1. Prerequisites for building zint and zint-qt
|
|
==============================================
|
|
|
|
Start a terminal.
|
|
|
|
First if not already installed, install the developer command line tools
|
|
|
|
xcode-select --install
|
|
|
|
This can take a (very) long time. Once done, check for updates by selecting "System Preferences" > "Software Update",
|
|
and clicking "Advanced" and "OK" (with all the checkboxes set) to trigger the check. If updates are found, install.
|
|
This can also take a long time.
|
|
|
|
With the latest versions of the command line tools, "/usr/include" no longer has the standard C include files. Set
|
|
SDKROOT to overcome this (https://stackoverflow.com/a/60002595/664741)
|
|
|
|
export SDKROOT=$(xcrun --sdk macosx --show-sdk-path)
|
|
|
|
Install Homebrew (unless already installed)
|
|
|
|
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
|
|
|
|
Install CMake, libpng and Qt5 (git, make, cc & c++ should already be available with command line tools)
|
|
|
|
brew install cmake
|
|
brew install libpng
|
|
brew install qt5
|
|
|
|
Clone and install the gs1encoders library (optional but necessary for GS1 Syntax Engine support):
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/gs1/gs1-syntax-engine
|
|
cd gs1-syntax-engine/src/c-lib
|
|
make lib && sudo make install
|
|
cd ../../..
|
|
|
|
Add the Qt5 bin directory to the PATH
|
|
|
|
export PATH='/usr/local/opt/qt@5/bin':"$PATH"
|
|
|
|
Clone the latest zint source
|
|
|
|
git clone https://git.code.sf.net/p/zint/code zint
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Build
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
The rest is standard CMake
|
|
|
|
cd zint
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
cd build
|
|
cmake ..
|
|
make
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
|
|
This installs into "/usr/local". You can then move the GUI "/usr/local/bin/zint-qt.app" into the main "/Applications"
|
|
folder if you wish.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. CMake options
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
See "README.linux".
