*ZDoom binary dependencies for macOS

This repository contains all binary dependencies required to build macOS application bundles of ZDoom-derived source ports. A few other projects are supported as well, with lesser priority though.

Usage

Download source code, and build a target

build.py --target=<target-name>

Build target from existing source code

build.py --source=<path-to-source-code>

Generate Xcode project instead of building target, and open it

build.py --source=...|--target=... --xcode

Run build.py without arguments for complete list of options.

Prerequisites

• Xcode 12.2 or newer, launch it once to finish installation
• CMake 3.18 or newer, CMake.app in /Applications or system-wide cmake console executable

Directories

• build directory stores all intermediary files created during targets compilation, customizable with --build-path command line option
• deps directory stores all dependencies (headers, libraries, executable and additional files) in the corresponding subdirectories
• output directory stores built main targets, customizable with --output-path command line option
• prefix directory stores symbolic links to all dependencies combined as one build root
• sdk directory can contain macOS SDKs that will be picked if match with macOS deployment versions
• source directory stores targets source code, customizable with --source-path command line option

Common information

Libraries were built using 10.9 SDK (Intel x64_64) and 11.0 SDK (ARM64).
macOS 10.9 SDK was obtained from Xcode 6.4. macOS 11.0 SDK was obtained from Xcode 12.2.
