib source, inflateValidate() was exposed in 1.2.9, which was the first update after a 3-year gap so this isn't mentioned in the changelog.

So it seems what is happening is: solvespace's libz.dylib gets loaded first. Then the system doesn't try to load /usr/lib/libz.1.dylib because it has already loaded zlib and as far as I know linkers aren't too bright when it comes to library versioning.

The simplest solution is to probably to link with the system zlib. I hacked around it as follows:

cd /Applications/solvespace.app/Contents/MacOS
install_name_tool -change @executable_path/libz.dylib /usr/lib/libz.1.dylib solvespace

And now it runs with no problems.

Thanks for figuring it out!

Thanks for this point. Now SolveSpace is working with Hig Sierra 10.13.4

Duplicate of #310, and fixed there, in a different way.

Easiest fix ever - functions under Mac OSX 10.14.1 (Mojave) - thanks.

confirm It works on macOS 10.14.2 too. Thank you very much!
I think it is convenient to make this change in the app bundle directly.

I just encountered the same issue in a brew cask on OS X Catalina/10.15.1 -- I removed /System/Volumes/Data/Applications/solvespace.app/Contents/MacOS/libz.dylib and solvespace launches without issue
