Installation notes for EPICS on Mac OS X (Darwin).

EPICS Base
|
|
==========
|
|
1) EPICS for Mac OS X (Darwin) can not be built with OS X Developer Tools
|
|
older than the April 2002 release. The April tools, which were the most
|
|
recent when this note was written, are not bug-free. The compiler produces
|
|
bad code when run with -O3 or higher so CONFIG.darwin-ppc.darwin-ppc sets
|
|
the optimization level to -O2. Hopefully a new release of developer tools
|
|
will remove this restriction.
|
|
|
|
2) If broadcasts are not seen locally, then it may help to add "localhost"
|
|
(127.0.0.1) to the EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST.
|
|
|
|
EPICS Extensions
|
|
================
|
|
Many extensions build and run properly on OS X. To build and run MEDM, first
|
|
obtain the X11 and OpenMotif3 packages from the Fink distribution. Running
|
|
X11 applications on Darwin is quite a bit easier if you install the OroborOSX
|
|
application as well.
