  1. QStarDict for Mac OS X is set to be built as a "bundle" application.
  2. Distributed packages should contain all required stuff to run out-of-the-box.
  3. All following notes are important for developers.
  4. BUILDING REQUIREMENTS:
  5. * Qt4 libraries/frameworks (tested with macport's qt4-mac+universal)
  6. * glib2 devel environment (I'm using macports for it too)
  7. * all other libraries are propably part of mac's OS
  8. CONFIRURE PHASE:
  9. qmake
  10. it will build qstardict and install it into /opt (sudo make install will be required)
  11. or:
  12. qmake INSTALL_PREFIX=/absolute/path/to/selected/dir
  13. it will build qstardict and install it into this location.
  14. The path *must* be absolute. Relative path will cause install problems.
  15. example:
  16. qmake INSTALL_PREFIX=/Users/pvanek/oss/qstardict/release
  17. MAKE PHASE:
  18. just run: make
  19. INSTALL PHASE:
  20. make install
  21. DEPLOY PHASE:
  22. macdeployqt path/to/QStarDict.app/
  23. or:
  24. macdeployqt path/to/QStarDict.app/ -dmg
  25. for dmg build (but I'm using another tool for it)
