# OpenOCD for macOS
|
|
|
|
This README contains instructions that are specific to macOS.
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
There are a few prerequisites you will need first:
|
|
|
|
- Xcode (install from the AppStore)
|
|
- Command Line Tools (install from Xcode -> Preferences -> Downloads)
|
|
- 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`.
|
|
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
brew install [--HEAD] open-ocd
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Where ``--HEAD`` asks ``brew`` to install the current Git version instead of the
|
|
lastest release.
|
|
|
|
You can also run:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/local/include ./configure [options]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo kextunload -b com.apple.driver.AppleUSBFTDI
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
for FTDI vendor driver use:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo kextunload FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext
|
|
```
|
|
