MacOS development
Here are some notes about running navit under MacOS. This is a draft, feel free to improve it.
Contents
What you will need
You need Xcode Tools and MacPorts in order to install navit.
MacPorts developers suggest to install Xcode Tools from http://developer.apple.com/tools/xcode/ and not from the Mac OSX install disk.
Make sure you don't have fink installed on your system, it can confuse MacPorts package building and installation.
GTK Gui
You should only need gtk2 and glib2 via macPorts
SDL Gui
Untested yet.
Installation instruction
Download Xcode Tools from http://developer.apple.com/tools/xcode/ and install it with X11 SDK
Download and Install MacPorts from http://www.macports.org/, or update your version
sudo port -d selfupdate
Open up a terminal
make sure your PATH variables has /opt/local/bin and /opt/local/sbin in it:
echo $PATH
Install automake, wget, gpsd (if you want gps support), gtk2 and glib2 (for gkt GUI) with
sudo port install automake wget gpsd gtk2 glib2
Download navit or checkout it from CVS
Edit configure.in and add
-l/opt/local/include
to the CFLAGS variable (note that the variables occurs 2 times in the file)
If you want to install navit along the MacPorts packages, you need to use the /opt/local directory as prefix:
./autogen.sh && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local
change
$NAVIT_LIBDIR...
path in navit.xml with
/opt/local/lib/navit/gui/libgui_gtk.dylib
Create the pidof program:
nano pidof
type this script:
#!/bin/sh ps axc|awk "{if (\$5==\"$1\") print \$1}";
save and exit
chmod 755 pidof sudo mv pidof /bin
Something went wrong?
Libtool error :
If you try to compile navit-0.0.1, you might get the following bug (which is fixed in cvs).
/usr/bin/libtool: internal link edit command failed make[4]: *** [libdata_mg.la] Error 1 make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
The fix is in debug.h to replace
int debug_level;
with
extern int debug_level;
This should be fixed now in CVS.
Malloc error :
param.c:3:20: error: malloc.h: No such file or directory param.c: In function 'param_add_string': param.c:10: warning: implicit declaration of function 'malloc' param.c:10: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'malloc'
There is no malloc.h in OS X. All the defs are in stdlib.h. If you want you could make a softlink /opt/local/inlcude/malloc.h to /usr/include/stdlib.h, or just comment the relevants include <malloc.h>
Both will work. The symlink is maybe easier for now.
ln -s /usr/include/stdlib.h /opt/local/include/malloc.h
We'll add a platform-test soon to fix it.
