Apple, in their infinite wisdom, +has decided not to ship a compiler and tools to build software. So first of all +you need to download and install 'Command Line Tools for XCode'. Then, to +compile the bare minimum app under OSX requires libsdl and Qt; however, these +must be made statically and installed "the unix way". What that means is you +have to download and unpack the source directories, then make and install them +from the terminal. For libsdl, this is as simple as doing: + +./configure +make +sudo make install + +libsdl makes both static *and* shared libs and installs both. Making Qt takes a +bit longer (timewise), but requires not much user intervention to get things +going. Basically, you do: + +./configure -static -no-webkit -no-qt3support -no-framework -no-exceptions -nomake examples -nomake demos +make +sudo make install + +Be forewarned that it will use around 20 GB of disk space to build, and another +20 GB for the install! Once libsdl and Qt have been made and installed, you can +now go into the folder where the Virtual Jaguar source is and do: + +make + +Assuming all went well, you should now have a nice shiny new virtualjaguar.app +in that folder. Depending on how old your copy of OSX is, you might have to +copy a qt_menu.nib into the app bundle like so: + +cp -r ~/location-where-you-built-qt/src/gui/mac/qt_menu.nib virtualjaguar.app/Contents/Resources/ + +Have fun!
