Genesis/MegaDrive Development Environment for Mac OS X
This project is based on mattkubilus's gendev project. Check his wonderful work first, please! https://github.com/kubilus1/gendev
The purpose of my project is to make gendev be able to build and work properly on Mac OSX with minimal changes applied.
Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 with Command Line Tools for XCode 6.4 is the reference build environment for current release. That means it should be built with Apple LLVM 6.1.0 (clang- 602.0.53).
4.9G disk storage space is required for temporary obj files and target files generation.
- I have not tested building it with toolchain in MacPorts. So if you have MacPorts installed and got failed in building. I suggest you install a clean OS X in a Virtual Machine and get a copy of XCode command line tool from https://developer.apple.com/downloads/
Wget is required during the build progress to download several external source packages.
# Download, compile and install wget:
curl -O http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/wget/wget-1.16.tar.gz
tar -xzf wget-1.16.tar.gz
cd wget-1.16
./configure --with-ssl=openssl
make
sudo make install
cd .. && rm -rf wget*The path /opt/toolchains/gen/ may required to be created manually with root permission. It should be chmoded to make the shell user writable.
sudo mkdir -p /opt/toolchains/gen
sudo chmod -R 777 /optgit clone http://github.com/SONIC3D/gendev-macos.git
cd gendev-macos
makeMake proper exports for the toolchain before compile any genesis/32x project:
export GENDEV=/opt/toolchains/gen
export PATH=$GENDEV/sh-elf/bin:$GENDEV/m68k-elf/bin:$GENDEV/bin:$PATHCheck mattkubilus's gendev project site at the beginning of this file and the url below for further information:
