2NB: This is the old wxCocoa port, you almost certainly want to read
3 docs/osx/install.txt for instructions about building wxOSX/Cocoa instead.

6wxCocoa is still a work in progress.

8To compile it, you will need Apple's Developer Tools. However, please
9note that any work to make it suitable for GNUstep (which will require
10a GCC release with Objective-C++) will be much appreciated.

12Like most UNIX ports, the standard configure/make method works. You should
13be able to build the library as static or shared. I usually build static.

15On my system I have the following:

17Checked out CVS source is in:
18/Users/dfe/devel/wxHEADcommit/wxWidgets
19Debug build directory is:
20/Users/dfe/devel/wxHEADcommit/BUILD_COCOAd
21
22From the debug build directory:
23$ ../wxWidgets/configure --with-cocoa --enable-debug --disable-shared
24$ make
25$ cd samples/minimal
26$ make
27$ ./minimal.app/Contents/MacOS/minimal

29Like wxMac applications, wxCocoa applications are "bundled". For development
30purposes all this means is that an executable named "foo" needs to be
31inside a "foo.app/Contents/MacOS" directory. For deployment you will need
32an appropriate Info.plist and PkgInfo inside the foo.app/Contents directory.

34wxCocoa (and Cocoa in general) has no need for Mac OS resources. It
35certainly has no need for resource forks as no Mach-O applications should
36_ever_ have resource forks (note: Bakefile violates this right now).
37Please see the wxWiki and/or discuss this with wx-users before shipping
38any wxCocoa apps if you are new to the OS X platform.
