Mac OS X build instructions
Laszlo Hanyecz (solar@heliacal.net)


Tested on 10.5 and 10.6 intel.  PPC is not supported because it's big-endian.

All of the commands should be executed in Terminal.app.. it's in
/Applications/Utilities

You need to install XCode with all the options checked so that the compiler
and everything is available in /usr not just /Developer
I think it comes on the DVD but you can get the current version from
http://developer.apple.com


1.  Pick a directory to work inside.. something like ~/bitcoin works.  The
structure I use looks like this:
(~ is your home directory)

~/bitcoin
~/bitcoin/trunk         # source code
~/bitcoin/deps          # dependencies.. like libraries and headers needed to compile
~/bitcoin/Bitcoin.app   # the application bundle where you can run the app

Just execute: mkdir ~/bitcoin
This will create the top dir for you..

WARNING: do not use the ~ notation with the configure scripts.. use the full
name of the directory, for example /Users/james/bitcoin/deps for a user named
'james'.  In my examples I am using 'macosuser' so make sure you change that.

2.  Check out the trunk version of the bitcoin code from subversion:

cd ~/bitcoin
svn checkout https://bitcoin.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/bitcoin/trunk

This will make ~/bitcoin/trunk for you with all the files from subversion. 

3.  Get and build the dependencies


Boost
-----

Download from http://www.boost.org/users/download/
I'm assuming it ended up in ~/Downloads..

mkdir ~/bitcoin/deps
cd ~/bitcoin/deps
tar xvjf ~/Downloads/boost_1_42_0.tar.bz2
cd boost_1_42_0
./bootstrap.sh
./bjam architecture=combined address-model=32_64 macosx-version=10.6 macosx-version-min=10.5 link=static runtime-link=static --toolset=darwin --prefix=/Users/macosuser/bitcoin/deps install

This part takes a while.. use your judgement and fix it if something doesn't
build for some reason.

Change the prefix to whatever your directory is (my username in this example
is macosuser).  I'm also running on 10.6 so i have macosx-version=10.6  change
to 10.5 if you're using leopard.

This is what my output looked like at the end:
...failed updating 2 targets...
...skipped 144 targets...
...updated 8074 targets...


OpenSSL
-------

Download from http://www.openssl.org/source/

We would like to build this as a 32 bit/64 bit library so we actually build it
2 times and join it together here..  If you downloaded with safari it already
uncompressed it so it will just be a tar not a tar.gz

cd ~/bitcoin/deps
tar xvf ~/Downloads/openssl-1.0.0.tar
mv openssl-1.0.0 openssl-1.0.0-i386
tar xvf ~/Downloads/openssl-1.0.0.tar
mv openssl-1.0.0 openssl-1.0.0-x86_64
# build i386 (32 bit intel) binary
cd openssl-1.0.0-i386
./Configure --prefix=/Users/macosuser/bitcoin/deps --openssldir=/Users/macosuser/deps/openssl darwin-i386-cc && make
make install # only do this on one of the architectures, to install the headers
cd ..
# build x86_64 (64 bit intel) binary
cd openssl-1.0.0-x86_64
./Configure --prefix=/Users/macosuser/bitcoin/deps --openssldir=/Users/macosuser/deps/openssl darwin64-x86_64-cc && make
cd ..

# combine the libs
cd ~/bitcoin/deps
lipo -arch i386 openssl-1.0.0-i386/libcrypto.a -arch x86_64 openssl-1.0.0-x86_64/libcrypto.a -o lib/libcrypto.a -create
lipo -arch i386 openssl-1.0.0-i386/libssl.a -arch x86_64 openssl-1.0.0-x86_64/libssl.a -o lib/libssl.a -create

Verify your binaries

file lib/libcrypto.a

output should look like this:

ib/libcrypto.a: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
lib/libcrypto.a (for architecture i386):	current ar archive random library
lib/libcrypto.a (for architecture x86_64):	current ar archive random library


Berkeley DB
-----------

Download from http://freshmeat.net/projects/berkeleydb/

cd ~/bitcoin/deps
tar xvf ~/Downloads/db-4.8.26.tar
cd db-4.8.26/build_unix
../dist/configure --prefix=/Users/macosuser/bitcoin/deps --enable-cxx && make && make install


wxWidgets
---------

This is the big one..

Check it out from svn

cd ~/bitcoin/deps
svn checkout http://svn.wxwidgets.org/svn/wx/wxWidgets/trunk wxWidgets-trunk

This will make a wxWidgets-trunk directory in deps.

Use this script snippet, change your prefix to whatever your dir is:

PREFIX=~/bitcoin/deps
SRCDIR="$PREFIX/wxWidgets-trunk"
BUILDDIR="$SRCDIR/macbuild"

cd "$PREFIX" &&
#svn checkout http://svn.wxwidgets.org/svn/wx/wxWidgets/trunk wxWidgets-trunk &&
cd "$SRCDIR" &&

[ -f include/wx/hashmap.h.orig ] || cp include/wx/hashmap.h include/wx/hashmap.h.orig &&
sed 's/if wxUSE_STL/if 0 \&\& wxUSE_STL/g' < include/wx/hashmap.h.orig > include/wx/hashmap.h &&

[ -f include/wx/hashset.h.orig ] || cp include/wx/hashset.h include/wx/hashset.h.orig &&
sed 's/if wxUSE_STL/if 0 \&\& wxUSE_STL/g' < include/wx/hashset.h.orig > include/wx/hashset.h &&



rm -vrf "$BUILDDIR" &&
mkdir "$BUILDDIR" &&
cd "$BUILDDIR" &&

../configure --prefix="$PREFIX" \
--with-osx_cocoa \
--disable-shared \
--disable-debug_flag \
--with-macosx-version-min=10.5 \
--enable-stl \
--enable-utf8 \
--enable-universal_binary \
--with-libjpeg=builtin \
--with-libpng=builtin \
--with-regex=builtin \
--with-libtiff=builtin \
--with-zlib=builtin \
--with-expat=builtin \
--with-macosx-sdk=/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk &&


find . -name Makefile | 
while read i; do 
  echo $i; 
  sed 's/-arch i386/-arch i386 -arch x86_64/g' < "$i" > "$i".new && 
  mv "$i" "$i".old && 
  mv "$i".new "$i"; 
done



make && 
make install



Now you should be able to build bitcoin

cd ~/bitcoin/trunk
make -f makefile.osx bitcoin

Before you can run it, you need to create an application bundle for Mac OS.
Create the directories in terminal using mkdir and copy the files into place.
They are available at http://heliacal.net/~solar/bitcoin/mac-build/
You need the Info.plist and the .ins file.  The Contents/MacOS/bitcoin file is
the output of the build.
Your directory structure should look like this:

Bitcoin.app
Bitcoin.app/Contents
Bitcoin.app/Contents/Info.plist
Bitcoin.app/Contents/MacOS
Bitcoin.app/Contents/MacOS/bitcoin
Bitcoin.app/Contents/Resources
Bitcoin.app/Contents/Resources/BitcoinAppIcon.icns

To run it you can just click the Bitcoin.app in Finder, or just do open
~/bitcoin/Bitcoin.app
If you want to run it with arguments you can just run it without backgrounding
by specifying the full name in terminal:
~/bitcoin/Bitcoin.app/Contents/MacOS/bitcoin -addnode=192.75.207.66
