NB: This is the old wxCocoa port, you almost certainly want to read
docs/osx/install.txt for instructions about building wxOSX/Cocoa instead.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
wxCocoa is still a work in progress.
To compile it, you will need Apple's Developer Tools. However, please
note that any work to make it suitable for GNUstep (which will require
a GCC release with Objective-C++) will be much appreciated.
Like most UNIX ports, the standard configure/make method works. You should
be able to build the library as static or shared. I usually build static.
On my system I have the following:
Checked out CVS source is in:
/Users/dfe/devel/wxHEADcommit/wxWidgets
Debug build directory is:
/Users/dfe/devel/wxHEADcommit/BUILD_COCOAd
From the debug build directory:
$ ../wxWidgets/configure --with-cocoa --enable-debug --disable-shared
$ make
$ cd samples/minimal
$ make
$ ./minimal.app/Contents/MacOS/minimal
Like wxMac applications, wxCocoa applications are "bundled". For development
purposes all this means is that an executable named "foo" needs to be
inside a "foo.app/Contents/MacOS" directory. For deployment you will need
an appropriate Info.plist and PkgInfo inside the foo.app/Contents directory.
wxCocoa (and Cocoa in general) has no need for Mac OS resources. It
certainly has no need for resource forks as no Mach-O applications should
_ever_ have resource forks (note: Bakefile violates this right now).
Please see the wxWiki and/or discuss this with wx-users before shipping
any wxCocoa apps if you are new to the OS X platform.
