20 2.1 Development Tools
21 ----------------------
22
23 Apple's Xcode Developer's Tool must be installed to build from source code.
24
25 http://developer.apple.com/technologies/xcode.html
26
27 A Fortran compiler is also required. AT&T Research provides versions of
28 gfortran which have been patched to work with recent versions of Xcode.

32 2.2 Dependencies
33 ----------------
34
35 There are additional build dependencies and run-time dependencies which
36 must be met. Using a package management system such as Fink or MacPorts
37 is the easiest way to meet these requirements.

86 2.3 Building With Dependencies Satisfied by Fink
87 ------------------------------------------------
88
89 After installing each of the dependencies, the sources are compiled by
90 setting the proper environment variables and then following the standard build
91 sequence. The following is an example set of variables for a 32-bit processor
92 compling with gcc-4.2.
93
94 export FINK_PREFIX="/sw"
95 export PREFIX="/usr/local/bin"
96
97 export OPTFLAGS="-O0 -g"
98 export LDFLAGS="-L$FINK_PREFIX/lib -L/usr/lib -m32"
99 export CFLAGS="-I$FINK_PREFIX/include $OPTFLAGS -m32"
100 export CXXFLAGS=$CFLAGS
101 export CPPFLAGS=$CXXFLAGS
102 export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I$FINK_PREFIX/share/aclocal"
103 export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$FINK_PREFIX/lib/pkgconfig"
104 export PATH="$FINK_PREFIX/var/lib/fink/path-prefix-10.6/:$PATH"
105 export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.5

118 export CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS -D_THREAD_SAFE -D_REENTRANT"
