Koda: /* Configure the VLC build */

This is an '''howto''' to compile {{VLC}} on ''Mac OS X'', focused on '''VLC 3.0''' and newer.

= Pre-requisites =

=== Apple Software ===

*You need at least MacOSX '''10.8'''. Any later version is strongly recommended, though.
*'''Developer Tools from Apple''' from http://developer.apple.com/technology/xcode.html You need at least ''Xcode 5''. Note that we need the optional command line tools, which can be installed through the preferences dialog or through the OS X dialog offering their installation.

=== Xcode select ===

You might need to run xcode select to point to your xcode developer directory.

xcrun clang

If this outputs 'Error: No developer directory...', then use xcode-select to select the developer directory within the Xcode package.

something like:

sudo /usr/bin/xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

=== Configure the environment ===

VLC needs to be compiled using Apple's clang compiler in its latest version. To use this compiler, you need to export the respective variables. In a Bourne Shell, type this (if Xcode is installed to its default location; bash is the default shell on OS X):

export CC="xcrun clang"
export CXX="xcrun clang++"
export OBJC="xcrun clang"

If you are using a C-Shell, you need to use the setenv command of course.

= [[GetTheSource|Get the source code]] =

git clone git://git.videolan.org/vlc.git

= Build VLC with a single command =

Setup a build folder:
cd vlc && mkdir build && cd build

And run the build:
../extras/package/macosx/build.sh

Wait and you are finished

You can see more options for this build (change arch or sdk):
../extras/package/macosx/build.sh -h

= Build steps =
Now, if you prefer, you can read the following detailed information on how the build internally works:

== Additional development tools ==

You need development tools, notably all the autotools, to build VLC correctly.

Here is how:
cd extras/tools
./bootstrap && make
cd ../..

'''Important''': set the new PATH.
export PATH=$PWD/extras/tools/build/bin:$PATH

== Prepare [[Contrib Status|3rd party libraries]] ==

Before compiling VLC, you need lots of other libraries. Here is how to get them:

First, set the correct SDK version for the 3rd party libraries, usually your current OS X Version:

export OSX_VERSION=10.7

cd contrib
mkdir -p contrib-osx && cd contrib-osx
../bootstrap --host=x86_64-apple-darwin11 --build=x86_64-apple-darwin11

=== Prebuilt libraries (recommended) ===

If you want to download a prebuilt package of all the needed libraries.

make prebuilt

Now you can just skip to the [[OSXCompile#Update_PATH|Update PATH]] section.

=== Build your own libraries (not for the faint-hearted) ===

If you want to build contribs from source, you first need to make gettext, which is needed for some other contrib libraries to build:

make -j4 .gettext

Then fetch contrib sources:

make fetch

and build them with:

make -j4

If you had no errors, the 3rd party libraries (contrib) are built correctly and you can proceed to the next step.

=== Update PATH ===

First we go back to the source directory:

cd ../..

And now we still need to add the contribs to our path, so they can be found:

export PATH=$PWD/contrib/x86_64-apple-darwin11/bin:$PATH

== Bootstrap VLC ==

This will create the configure script:

./bootstrap

== Configure the VLC build ==

Create a build folder:

mkdir -p build && cd build

To list the different options of configure:

../extras/package/macosx/configure.sh --help

To build a binary with the previously installed x86_64-apple-darwin11 contrib:

../extras/package/macosx/configure.sh --enable-debug --host=x86_64-apple-darwin11 --build=x86_64-apple-darwin11

By default it will not use the installed SDK, like Xcode does, but use System Root. This means that if you built contribs on your own, the configure script might behave unexpectedly, for example enabling functions which are not present in a given operating system version. To work around this and build against the latest installed SDK, you can use:

--with-macosx-sdk=`xcrun --show-sdk-path`

If you want to use a different SDK, you can list all installed SDKs with <code>xcodebuild -showsdks</code> and to get the path for it, you can use the following command <code>xcodebuild -version <SDK Flag from before> Path</code>. 
For example: <code>xcodebuild -version -sdk macosx10.11 Path</code>

== Build VLC ==

Just do:
make -j4

and wait...

if you want to avoid recompiling VLC.app every time during development use

make VLC-dev.app

== Package VLC Application for Mac ==

If you want a disk-image:

make package-macosx

== Sign VLC Application for Mac ==

If you want to sign your application with a certificate, for example for Gatekeeper, you need to run:

extras/package/macosx/codesign.sh -i "certificate name"

= What's wrong: troubleshooting =

== 3rd party packagers and PATH ==

'''Pay careful attention to remove any reference to 3rd party package managersfrom your environment.''' This is important to avoid conflicts between your package manager (homebrew, fink, macports...) and the contrib package manager we use to build our contrib.

It shouldn't be necessary, but it can happen.

'''git must still be accessible though!'''

unset PKG_CONFIG_PATH
unset PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR
export PATH=$PWD/build/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin
