Compiling linuxsampler for Mac OS X with XCode |
2 |
============================================== |
3 |
|

Requirements |
5 |
------------ |
6 |
|
7 |
The XCode project uses autotools build files. On Mac OS 10.4, you need |
8 |
to install pkg-config (available at http://pkgconfig.freedesktop.org/wiki/). |
9 |
|
10 |
If you are to build the CVS snapshot, then you need to do the following |
11 |
steps to make autotools work correctly: |
12 |
|
13 |
$ sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/glibtoolize /usr/local/bin/libtoolize |
14 |
$ sudo cat >/usr/local/bin/aclocal <<'EOF' |
15 |
#!/bin/sh |
16 |
/usr/bin/aclocal -I /usr/local/share/aclocal $@ |
17 |
EOF |
18 |
$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/aclocal |
19 |
|
20 |
Layout of the Directories |
21 |
------------------------- |
22 |
|
23 |
The XCode project for libgig creates a temporary build directory as |
24 |
"$LS/../temp_build/$BUILD_STYLE" (where $LS is the linuxsampler |
25 |
directory, and $BUILD_STYLE is the build style defined in the XCode |
26 |
project). In this directory, the following subdirectories are created |
27 |
and used: |
28 |
$BASELS.build: |
29 |
Intermediate build directory. Symbolic links to the original |
30 |
source files are placed and "configure && make" is performed in |
31 |
this directory. ($BASELS is the basename of the linuxsampler |
32 |
directory.) |
33 |
local: |
34 |
The linuxsampler binary is "installed" in this directory as |
35 |
local/bin/linuxsampler. |
36 |
|
37 |
This layout of the directories is similar to that of the libgig |
38 |
project, on which linuxsampler is dependent. You need to compile |
39 |
libgig first (with the same settings as this linuxsampler XCode |
40 |
project). So it is best to create a common directory, place the |
41 |
libgig and linuxsampler directories in it, and build libgig and |
42 |
linuxsampler in this order. See also "osx/README.mac" in libgig. |
43 |
|
44 |
Universal Binaries |
45 |
------------------ |
46 |
|
47 |
Universal Binaries are not automatically created by the XCode project. |
48 |
However, it is easy to create them by hands as follows: |
49 |
|
50 |
$ cd $LS # Move to the linuxsampler directory |
51 |
$ mkdir -p ../temp_build/UB/bin |
52 |
$ cd ../temp_build/Deployment_ppc |
53 |
$ i=bin/linuxsampler |
54 |
$ lipo -create $i ../Deployment_i386/$i -output ../UB/$i |
55 |
|
56 |
Additional Information |
57 |
---------------------- |
58 |
|
59 |
The XCode project just invokes autoconf_builder.sh with after |
60 |
setting relevant environmental variables. If you are interested |
61 |
(or feel suspicious), please examine autoconf_builder.sh. |
