5. MacOS X: building using frameworks and Cmake
===============================================
In this approach I will try to avoid as much as possible building dependencies
from source and rather use frameworks wherever possible.
The base system here is Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger). Included are a few notes
for building on Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) and 10.6 (Snow Leopard).
The base system here is Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), with a single architecture build.
Included are a few notes for building on Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) and 10.6 (Snow Leopard).
Make sure to read each section completely before typing the first command you see.
Snow Leopard note: A cmake/qt/sip bug currently exists where a 32-bit
cmake build fails to provide python bindings. This means that python plugin support
is currently lacking for 32-bit builds using cmake in Snow Leopard. See the Xcode
build method to if you require python support.
General note on Terminal usage: When I say "cd" to a folder in a Terminal,
it means type "cd " (without the quotes, make sure to type a space after) and
then type the path to said folder, then <return>. A simple way to do this without having to know
and type the full path is, after type the "cd " part, drag the folder (use the icon
in its window title bar, or drag a folder from within a window) from the Desktop
to the Terminal, then tap <return>.
Parallel Compilation: On multiprocessor/multicore Macs, it's possible to speed
up compilation, but it's not automatic. Whenever you type "make" (but NOT "make install"),
instead type:
5.1. Install Xcode
==================
I recommend to get the latest Xcode dmg from the Apple XDC Web site
(http:/developer.apple.com). The Mac system install disks come with a copy of
Xcode, but it's likely out of date.
Install Xcode after the ~1gb download is complete.
/!\ Note: It may be that you need to create some symlinks after installing
Xcode (in particular if you are using Xcode 2.5 on Tiger):
make -j [n]
cd /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/usr/
sudo mv local/ local_
sudo ln -s /usr/local/ local
Replace [n] with the number of cores and/or processors your Mac has. On recent
models with hyperthreading processors this can be double the physical count of
processors and cores.
ie: Mac Pro "8 Core" model (2 quad core processors) = 8
ie: Macbook Pro i5 (hyperthreading) = 2 cores X 2 = 4

5.7. Configure the build
5.6. Configure the build
========================
There are 2 different methods to build QGIS: the traditional CMake method,
and the new Xcode project (starting with QGIS 1.1). The Xcode project has
additional bundling steps, though some optional QGIS features must be explicitly
stated in a user configuration file. The CMake build handles optional features,
and some bundling steps are available with scripts in the mac directory.
5.7.1. Configure the CMake build
================================
CMake supports out of source build so we will create a 'build' dir for the
build process. OS X uses ${HOME}/Applications as a standard user app folder (it gives it the system app folder icon).
If you have the correct permissions you may want to build
straight into your /Applications folder. The instructions below assume you are
building into a pre-existing ${HOME}/Applications directory ...
building into a pre-existing ${HOME}/Applications directory.
In a Terminal cd to the qgis source folder previously downloaded, then:
cd qgis
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Applications -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
To use the application build of GRASS on OSX, you can optionally use the
following cmake invocation (minimum GRASS 6.3 required, substitute the GRASS
version as required):
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Applications -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D GRASS_INCLUDE_DIR=/Applications/GRASS-6.4.app/Contents/MacOS/include \
-D GRASS_PREFIX=/Applications/GRASS-6.4.app/Contents/MacOS \
-D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=MinSizeRel -D WITH_INTERNAL_SPATIALITE=FALSE \
..
This will automatically find and use the previously installed frameworks, and the GRASS
application if installed.
Or, to use a Unix-style build of GRASS, use the following cmake invocation
(minimum GRASS version as stated in the Qgis requirements, substitute the GRASS
path and version as required):
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Applications -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D GRASS_INCLUDE_DIR=/user/local/grass-6.4.0/include \
-D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=MinSizeRel -D WITH_INTERNAL_SPATIALITE=FALSE \
-D GRASS_PREFIX=/user/local/grass-6.4.0 \
..
Leopard note: To find the custom install of SIP on Leopard, add
'-D SIP_BINARY_PATH=/usr/local/bin/sip' to the cmake commands above,
before the '..' at the end, ie:
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Applications -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D SIP_BINARY_PATH=/usr/local/bin/sip \
..
Snow Leopard note: To handle the appropriate version of Qt (32-bit or 64-bit), you will need to invoke cmake based on which version of Qt you installed. Also, SIP/PyQt detection will fail for 32bit because Python runs 64bit.
For 32-bit Qt (Carbon) with GRASS-6.4, create a 32bit python script and add arch flags to the configuration:

For 64-bit Qt (Cocoa) with GRASS-6.4:
Bundling note: Older Qt versions may have problems with some Qt plugins and Qgis.
The way to handle this is bundle Qt inside the Qgis application. You can do this now
or wait to see if there are immediate crahses when running Qgis. It's also a good
idea to bundle Qt if you need to copy Qgis to other Macs (where you would have to
install Xcode just so Qt would install!).
To bundle Qt, add the following line before the last line in the above cmake configurations:
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Applications -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D SIP_BINARY_PATH=/usr/local/bin/sip \
-D CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-arch x86_64" -D CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=x86_64 \

-D GRASS_PREFIX=/Applications/GRASS-6.4.app/Contents/MacOS \
..
-D QGIS_MACAPP_BUNDLE=1 \
5.7.2. Configure the Xcode build
================================
In the mac/xcode folder in the source, duplicate the 'qgis_user-template.xcconfig'
file and name it 'qgis_user.xcconfig'. A default build will use the KyngChaos
frameworks, Postgres, GRASS 6.4, the python.org Python 2.5 (for Tiger)
or the system Python (for Leopard and Snow Leopard) and extra dependencies
as described above, and compile for the current OSX architecture and version, so no
extra configuration is necessary.
See the mac/xcode/readme.rtf for details, if you need to customize the build.
The default build will also bundle the Qt frameworks, Postgres library, and
other dependency libraries to create a self-contained package. The KyngChaos
frameworks and GRASS application are not bundled.

==========================
Open the Xcode project file in the mac/xcode directory. Select 'Release' build
configuration and select the 'Full Qgis' target, then build. If you use ccache,
there have been compilation problems reported, so it is suggested that you disable
ccache support.
Alternatively, from within the mac/xcode directory, build with the command:
xcodebuild
The Qgis application will be found in the 'build/$SDKSYS/Release' folder
in the xcode folder, where $SDKSYS is the system you configured for in your
qgis_user.xcconfig. Copy this to whereever you like.

and the new Xcode project (starting with QGIS 1.1). The Xcode project has
additional bundling steps, though some optional QGIS features must be explicitly
stated in a user configuration file. The CMake build handles optional features,
and some bundling steps are available with scripts in the mac directory.
=== Configure the CMake build ===
CMake supports out of source build so we will create a 'build' dir for the
build process. OS X uses ${HOME}/Applications as a standard user app folder (it gives it the system app folder icon).
If you have the correct permissions you may want to build
straight into your /Applications folder. The instructions below assume you are
building into a pre-existing ${HOME}/Applications directory ...
building into a pre-existing ${HOME}/Applications directory.
In a Terminal cd to the qgis source folder previously downloaded, then:
```
cd qgis
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Applications -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
```
To use the application build of GRASS on OSX, you can optionally use the
following cmake invocation (minimum GRASS 6.3 required, substitute the GRASS
version as required):
```
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Applications -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D GRASS_INCLUDE_DIR=/Applications/GRASS-6.4.app/Contents/MacOS/include \
-D GRASS_PREFIX=/Applications/GRASS-6.4.app/Contents/MacOS \
-D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=MinSizeRel -D WITH_INTERNAL_SPATIALITE=FALSE \
..
```
This will automatically find and use the previously installed frameworks, and the GRASS
application if installed.
Or, to use a Unix-style build of GRASS, use the following cmake invocation
(minimum GRASS version as stated in the Qgis requirements, substitute the GRASS
path and version as required):
```
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Applications -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D GRASS_INCLUDE_DIR=/user/local/grass-6.4.0/include \
-D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=MinSizeRel -D WITH_INTERNAL_SPATIALITE=FALSE \
-D GRASS_PREFIX=/user/local/grass-6.4.0 \
..
```
__Leopard note:__ To find the custom install of SIP on Leopard, add
'-D SIP_BINARY_PATH=/usr/local/bin/sip' to the cmake commands above,
before the '..' at the end, ie:
```
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Applications -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D SIP_BINARY_PATH=/usr/local/bin/sip \
..
```
__Snow Leopard note:__ To handle the appropriate version of Qt (32-bit or 64-bit), you will need to invoke cmake based on which version of Qt you installed. Also, SIP/PyQt detection will fail for 32bit because Python runs 64bit.
For 32-bit Qt (Carbon) with GRASS-6.4, create a 32bit python script and add arch flags to the configuration:

```
For 64-bit Qt (Cocoa) with GRASS-6.4:
__Bundling note:__ Older Qt versions may have problems with some Qt plugins and Qgis.
The way to handle this is bundle Qt inside the Qgis application. You can do this now
or wait to see if there are immediate crahses when running Qgis. It's also a good
idea to bundle Qt if you need to copy Qgis to other Macs (where you would have to
install Xcode just so Qt would install!).
To bundle Qt, add the following line before the last line in the above cmake configurations:
```
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Applications -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D SIP_BINARY_PATH=/usr/local/bin/sip \
-D CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-arch x86_64" -D CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=x86_64 \
-D GRASS_INCLUDE_DIR=/Applications/GRASS-6.4.app/Contents/MacOS/include \
-D GRASS_PREFIX=/Applications/GRASS-6.4.app/Contents/MacOS \
..
-D QGIS_MACAPP_BUNDLE=1 \
```
=== Configure the Xcode build ===
In the mac/xcode folder in the source, duplicate the 'qgis_user-template.xcconfig'
file and name it 'qgis_user.xcconfig'. A default build will use the KyngChaos
frameworks, Postgres, GRASS 6.4, the python.org Python 2.5 (for Tiger)
or the system Python (for Leopard and Snow Leopard) and extra dependencies
as described above, and compile for the current OSX architecture and version, so no
extra configuration is necessary.
See the mac/xcode/readme.rtf for details, if you need to customize the build.
The default build will also bundle the Qt frameworks, Postgres library, and
other dependency libraries to create a self-contained package. The KyngChaos
frameworks and GRASS application are not bundled.

Now we can start the build process (remember the parallel compilation note at
the beginning, this is a good place to use it, if you can):

make install
```
or, for a Unix-style build
or, for a /Applications build:
```
sudo make install
```
=== Building with Xcode ===
Open the Xcode project file in the mac/xcode directory. Select 'Release' build
configuration and select the 'Full Qgis' target, then build. If you use ccache,
there have been compilation problems reported, so it is suggested that you disable
ccache support.
Alternatively, from within the mac/xcode directory, build with the command:
```
xcodebuild
```
The Qgis application will be found in the 'build/$SDKSYS/Release' folder
in the xcode folder, where $SDKSYS is the system you configured for in your
qgis_user.xcconfig. Copy this to whereever you like.
== Running and packaging ==
To run QGIS you need to at the minimum copy the dlls from c:\dev\cpp\qgislibs-release\bin
into the c:\program files\qgisX.X.X directory.
