At this time, the newest SDK version that Audacity can build with is 10.6.
To build Audacity using Xcode 5.1 or newer, you need to extract the 10.6 SDK
from an earlier version of Xcode.
In the instructions below, Xcode 4.3.3 (for the 10.6 SDK) and Xcode 8.1 will
be used. Fuller instructions that cover
* Using other Xcodes
* Optional signing of DMGs
* Applying wxWidgets patches one by one
can be found on our wiki at http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Building_On_Mac
1) Download Xcode 8.1 and install it to /Applications.
2) Download Xcode 4.3.3 (it includes the 10.6 and 10.7 SDK's despite
the downloads page says it only has the 10.7 SDK).
3) Open the DMG in Finder.
4) Right-click the "Xcode.app" bundle and select "Show Package Contents".
5) Navigate down the directories to get to:
Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/ .
6) Copy the MacOSX10.6.sdk folder to:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/
7) Change the MinimumSDKVersion key value in
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Info.plist
to 10.6
Xcode is now ready.
8) Download audacity patched wxWidgets 3.0.2 zip from the audacity copy of the
wxWidgets project:
https://github.com/audacity/wxWidgets/tree/audacity-fixes
it's the green "clone or download" button on the right.
Don't be tempted to use Widgets already installed by a package manager such
as Homebrew because this will cause problems.
9) Once the download is complete, unzip it:
unzip wxWidgets-audacity-fixes.zip
10) Change directory to the folder wxWidgets was extracted to then build/install
wxWidgets:
sudo <path to Audacity source>/mac/build_wxwidgets .
You should now be able to build Audacity using either the Xcode application or
the Xcodebuild command line tool.
* Change directory to <path to Audacity source>/mac
* Optionally, if you have built before, clean the Debug build with:
xcodebuild clean
* If you have built the Release build, clean with:
xcodebuild clean -configuration Release
* Build Audacity and create DMG and ZIP bundles in
/private/tmp by typing the following in the terminal:
xcodebuild -configuration Release install
* If you use the Xcode application, don't make any changes to
Audacity.xcodeproj recommended by Xcode. In particular, be sure to leave the
Base SDK configuration set to 10.6 as it is now.
If you need Audacity to show languages other than English, install the gettext
suite of tools (to get the msgfmt command). The source can be downloaded from:
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gettext/gettext-latest.tar.gz
Untar it:
tar xf gettext-latest.tar.gz
And install:
cd gexttext-latest
./configure
sudo make install
