Dear David M. Wood:

 

I have an alternative is that you can install a precompiled version using Macports (http://macports.org). It is also a common way to install free softwares on Macintosh.

Cheers.

In response to Damien's urging from yesterday, I'm asking for help in building V_Sim.

I'm running Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and am trying to build V_Sim version 3.4.4.  I'm using fink to provide needed libraries.

After considerable experimentation, I found that

./configure --x-libraries=/usr/X11/lib --x-includes=/usr/X11/include

completes and produces a makefile, with the report

Configuration:
   Source code location:     .
   Destination path prefix:  /usr/local
   Compiler:                 gcc
   CFLAGS:                   -O2 -Wall -W -ansi
   LDFLAGS:
   OpenGL:                   built-in
    | CFLAGS:                -I/usr/X11/include
    | LIBS:                  -lGLU -lGL -L/usr/X11/lib -lX11  -lm

   Enable debug messages:    no
   Enable gtk-doc:           no

   Plug-ins:
   With Nanoquanta support:  no
   With OpenBabel support:   no
   With ABINIT support:      no
   With XCrysDen support:    no

   Plug-ins options:
   Need a C++ compiler:      no

======Note=============
The sequence

./configure --with-opengl-path=/usr/X11/include--with-opengl-path=/usr/X11/include

as instructed under the heading Specific points about the installation of V_Sim on MacOSX from sources on the installation page does NOT work: no OpenGL libraries are detected.
======End Note=============



But, an attempt to 'make' produces a large cascade of complaints, such as

Before I even attempt to include ABINIT plugins,  can anyone suggest what's going wrong?

It's worth noting, for example, that the header gl.h occurs on my system in a damnably large number of places

/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/AGL.framework/Versions/A/Headers/gl.h
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/Versions/A/Headers/gl.h
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/X11/include/GL/gl.h
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/AGL.framework/Versions/A/Headers/gl.h
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/Versions/A/Headers/gl.h
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/X11/include/GL/gl.h
/System/Library/Frameworks/AGL.framework/Versions/A/Headers/gl.h
/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/Versions/A/Headers/gl.h
/sw/include/FL/gl.h
/sw/include/mesa/GL/gl.h
/usr/X11/include/GL/gl.h

It smells like there are incompatibilities among these and that the make process grabs headers from too many places?

Thanks for any help!
