+wxWindows 2.5 for Mac installation
+----------------------------------
+
+On MacOS X, you can download Apple's free developer tools (gcc
+and associated headers and libraries, such as the Carbon API).
+You can then use configure in a similar way to compiling
+wxWindows on Linux (or on Windows using MinGW or Cygwin). See
+'Apple Developer Tools' below for more details on using
+configure.
+
+To target on MacOS 8 or 9, you need to buy Metrowerks
+CodeWarrior. You can then compile Mac Classic or MacOS X
+applications on Mac OS X, or compile Mac Classic or MacOS X
+applications on Mac Classic. However you can only run and debug
+each type of application on the target operating system.

Installing latest headers (and Carbon Support)
----------------------------------------------

-2. you have to download the 3.4.0 (or greater) universal interfaces from

CodeWarrior Pro 5:Pre-Release:Carbon & MacOSX Development:Carbonized MSL and
CodeWarrior Pro 5:Pre-Release:Carbon & MacOSX Development:Carbonized Runtimes
(consult the file CodeWarrior Pro 5:Pre-Release:Carbon & MacOSX Development:Carbon & MacOSX README)
If you want OpenGL support with CodeWarrior, set wxUSE_OPENGL to 1 in
include/wx/setup.h
-If you don't want OpenGl support, remove the file "glcanvas.cpp" from the
-project before compilation and leave the setting at 0
+If you don't want OpenGl support, set wxUSE_OPENGL to 0 (the
+default) and remove the file OpenGLLibraryStub from the project
+before compilation.
If you want OpenGL support with the Apple Developer Tools under Mac OS X, add
--with-opengl to the arguments of configure when configuring wxMac.
CodeWarrior projects in the distribution (see AppleScript Files below):
- *M5.xml -> *M5.mcp for CodeWarrior 5.3
- *M6.xml -> *M6.mcp for CodeWarrior 6
- - *M7.xml -> *M7.mcp for CodeWarrior 7
+ - *M7.xml -> *M7.mcp for CodeWarrior 7 and above.
In order to build the library (and then the samples) you need to make the
-following projects (for 5.3)
-:src:wxxindowsM5.mcp
+following projects (for CW 5.3, similar process for CW 7):
+
+:src:wxwindowsM5.mcp
:src:png:pngM5.mcp
:src:tiff:tiffM5.mcp
:src:jpeg:jpegM5.mcp
:src:zlib:zlibM5.mcp
+Note that if using CW 8 and above, when compiling the samples
+you may need to edit the target settings, click on Language
+Settings, C/++ Language and remove the forward slash at the
+start of /wx/wx_cw_d.h (or similar filename).
