= Compiling BRL-CAD with Xcode on Mac OS X =

An already built and running version of BRL-CAD for Mac OS X can be downloaded from here(), or these steps will guide you through the process of how to build it yourself.

== Obtain Dev Tools ==

Download the latest version of CMake for Mac OS X: http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html

Latest BRL-CAD SOURCE (http://sourceforge.net/projects/brlcad/files/BRL-CAD%20Source/)

Latest Xcode (Downloadable from Mac App Store) - While installing, make sure command-line tools are installed as well, or if you already have Xcode, click here to see how to make sure they're installed.

-The latest version of the BRL-CAD source is also required, which can be obtained  [https://sourceforge.net/projects/brlcad/files/BRL-CAD%20Source/ here].
-You will also need Xcode, which can be downloaded from the Mac App Store. When installing, make sure you install the unix development command-line tools. Or if Xcode is already installed on your system, you can install the command line tools (or double-check to make sure you have them) by navigating to Xcode Preferences > Downloads and in the components tab, you should see Command Line Tools:

-== Compiling ==
-Navigate to the BRL-CAD source directory you downloaded and create a new folder titled "brlcad-build." This is where we will store the configured build:

-[[Image:XcodeBRLCADProject.png|thumb|right|256px|The Xcode project file that should result.]]
-Open Terminal (in /User/Applications/Utilities) and cd to the location of the BRL-CAD source folder (Note: you can type cd, press the spacebar, and then drag the brlcad folder to copy its search path):
-  cd brlcad-7.22.0
-Now, we create a BRL-CAD Xcode project that we can use to compile BRL-CAD:

-(this may take some time)
-  cd brlcad-build
+Latest Xcode (Downloadable from Mac App Store) - While installing, make sure command-line tools are installed as well, or if you already have Xcode, click here to see how to make sure they're installed.
-  cmake .. -G Xcode
-== Finishing ==
-Open the resulting BRLCAD.xcodeproj file with Xcode and press Build and Run. Thats it!
