Here it is. I'm sure it needs a proofreading, as I have had lots of
distractions from work I'm supposed to be doing while putting it
together :-) Johannes, how does it look?
-- sidney
Here are steps I used to build Enigma under MacOS 10.3.9 that already
had X-11 installed (I use OpenOffice, so whatever that needs was there
already), using svn trunk. I can't say for sure if having X-11 installed
made any difference. I mention it in case that is a necessary prerequisite.
1. Very important for building a number of unix projects in 10.3.9 is
to downgrade QuickTime 7.0.4 to version 7.0.1 using
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktime701reinstallerforquicktime704.html
The QuickTime 7.0.4 upgrade was pushed out as part of a 10.3.9
software update. It installs a version of libstdc++ that was built
with a newer version of gcc than the 3.3 that ships with MacOS
10.3.9, resulting in various linker errors when trying to build
many projects ported from unix that used to build fine. The
downgrade fixes that.
The downgrade is not necessary to build in MacOS 10.4.
If you continue to get mysterious linker errors you can also try
reinstalling xcode 1.5. Some people said it restored some files
messed up by a software update. I tried it at one point earlier
before I found out about the QuickTime problem and it didn't by
itself help, so I can't say for sure if it that really is also
necessary.
2. I earlier installed, for some other projects, gettext, freetype,
and libpng, so I can't say for sure if any of the other required
libraries requires one or more of them. If you see errors about
anything like that missing when you try the next steps, download the
source of whichever you need from its project web site, and use
./configure ; make ; sudo make install
3. Download latest versions of autoconf (2.59) and automake
(1.9.6). The versions included in 10.3.9 are too old. I don't know
about the versions that are included with 10.4. Build and installed
them from sources using
./configure ; make ; sudo make install
4. Install binary packages of SDL, SDL-devel, SDL_mixer, SDL_image, and
SDL_ttf, available from http://libsdl.org in the links under
Download. I used SDL 1.2, the current stable build at the time,
downloading http://www.libsdl.org/release/SDL-1.2.9.dmg and
http://www.libsdl.org/release/SDL-devel-1.2.9.pkg.tar.gz and found
the other packages at the Libraries link under Downloads:
http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_mixer
http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_image
http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_ttf
In each case download both the source and the MacOSX binary
package. For this step install the binary packages into the
/Library directory (which is the default).
5. Download the source tarballs (see previous step) of SDL, SDL_mixer,
SDL_image, and SDL_ttf. Unpack them somewhere convenient, then
build and install each of them, starting with SDL.
All of them installed fine using
./configure ; make ; sudo make install
IMPORTANT: If you are using DarwinPorts or Fink, you may want to stick
to using it for the source builds, which means the SDL* static link
libraries will be installed in, for example, /usr/fink instead of
/usr/local/lib.
6. Download and install the xerces-c library. If you are using
DarwinPorts or Fink you may be able to get a binary development
package or at least get a source version from DarwinPort or Fink to
build under that environment. I use neither, so here is what I did:
Download the source tarball of xerces-c from
http://xml.apache.org/dist/xerces-c/stable/
I got version 2.7.0 and unpacked it in /usr/local/src. Change
references to those in the following commands to match your
circumstances:
export XERCESCROOT=/usr/local/src/xerces-c-src_2_7_0
cd /usr/local/src/xerces-c-src_2_7_0/src/xercesc
./configure
make
sudo make install
Then I had to do the following important step, which create a static
link library, as the MacOSX version of the xerces-c 2.7 build does not
do that. Put the following in an executable file in the
$XERCESCROOT/src/xercesc directory, cd to that
directory and run it.
#!/bin/sh
make -n XML_LIB_DIR=$XERCESCROOT/lib/dummy |
grep 'c++ .*\.dylib' |
tr \ \\n |
grep '\.o$' |
( cd ../../obj ; xargs ar rcs $XERCESCROOT/lib/libxerces-c.a )
Then
sudo cp $XERCESCROOT/lib/libxerces-c.a /usr/local/lib/
7. Once all the above are all installed, build a Mac
application bundle from the command line by cd to the root directory of
the Enigma source tree (i.e., the directory above src) and running the
commands:
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
make macapp
The first line is only necessary if you are starting from the svn
sources. If you downloaded a release tarball, it should already have
had autogen.sh run and you can start with ./configure.
The final line builds a Mac OS X application bundle called
Enigma.app and a compressed disk image containing it called
enigma.dmg, both in the etc/ directory under the source tree root.
You should be able to copy the enigma.dmg file to a Mac running
10.3.9 that has not had the various libraries required for building
Enigma installed, open the disk image, and drop the Enigma app into
any disk folder, e.g., Applications, to install Enigma.
I have tested this only by building under 10.3.9 and running on
10.3.9. Someone should update this file once they have tried building
on 10.4 and tested the resulting application on both 10.3.9 and 10.4.
