| − | | |
| − | ''' (2) Use CMake 3.12.2 - it is known to be working and is supported''' (if you want to use CMake already installed on your system, 2.8.12.2 is known to work on Mac OS X 10.9.5)

| |
| − | -->
| |
| − | * XCode (for the SDK libs)
| |
| − | ** After installing XCode, install XCode command line developer tools:
| |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | xcode-select --install
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | * XQuartz - For Mac Os X >= 10.8 ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS_X_Mountain_Lion Mountain Lion]) install XQuartz (http://xquartz.macosforge.org) to get X11 (no longer a default in OS X).
| |
| − | * Qt 4 >= 4.8.5. We recommend you install the following two packages:
| |
| − | ** Download and install [http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/4.8/4.8.6/qt-opensource-mac-4.8.6-1.dmg qt-opensource-mac-4.8.6-1.dmg]
| |
| − | ** Download and install [http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/4.8/4.8.6/qt-opensource-mac-4.8.6-1-debug-libs.dmg qt-opensource-mac-4.8.6-1-debug-libs.dmg]
| |
| − | ** For more details [[Documentation/{{documentation/version}}/Developers/Build_Instructions/Prerequisites/Qt#Mac|here]]
| |
| − | <!--
| |
| − | ** Newer Xcode versions (e.g. 4.3.2) use clang as the default compiler and '''clang is not compatible with ITK version 3'''. You should use ITK version 4 with recent versions of Xcode.
| |
| − | ** Xcode with gcc should ork with either version of ITK.
| |
| − | ** OS X Mountain Lion: In Xcode 4.5 you now need to install command line tools (no longer included by default). Install within Xcode under the Xcode->Preferences->Downloads tab (otherwise git svn will give errors). Then you will need to install XQuartz (http://xquartz.macosforge.org) to get X11 (no longer a default in OS X).
| |
| − | -->
| |
| − | | |
| − | ====Mac OSX 10.11 (El Capitan)====
| |
| − | | |
| − | XCode up to version 7 is known to work for Slicer compilation. XCode 8 breaks things on several levels for now.
| |
| − | Remember to install XCode command line tools (see above) if a reinstall for XCode is needed.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The standard Qt4 installers fail on this version and the 4.8.6 source code won't build. But [http://slicer-devel.65872.n3.nabble.com/incompatible-qt-4-8-6-with-OS-X-El-Capitan-td4035551.html as described on the slicer-devel mailing list] it is possible to install the [https://github.com/Homebrew/formula-patches/blob/master/qt/el-capitan.patch homebrew version of qt4 which patches it to work on El Capitan] (see below).
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Install the '''OS''', '''Xcode''', and '''XQuartz''' (see MacOSX 10.10 above)
| |
| − | * Install '''Qt4''' by running the following two commands:
| |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | brew install qt4
| |
| − | xcode-select --install
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | * TCL does not build correctly on El Capitan as of 2015-12-03, so when building Slicer turn `Slicer_USE_PYTHONQT_WITH_TCL` off.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== Mac OSX 10.12 (Sierra) ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | Similar to 10.11 (El Capitan), there are new issues with Qt4 (caused by Phonon).
| |
| − | The GitHub user Cartr [https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/5216 offered a patch to the brew team], and even though it was not integrated (the homebrew team decided to stop patching their recipe to encourage people to use Qt5), he [https://github.com/cartr/homebrew-qt4 turned his formula into a tap] that can be installed (see below).
| |
| − | | |
| − | Follow instructions for 10.11 ''(Installing Xcode, XQuartz, run without TCL)'' but install '''Qt4''' like shown below instead:
| |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | brew install cartr/qt4/qt
| |
| − | xcode-select --install
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | | |
| − | Confirmed with Xcode:
| |
| − | * Version 8.1 (8B62) and cmake version 3.4.20151021-g8fbc8e
| |
| − | * Version 8.3.3 and cmake 3.5.2
| |
| − | <!--
| |
| − | DCMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET:STRING=10.9 -DSlicer_USE_PYTHONQT_WITH_TCL:BOOL=OFF ../Slicer

| − | ==== Common Prerequisites ====
| |
| − | * [{{tool|download|cmake}} CMake] >= 3.0 (3.7.1 recommended)
| |
| − | * [{{tool|download|git}} Git] >= 1.7.10
| |
| − | <!--
| |

| − | * [https://code.google.com/p/msysgit/downloads/list?can=3 ''Git-X.X.X-preview2013XXXX.exe''] recommended.
| |
| − | -->
| |
| − | <!--
| |
| − | ** Use of [http://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/ TortoiseGit] is optional.
| |
| − | -->
| |
| − | ** {{note}}CMake must be able to find ''git.exe'' and ''patch.exe''. If git is installed in the default location then they may be found there, but if they are not found then either add the folder that contains them to PATH environment variable; or set GIT_EXECUTABLE and Patch_EXECUTABLE as environment variables or as CMake variables at configure time.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Subversion (SVN) client: any SVN client that has command line tools
| |
| − | ** [http://www.sliksvn.com/en/download SlikSvn] <!-- or [http://www.cygwin.com cygwin's svn client]-->, or
| |
| − | ** [https://tortoisesvn.net/downloads.html TortoiseSVN] - make sure you install ''Command line client tools'' component (disabled by default)
| |
| − | | |
| − | * NSIS (optional): Needed if packaging Slicer - Click [http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Download here] to download. Make sure you install the language packs.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Qt:
| |
| − | ** Qt5 <b>recommended and officially supported</b>. Download [https://download.qt.io/official_releases/online_installers/qt-unified-windows-x86-online.exe qt-unified-windows-x86-online.exe] and install Qt along with <tt>qtscript</tt> and <tt>qtwebengine</tt> components. For building with VS2015, Qt version 5.10.x or older is required. For more details, read [[Documentation/Nightly/Developers/Build Instructions/Prerequisites/Qt5|step-by-step]] guide.
| |
| − | ** Qt 4: will still work until Slicer-4.10 but not officially supported. See details [[Documentation/{{documentation/version}}/Developers/Build_Instructions/Prerequisites/Qt#Windows|here]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== Tested and recommended build environment ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | * VS2015
| |
| − | ** Make sure you enable installation of component ''Programming languages / Visual C++ / Common Tools for Visual C++ 2015'' (in some distributions, this option is not enabled by default)
| |
| − | ** Installation of [https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt752379.aspx Cumulative Servicing Release for Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 (KB3165756)] is required on some older VS2015 distributions
| |
| − | * Qt 5.10
| |
| − | * CMake >= 3.3.1
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== Experimental/deprecated build environments ====
| |
| − | * [https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/community/ Visual Studio 2017 (Community or any other edition)] with VS2015 build tools (tested, works well)
| |
| − | ** When configuring Visual Studio installer, enable installation of component ''VC++ 2015.3 v14.00 (v140) toolset for desktop''
| |
| − | ** Visual Studio 2015 toolset must be set in CMake: ''Optional toolset to use (argument to -T)'' need to be set to ''v140''
| |
| − | * [https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/news/vs2013-community-vs.aspx Visual Studio 2013] with Update 5 (deprecated, should still work)
| |
| − | ** As of [https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/commit/71602609ce2ae5e473ece392500825ca96213371 commit 7160260]: Slicer compilation is successful, with some caveats.
| |
| − | ** Build Qt 4.8.7 with SSL support using [https://github.com/jcfr/qt-easy-build/tree/4.8.7 qt-easy-build].
| |
| − | ** '''Note: be sure to pick the version of qmake that you built in the earlier steps if applicable (CMake may pick a different qmake, for example if installed with anaconda)'''
| |
| − | * VS2012 (untested, may work)
| |
| − | ** Use a desktop version such as [http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/eng/downloads#d-express-windows-desktop Visual Studio 2012 Express <b>for Windows Desktop</b>] and remember [http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=38188 Visual Studio 2012 Update 2]). Do <b>not</b> use Visual Studio Express 2012 <em>for Windows 8</em>. You must install [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms717422.aspx Windows SDK], otherwise CMake will not even find the C compiler during configure. In CMake, choose <tt>Visual Studio 11 Win64</tt> as generator.
| |
