CCP4 Molecular Graphics Documentation
	Build Instructions for CCP4MG on Mac OS X

These instructions explain how to build a single architecture version for a single major release of OS X. Instructions on how to build a Universal binary for PPC/Intel are more complicated, but will be documented shortly.

Compile CCP4 libs with gcc/g++

• Download and compile ccp4 source.

Install Python2.6

• Install Mac Installer Disk Image of Python (2.6.1).

Install Qt 4.5

• Get the Qt SDK for Mac from Qt downloads

Install PyQt

Caution this is untested!

• Download latest development snapshots of sip and PyQt.
• At a bash (or other Bourne type shell) prompt (environment variable setup will be different for csh type shells).

    cd sip-4.8-snapshot-20090311
    /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python configure.py
  
    cd PyQt-win-gpl-4.5-snapshot-20090311
    /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python configure.py
    make
    make install
  

Compile MG

The setting of environment variables on command line assumes Bourne type shell. You will need to do some setenv commands for csh type shells.

mkdir ccp4mg_dir
cd ccp4mg_dir
CVS_RSH=ssh CVSROOT=mgdev@cvs.ccp4.ac.uk:/public/ccp4mg/MG_CVS cvs -z9 co -r Rel_2_B .
ln -s ccp4_build clipper
PATH=/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/$PATH ./configure 
make

Compile Pixie

• Download libtiff.

  tar zxf tiff-X.Y.Z.tar.gz
  cd tiff-X.Y.Z
  ./configure --prefix=libtiff_install_root
  make
  make install
  

• Download Pixie

• tar zxf Pixie-X.Y.Z.tar.gz
  cd Pixie-X.Y.Z
  /configure  --prefix=ccp4mg_dir/pixie LDFLAGS='-Llibtiff_install_root/lib' CPPFLAGS='-Ilibtiff_install_root/include'
  make
  make install
  

  This compilation takes a long time.
• Pixie packaging seems a little broken: The supplied shaders are in CR/LF (Dos) format, yet the rndr executable really wants them to be in CR (Unix) format. We have to fix them (Bourne shell instructions):

  cd ccp4mg_dir/pixie/shaders
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD/../lib 
  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  for in *.sl; do
    ../bin/sdrc $i
  done
  

Compile PISA

In preparation.

PISA will have been built when CCP4 was built (it is part of it).

cp ccp4_dir/src/pisa/pisa ccp4mg_dirccp4_suite/bin

But we are still having to make some patches which we hope to agree with the PISA author Eugene Krissinel.

Install monomer library

cp -Rp ccp4_dir/lib/data/monomers/ ccp4mg_dir/data/monomer_library

Run the program

Build release

mkdir ccp4mg_dir/Frameworks
cp -Rp /Library/Frameworks/Qt*.framework ccp4mg_dir/Frameworks
cp -Rp /Developer/Applications/Qt/plugins ccp4mg_dir/QtPlugins
cp -Rp /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework ccp4mg_dir/Frameworks
