Building OpenOCD for macOS
--------------------------
# Building OpenOCD for macOS
There are a few prerequisites you will need first:
- Xcode (install from the AppStore)
- Command Line Tools (install from Xcode -> Preferences -> Downloads)
- Gentoo Prefix (http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/gentoo-alt/prefix/bootstrap.xml)
or
- Homebrew (http://mxcl.github.io/homebrew/)
or
- MacPorts (http://www.macports.org/install.php)
- One of the following tools:
- Gentoo Prefix (<https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Prefix/Bootstrap>)
- Homebrew (<https://brew.sh/>)
- MacPorts (<https://www.macports.org/install.php>)
If you're building manually you need Texinfo version 5.0 or later. The
simplest way to get it is to use Homebrew (brew install texinfo) and
then ``export PATH=/usr/local/opt/texinfo/bin:$PATH``.
simplest way to get it is to use Homebrew (`brew install texinfo`) and
then `export PATH=/usr/local/opt/texinfo/bin:$PATH`.
With Gentoo Prefix you can build the release version or the latest
devel version (-9999) the usual way described in the Gentoo
documentation. Alternatively, install the prerequisites and build
manually from the sources.
With Homebrew you can either run:
brew install [--HEAD] openocd (where optional --HEAD asks brew to
install the current git version)
or
brew install libtool automake libusb [hidapi] [libftdi]
(to install the needed dependencies and then proceed with the
brew install [--HEAD] openocd (where optional --HEAD asks brew to
install the current Git version)
or
brew install libtool automake libusb [hidapi] [libftdi] (to install the needed dependencies and then proceed with the
manual building procedure)
For building with MacPorts you need to run:
sudo port install libtool automake autoconf pkgconfig \
libusb [libftdi1]
You should also specify LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS to allow configure to use
MacPorts' libraries, so run configure like this:
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/local/include ./configure [options]
sudo port install libtool automake autoconf pkgconfig libusb [libftdi1]
You should also specify LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS to allow `configure` to use
MacPorts' libraries, so run configure like this: `LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/local/include ./configure [options]`
See README.md for the generic building instructions.
See [README](README.md) for the generic building instructions.
If you're using a USB adapter and have a driver kext matched to it,
you will need to unload it prior to running OpenOCD. E.g. with Apple
driver (OS X 10.9 or later) for FTDI run:
sudo kextunload -b com.apple.driver.AppleUSBFTDI
for FTDI vendor driver use:
sudo kextunload FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext
To learn more on the topic please refer to the official libusb FAQ:
https://github.com/libusb/libusb/wiki/FAQ
sudo kextunload -b com.apple.driver.AppleUSBFTDI
for FTDI vendor driver use:
sudo kextunload FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext
