Mac OS X Compile Guide (2.1)
From WarzoneWiki
NOTE: These are instructions for building Warzone 2.1 on OS X 10.4 (Tiger) and may not work on Leopard, although the steps may be similar.
Contents |
Obtain Xcode
Obtain Xcode (2.4.1 or 2.5 for Tiger) from an OS X installation CD or from the Apple developer website (account required).
Obtain/Build Bison
Download GNU Bison 2.3 or newer as the version shipping with OS X Tiger is old (version 1.28) and does not properly parse the files included in Warzone 2100. Extract the downloaded Bison archive, open Terminal.app, and run the following commands:
cd /bison_src_directory ./configure # Configure the build environment make # Compile the source sudo make install # Install Bison (default directory is /usr/local/bin/).
- Make sure to replace bison_src_directory with the path to the Bison source
If using Xcode 2.4.1
Next modify your PATH environmental variable, if needed, so that Bison 2.3 is used instead of the default OS X Bison. If you installed Bison to the default directory, type:
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
In order to keep this setting across Bash sessions, add this line to the file "~/.profile" (which may not exist). To confirm that Bison 2.3 is in use, type:
bison --version
and look for the string:
bison (GNU Bison) 2.3
If using Xcode 2.5
Xcode 2.5 uses the version of Bison in "/Developer/usr/bin/". To backup the old version of Bison and to create a symlink from Bison 2.3 to the location Xcode will expect Bison, type:
sudo mv /Developer/usr/bin/bison /Developer/usr/bin/bison-1.28 && sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/bison /Developer/usr/bin/bison
(you may need to substitute "/usr/local/bin/bison" with the path to your Bison 2.3 if the default install directory was not used).
Obtain/Build Warzone 2.1 Source
Obtain Warzone 2.1 source from http://wz2100.net/download or from the Warzone SVN repository at http://svn.gna.org/svn/warzone (use either the trunk or branches/2.1). To build Warzone, run:
cd /warzone_src_directory/macosx xcodebuild -project Warzone.xcodeproj -target Warzone -configuration Release
- Make sure to replace warzone_src_directory with the path to the Warzone source
- Replace "-configuration Release" with "-configuration Debug" for the debug version
A prompt on whether or not to accept the repository's SSL certificate will be displayed. Enter 'p' to accept the certificate permanently, 't' to accept the certificate temporarily, or 'd' to reject the certificate (required build data will not be downloaded).
If there are any errors during the build, try to build the code a second time (this sometimes rectifies the problem). The outputted .app file will be "/warzone_src_directory/macosx/build/Release/Warzone.app" (or "/warzone_src_directory/macosx/build/Debug/Warzone.app" if the debug version was built).
If you get the error:
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/X11R6/lib/libfontconfig.1.dylib Referenced from: Warzone.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/QuesoGLC.framework/Versions/A/QuesoGLC Reason: image not found
when starting Warzone from the terminal (see bug #11619), run the following commands:
sudo ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libfontconfig.1.0.dylib /usr/X11R6/lib/libfontconfig.1.dylib sudo ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.3.dylib /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib sudo ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libexpat.0.4.dylib /usr/X11R6/lib/libexpat.0.dylib
Be patient the first time you run Warzone; it may take a minute or two to start up (possibly due to config files, etc. being created?).
