µGFX can be run natively on a MacOS system. This simplifies the process of developing your embedded GUI application a lot.

The MacOS port has been tested successfully on MacOS 10.10, 10.11, 10.12 and 11.1.

Dependencies

Make sure you got the following things installed:

  • clang (by installing Xcode)
  • SDL2 (by installing via: brew install sdl2)

Makefile

Copy the makefile that can be found in /boards/base/OSX/example/ to your project directory. You need to set the OSX_SDK and OSX_ARCH variables.

OSX_SDK

The OSX_SDK variable needs to contain the path to the OS X SDK. The path can be found by executing xcodebuild -sdk -version in the terminal: 

TecMac:osx joel.bodenmann$ xcodebuild -sdk -version
MacOSX10.11.sdk - OS X 10.11 (macosx10.11)
SDKVersion: 10.11
Path: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.11.sdkPlatformVersion: 1.1
PlatformPath: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform
ProductBuildVersion: 15E60
ProductCopyright: 1983-2016 Apple Inc.
ProductName: Mac OS X
ProductUserVisibleVersion: 10.11.4
ProductVersion: 10.11.4

In our case we set the OSX_SDK variable as follows: 

OSX_SDK = /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.11.sdk

OSX_ARCH

The OSX_ARCH variable is used to specify on which earliest/oldest version of MacOS X the executable will be able to run on. Usually it's enough to just set it to the version of OS X that you are running which you can find my executing sw_vers in a terminal: 

TecMac:osx joel.bodenmann$ sw_vers 
ProductName:	Mac OS X
ProductVersion:	10.11.4BuildVersion:	15E65

In our case we are running OS X version 10.11: 

OSX_ARCH = -mmacosx-version-min=10.11

For more information about the macosx-version-min option, please refer to the corresponding compiler documentation.
