[Therion] Therion on Mac OSX Snow Leopard working

[Christian Sandrini]

Hi

I finally got everything working under Mac OSX Snow Leopard including Loch. The main Problem was to compile Loch as wxWidgets has to be compiled as 32-bit. (unless you find the 64-bit version of some libs needed by wxWidgets)

Follow the documentation on therion's wiki page
http://therion.speleo.sk/wiki/doku.php?id=masox

Make the following changes:

- When installing TeX make sure to use the big MacTeX application. Otherwise you will get some compilation errors when trying to compile the maps.
http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/mac/mactex/MacTeX.mpkg.zip

- Install CMAKE as described in the documentation. I used the following version: 2.8-2
- Install VTK (I used version 5.4) as described but use different configuration for CMakeCache.txt

CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/Applications/VTK_ALL/VTK_Bin
CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES:STRING=i386;x86_64
VTK_USE_COCOA:BOOL=ON
VTK_USE_CARBON:BOOL=OFF
CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET:STRING=10.4

- Edit the Makefile of Loch in /Applications/therion/loch/Makefile as follows. Basically it is the same configuration as described in the documentation apart that I added the "-m32" option to the compiler.  This will compile it as 32-bit
Adjust VTK path if needed. (If you compiled VTK 64-bit only instead of universal build it will print some symbol linking errors)

# PLATFORM MACOSX
  BITTINESS = -m32
  CXX = c++ ${BITTINESS}
  CC = cc ${BITTINESS}
  VTKPATH = /Applications/VTK_All/VTK_Bin
  VTKINCLUDEPATH = $(VTKPATH)/include/vtk-5.4
  VTKLIBPATH = $(VTKPATH)/lib/vtk-5.4
  VTKLIBS = -lvtkHybrid -lvtkImaging -lvtkIO -lvtkGraphics -lvtkFiltering -lvtkCommon -lvtkjpeg -lvtkpng -lvtkzlib -lvtksys -lfreetype -lGLU -lGL
  POBJECTS = getline.o
  CXXPFLAGS = -W -Wall -DLXMACOSX $(shell wx-config --cxxflags) -I$(VTKINCLUDEPATH) -Wno-deprecated -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/X11R6/include/freetype2
  CCPFLAGS = -W -Wall -DLXMACOSX $(shell wx-config --cflags) -I/usr/X11R6/include
  LXLIBDIR = 
  PLIBS = -lz -L/usr/X11R6/lib $(shell wx-config --libs gl) -L$(VTKLIBPATH) $(VTKLIBS)
  POSTMAKE = cp -f ./loch ./loch.app/Contents/MacOS
  STRIPFLAG =
# PLATFORM ENDCONFIG

With a bit of luck everything will run through smoothly.

Hopefully this will help you out!

cheers
Chris
