Hi,
I am about to try compiling and using master on macOS. I just has a look at
INSTALL.MacOSX. It mentions Qt version 4. That seems a bit outdated. But I
guess that I am looking at the latest guide to compile on macOS, right?
Yes, it’s outdated. It should work with Qt4 - but Qt4 cannot be used on recent
macOS.
Basically I’m using the script LyX-Mac-binary-release.sh in development folder.
That’s much easier than other options, IMO.
First step is to install Xcode and the automake and/or cmake utilities. This
can be done with macports or homebrew. I’m using macports.
Second step is to get Qt5 - as source or binary distribution. I’m using the
source tarball and build Qt5 myself.
Optional components are the spell checker and libmagic frameworks.
Finally I start development/LyX-Mac-binary-release.sh with
--enable-cxx11
--with-qt-dir=/path/to/qt5
Stephan
Thanks. Finally came around trying it on macOS. I take it one has to run the
last command with sh, right? So, from the lyx directory (in the lyxgit
directory) I execute
sh development/LyX-Mac-binary-release.sh --enable-cxx11
--with-qt-dir=/Users/<username>/Qt/5.9.9
(where I replace <username> by my macOS user name. Unfortunately, I get the
following:
: command not found-binary-release.sh: line 2:

By the way, if finally successful, where will this put the LyX.app?

I’ve made a protocol of the steps I took to build the package on a new system.
See the attached log. Probably the crucial thing is the mklyx-2.3.4.3.sh script.
I’m used to configure and build LyX out of source. I have a working directory
with one or more versions of LyX source code and a directory lyx-build for the
results. For Qt I have a source directory and an install target in parallel,
the build directory is in lyx-build.
$ ls /Users/Shared/LyX
lyx-2.3.4.3 (source)
lyx-2.3.5.2 (source)
lyx-build (directory)
qt-5.9.9-frameworks-cocoa-x86_64 (QTDIR for 5.9.9)
qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.9.9 (source)
The lyx-build contains the build directory, the installed package (LyX.app) and
the resulting disk image.
$ ls /Users/Shared/LyX/
LyX-2.3.4.3+qt5-x86_64-cocoa.dmg (disk image)
LyX-2.3.4.3.app (working app)
LyX-2.3.4.3.build (binaries)
LyX-2.3.5.2+qt5-x86_64-cocoa.dmg (disk image)
LyX-2.3.5.2.app (working app)
LyX-2.3.5.2.build (binaries)
qt-5.9.9-build-x86_64 (binaries)
The /bin/sh on a Mac is in fact a bash, IMO.
Stephan
I am using git to download the lyx source and qt installer. But the steps
should be the same except for the unpacking and setting my own directories,
right?
Also what does
osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to display notification "LyX is great
stuff"'
do? It looks strange.
Daniel
Okay, I guess it can't be the same because there is a specific LyX version
mentioned (2.3.4.3). What would I use if I want to compile from git (master)?
Yes, that’s true - this is the build from the shipped tar file for 2.3.4.3. But
it works for git clones too.
The difference to master is the name of the directory and this is your choice.
I’m using „lyx“ for it. I have another git clone for stable named „lyx-2.3.x“.
The resulting applications are placed in lyx-build and named according to the
AC_INIT macro in configure.ac (e.g. LyX,2.4.0dev => LyX-2.4.0dev.app).
In case you want to do the single steps w/o the build script you may try the
following:
1. create a dedicated build dir - e.g. lyx-build/master
2. create or update the configure script - run autogen.sh in your git checkout
(in place)
In this step I get:
% sh autogen.sh
: command not found
: command not found
: command not found:
'utogen.sh: line 18: syntax error near unexpected token `in
'utogen.sh: line 18: `case $automake_version in
I guess it does not fails for some reason?
