-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Introduction
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a platform port of XBMC for the Apple iOS operating system. 
The current build system is Xcode 3.x and iOS SDK 4.2/4.3 
There are two ways to build XBMC for Mac.

1) command-line or
2) Xcode.

Generally, Xcode is the easiest as it presents the build system in a GUI environment.
The command-line build is still under development.

XBMC for Mac is composed of a main binary with numerous dynamic libraries and
codecs that support a multitude of music and video formats.

NOTE TO NEW OS X USERS: All lines that are prefixed with the '$' character are
commands that need to be typed into a Terminal window. Note that the '$'
character itself should NOT be typed as part of the command.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Getting the source code
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 $ cd $HOME
 $ git clone git://github.com/xbmc/xbmc.git xbmc
 $ cd xbmc
 $ git submodule update --init addons/skin.touched

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.0 Install Xcode
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Install latest Xcode. You can download it from Apple's site after registration at
(http://developer.apple.com/tools/download). 
The preferred version is Xcode 3.2.5 and iOS SDK 4.2.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.1 Install Cross libs and runtime environment
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 $ cd $HOME/XBMC
 $ sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/bin; sudo cp tools/darwin/depends/gas-preprocessor/gas-preprocessor.pl /usr/local/bin/
 $ cd tools/darwin/depends
 $ ./bootstrap
 $ ./configure --with-darwin=ios
 $ make

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. How to compile
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Both Xcode and Terminal compilation require that build environment be setup
from the step 3.1.

 $ cd $HOME/XBMC
 $ make -C tools/darwin/depends/xbmc
 $ make clean
 $ make xcode_depends

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.1 Using Xcode
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Start XCode and open the XBMC project (XBMC-IOS.xcodeproj or XBMC-ATV2.xcodeproj)
located in $HOME/XBMC.

There are two relevant build targets : Release and Debug. Compile always for device
end not simulator.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.2 Using Terminal (command-line)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 $ cd $HOME/XBMC
 $ xcodebuild -project XBMC-IOS.xcodeproj -target XBMC -configuration Release build ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH=YES ARCHS=armv7 VALID_ARCHS=armv7 IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=4.1 SDKROOT=iphoneos4.2

or

 $ xcodebuild -project XBMC-ATV2.xcodeproj -target XBMC -configuration Release build ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH=YES ARCHS=armv7 VALID_ARCHS=armv7 IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=4.1 SDKROOT=iphoneos4.2


5. Gesture Handling on iPad/iPhone/iPod touch

double finger swipe left -> back
double finger tap -> right mouse
single finger tap -> left mouse
panning, and flicking ->  panning and flicking works for media lists only at the moment ... scrollbars and other stuff are only clickable (single tap), for now
