<H1>2. Overview</H1>

<P>
QGIS, like a number of major projects (eg. KDE 4.0), uses CMake
(<A HREF="http://www.cmake.org">http://www.cmake.org</A>) for building from source.
</P>
<P>
Following a summary of the required dependencies for building:
</P>
<P>
Required build tools:
</P>

<UL>
<LI>CMake &gt;= 2.8.0
<LI>Flex
<LI>Bison &gt;= 2.4
</UL>

<P>
Required build deps:
</P>

<UL>
<LI>Qt &gt;= 4.5.0
<LI>Proj &gt;= 4.4.x
<LI>GEOS &gt;= 3.0
<LI>Sqlite3 &gt;= 3.0.0
<LI>GDAL/OGR &gt;= 1.4.x
<LI>Qwt &gt;= 5.0 &amp; (&lt; 6.1 with internal QwtPolar)
<LI>expat &gt;= 1.95
</UL>

<P>
Optional dependencies:
</P>

<UL>
<LI>for GRASS plugin - GRASS &gt;= 6.0.0 (libraries compiled with exceptions support on Linux 32bit)
<LI>for georeferencer - GSL &gt;= 1.8
<LI>for postgis support and SPIT plugin - PostgreSQL &gt;= 8.0.x
<LI>for gps plugin - gpsbabel
<LI>for mapserver export and PyQGIS - Python &gt;= 2.3 (2.5+ preferred)
<LI>for python support - SIP &gt;= 4.8, PyQt &gt;= must match Qt version, Qscintilla2
<LI>for qgis mapserver - FastCGI
</UL>

<A NAME="toc3"></A>
<H1>3. Building on GNU/Linux</H1>

<A NAME="toc4"></A>
<H2>3.1. Building QGIS with Qt 4.x</H2>

<P>
<B>Requires:</B> Ubuntu / Debian derived distro
</P>
<P>
These notes are for Ubuntu - other versions and Debian derived distros may
require slight variations in package names.
</P>
<P>
These notes are for if you want to build QGIS from source. One of the major
aims here is to show how this can be done using binary packages for <B>*all*</B>
dependencies - building only the core QGIS stuff from source. I prefer this
approach because it means we can leave the business of managing system packages
to apt and only concern ourselves with coding QGIS! 
</P>
<P>
This document assumes you have made a fresh install and have a 'clean' system.
These instructions should work fine if this is a system that has already been
in use for a while, you may need to just skip those steps which are irrelevant
to you.
</P>
<P>
/!\ <B>Note:</B> Refer to the section Building Debian packages for building 
debian packages.  Unless you plan to develop on QGIS, that is probably the
easiest option to compile and install QGIS.
</P>

<A NAME="toc5"></A>
<H2>3.2. Prepare apt</H2>

<P>
The packages qgis depends on to build are available in the "universe" component
of Ubuntu. This is not activated by default, so you need to activate it:
</P>

<OL>
<LI>Edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file.  
<LI>Uncomment all the lines starting with "deb"
<P></P>
Also you will need to be running (K)Ubuntu 'edgy' or higher in order for 
all dependencies to be met.
<P></P>
Now update your local sources database:
<P></P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo apt-get update 
</PRE></div>

<P>
(extracted from the respective control files in <CODE>debian/</CODE>)
</P>
<P>
/!\ <B>A Special Note:</B> If you are following this set of instructions on
a system where you already have Qt3 development tools installed, there will
be a conflict between Qt3 tools and Qt4 tools. For example, qmake will
point to the Qt3 version, not the Qt4. Ubuntu Qt4 and Qt3 packages are
designed to live alongside each other. This means that, for example, if you
have them both installed, you will have three qmake exe's:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
/usr/bin/qmake -&gt; /etc/alternatives/qmake 
/usr/bin/qmake-qt3
/usr/bin/qmake-qt4 
</PRE></div>

<P>
The same applies to all other Qt binaries. You will notice above that the
canonical 'qmake' is managed by apt alternatives, so before we start to
build QGIS, we need to make Qt4 the default. To return Qt3 to default later
you can use this same process.
</P>
<P>
You can use apt alternatives to correct this so that the Qt4 version of
applications is used in all cases:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo update-alternatives --config qmake
sudo update-alternatives --config uic 
sudo update-alternatives --config designer 
sudo update-alternatives --config assistant 
sudo update-alternatives --config qtconfig 
sudo update-alternatives --config moc 
sudo update-alternatives --config lupdate 
sudo update-alternatives --config lrelease 
sudo update-alternatives --config linguist 
</PRE></div>

<P>
Use the simple command line dialog that appears after running each of the
above commands to select the Qt4 version of the relevant applications.
</P>
<P>
/!\ <B>Note:</B> For python language bindings SIP &gt;= 4.5 and PyQt4 &gt;= 4.1 is required! Some stable GNU/Linux
distributions (e.g. Debian or SuSE) only provide SIP &lt; 4.5 and PyQt4 &lt; 4.1. To include support for python 
language bindings you may need to build and install those packages from source.
</P>

<A NAME="toc7"></A>
<H2>3.4. Setup ccache (Optional)</H2>

<P>
You should also setup ccache to speed up compile times:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd /usr/local/bin 
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ccache gcc 
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ccache g++ 
</PRE></div>

<A NAME="toc8"></A>
<H2>3.5. Prepare your development environment</H2>

<P>
As a convention I do all my development work in $HOME/dev/&lt;language&gt;, so in
this case we will create a work environment for C++ development work like
this:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
mkdir -p ${HOME}/dev/cpp 
cd ${HOME}/dev/cpp 
</PRE></div>

<P>
This directory path will be assumed for all instructions that follow.
</P>

<A NAME="toc9"></A>
<H2>3.6. Check out the QGIS Source Code</H2>

<P>
There are two ways the source can be checked out. Use the anonymous method
if you do not have edit privileges for the QGIS source repository, or use
  the developer checkout if you have permissions to commit source code
  changes.
</P>
<P>
1. Anonymous Checkout
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd ${HOME}/dev/cpp 
git clone git://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS.git
</PRE></div>

<P>
2. Developer Checkout
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd ${HOME}/dev/cpp 
git clone git@github.com:qgis/Quantum-GIS.git
</PRE></div>

<A NAME="toc10"></A>
<H2>3.7. Starting the compile</H2>

<P>
I compile my development version of QGIS into my ~/apps directory to avoid
conflicts with Ubuntu packages that may be under /usr. This way for example
you can use the binary packages of QGIS on your system along side with your
development version. I suggest you do something similar:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
mkdir -p ${HOME}/apps 
</PRE></div>

<P>
Now we create a build directory and run ccmake:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd Quantum-GIS
mkdir build-master
cd build-master
ccmake ..
</PRE></div>

<P>
When you run ccmake (note the .. is required!), a menu will appear where 
you can configure various aspects of the build. If you do not have root
access or do not want to overwrite existing QGIS installs (by your
packagemanager for example), set the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to somewhere you
have write access to (I usually use ${HOME}/apps). Now press
'c' to configure, 'e' to dismiss any error messages that may appear.
and 'g' to generate the make files. Note that sometimes 'c' needs to 
be pressed several times before the 'g' option becomes available.
After the 'g' generation is complete, press 'q' to exit the ccmake 
interactive dialog.
</P>
<P>
Now on with the build:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
make
make install
</PRE></div>

<P>
It may take a little while to build depending on your platform.
</P>
<P>
After that you can try to run QGIS:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
$HOME/apps/bin/qgis
</PRE></div>

<P>
If all has worked properly the QGIS application should start up and appear
on your screen.
</P>

<A NAME="toc11"></A>
<H2>3.8. Building Debian packages</H2>

<P>
Instead of creating a personal installation as in the previous step you can
also create debian package.  This is done from the qgis root directory, where
you'll find a debian directory.
</P>
<P>
First you need to install the debian packaging tools once:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
apt-get install build-essential
</PRE></div>

<P>
First you need to create an changelog entry for your distribution. For example for Ubuntu Lucid:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
dch -l ~lucid  --force-distribution --distribution lucid "lucid build"
</PRE></div>

<P>
The QGIS packages will be created with:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b
</PRE></div>

<P>
/!\ <B>Note:</B> If <CODE>dpkg-buildpackage</CODE> complains about unmet build dependencies
you can install them using <CODE>apt-get</CODE> and re-run the command.
</P>
<P>
/!\ <B>Note:</B> If you have <CODE>libqgis1-dev</CODE> installed, you need to remove it first
using <CODE>dpkg -r libqgis1-dev</CODE>.  Otherwise <CODE>dpkg-buildpackage</CODE> will complain about a
build conflict.
</P>
<P>
The packages are created in the parent directory (ie. one level up).
Install them using dpkg.  E.g.:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo debi
</PRE></div>

<A NAME="toc12"></A>
<H2>3.9. A practical case: Building QGIS and GRASS from source on Ubuntu with ECW and MrSID formats support</H2>

<P>
The following procedure has been tested on Ubuntu 8.04, 8.10 and 9.04 32bit. If
you want to use different versions of the software (gdal, grass, qgis), just
make the necessary adjustments to the following code. This guide assumes that
you don't have installed any previous version of gdal, grass and qgis.
</P>

<H3>3.9.1. Step 1: install base packages</H3>

<P>
First you need to install the necessary packages required to download the source 
code and compile it. Open the terminal and issue the following command:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo apt-get install build-essential g++ subversion
</PRE></div>

<H3>3.9.2. Step 2: compile and install the ecw libraries</H3>

<P>
Go to the ERDAS web site <A HREF="http://www.erdas.com/">http://www.erdas.com/</A> and follow the links
"'products --> ECW JPEG2000 Codec SDK --> downloads'" 
then download the "'Image Compression SDK Source Code 3.3'" (you'll need to make a registration 
and accept a license).
</P>
<P>
Uncompress the archive in a proper location (this guide assumes 
that all the downloaded source code will be placed in the user home) 
and the enter the newly created folder
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd /libecwj2-3.3
</PRE></div>

<P>
Compile the code with the standard commands
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
./configure
</PRE></div>

<P>
then
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
make
</PRE></div>

<P>
then
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo make install
</PRE></div>

<P>
leave the folder 
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd ..
</PRE></div>

<H3>3.9.3. Step 3: download the MrSID binaries</H3>

<P>
Go to the LIZARDTECH web site <A HREF="http://www.lizardtech.com/">http://www.lizardtech.com/</A> and follow the links
"'download --> Developer SDKs'", 
then download the "'GeoExpress SDK for Linux (x86) - gcc 4.1 32-bit'"
(you'll need to make a registration and accept a license).
</P>
<P>
Uncompress the downloaded file. The resulting directory name should be similar to "Geo_DSDK-7.0.0.2167"
</P>

<H3>3.9.4. Step 4: compile and install the gdal libraries</H3>

<P>
Download the latest gdal source code
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
svn checkout https://svn.osgeo.org/gdal/trunk/gdal gdal
</PRE></div>

<P>
then copy a few files from the MrSID binaries folder to the folder with the gdal source code
('replace "USERNAME" with your actual account username')
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cp /home/USERNAME/Geo_DSDK-7.0.0.2167/include/*.* /home/USERNAME/gdal/frmts/mrsid/
</PRE></div>

<P>
enter the gdal source code folder
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd /gdal
</PRE></div>

<P>
and run configure with a few specific parameters
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
./configure --without-grass --with-mrsid=../Geo_DSDK-7.0.0.2167 --without-jp2mrsid
</PRE></div>

<P>
at the end of the configuration process you should read something like
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
...
GRASS support:             no
...
...
...
ECW support:               yes
MrSID support              yes			
...
</PRE></div>

<P>
then compile normally
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
make
</PRE></div>

<P>
and
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo make install
</PRE></div>

<P>
finish the process by creating the necessary links to the most recent shared libraries
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo ldconfig
</PRE></div>

<P>
at this point you may want to check if gdal was compiled correctly with MrSID and ECW
support by issuing one (or both) of the following commands
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
gdalinfo --formats | grep 'ECW'
</PRE></div>

<div class="code"><PRE>
gdalinfo --formats | grep 'SID'
</PRE></div>

<P>
leave the folder 
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd ..
</PRE></div>

<H3>3.9.5. Step 5: compile and install GRASS</H3>

<P>
Before downloading and compile GRASS source code you need to install a few
other libraries and programs. We can do this through apt
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo apt-get install flex bison libreadline5-dev libncurses5-dev lesstif2-dev \
debhelper dpatch libtiff4-dev tcl8.4-dev tk8.4-dev fftw-dev xlibmesa-gl-dev \
libfreetype6-dev autoconf2.13 autotools-dev libgdal1-dev proj libjpeg62-dev \
libpng12-dev libpq-dev unixodbc-dev doxygen fakeroot cmake python-dev \
python-qt4-common python-qt4-dev python-sip4 python2.5-dev sip4 libglew1.5-dev \
libxmu6 \ libqt4-dev libgsl0-dev python-qt4 swig python-wxversion \
python-wxgtk2.8 libwxgtk2.8-0 libwxbase2.8-0 tcl8.4-dev tk8.4-dev tk8.4 \
libfftw3-dev libfftw3-3
</PRE></div>

<P>
At this point we can get the GRASS source code: you may want to download it
through svn or maybe you want just to download the latest available source code
archive.  For example the GRASS 6.4rc4 is available at
<A HREF="http://grass.itc.it/grass64/source/grass-6.4.0RC4.tar.gz">http://grass.itc.it/grass64/source/grass-6.4.0RC4.tar.gz</A>
</P>
<P>
Uncompress the archive, enter the newly created folder and run configure with a few specific parameters
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
CFLAGS="-fexceptions" ./configure \
--with-tcltk-includes=/usr/include/tcl8.4 \
--with-proj-share=/usr/share/proj \
--with-gdal=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config \
--with-python=/usr/bin/python2.5-config
</PRE></div>

<P>
The additional gcc option -fexceptions is necessary to enable exceptions
support in GRASS libraries. It is currently the only way to avoid QGIS crashes
if a fatal error happens in GRASS library. See also
<A HREF="http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/869">http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/869</A>
</P>
<P>
Then as usual (it will take a while)
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
make
</PRE></div>

<P>
and
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo make install
</PRE></div>

<P>
leave the folder 
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd ..
</PRE></div>

<P>
you have now compiled and installed GRASS (also with the new wxpyhton interface) so you
may want to give it a try
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
grass64 -wxpython
</PRE></div>

<H3>3.9.6. Step 6: Compile and install QGIS</H3>

<P>
As for GRASS you can obtain the QGIS source code from different sources as described 
in section 2 above. Once you have the sources, create a build directory in them:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd Quantum-GIS
mkdir build
cd build
</PRE></div>

<P>
then run ccmake
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
ccmake ..
</PRE></div>

<P>
Press the "c" key to do an initial configure.
Press the "c" again and the option "Press [g] to generate and exit" will appear.
Press the "g" key to generate and exit.
</P>
<P>
then as usual (it will take a while)
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
make
</PRE></div>

<P>
and
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo make install
</PRE></div>

<P>
At the end of the process you should have QGIS and GRASS working with MrSID and ECW
raster format support.
</P>
<P>
To run QGIS just use this command 
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
qgis
</PRE></div>

<H3>4.1.2. Other tools and dependencies</H3>

<P>
Download and install following packages:

</TR>
</TABLE>

<P>
OSGeo4W does not only provide ready packages for the current QGIS release and
nightly builds of the trunk, but also offers most of the dependencies needs to
build it.
</P>
<P>
For the QGIS build you need to install following packages from OSGeo4W (select
<I>Advanced Installation</I>):
</P>

<UL>
<LI>expat
<LI>fcgi
<LI>gdal
<LI>grass
<LI>gsl-devel
<LI>iconv
<LI>pyqt4
<LI>qt4-devel
<LI>qwt5-devel-qt4
<LI>sip
<LI>spatialite
<LI>libspatialindex-devel
<LI>python-qscintilla
</UL>

<P>
This will also select packages the above packages depend on.
</P>
<P>
Additionally QGIS also needs the include file <CODE>unistd.h</CODE>, which normally
doesn't exist on Windows.  It's shipped with Flex/Bison in <CODE>GnuWin32\include</CODE>
and needs to be copied into the <CODE>VC\include</CODE> directory of your Visual C++
installation.
</P>
<P>
Earlier versions of this document also covered how to build all above
dependencies.  If you're interested in that, check the history of this page in the Wiki
or the SVN repository.
</P>

<H3>4.1.3. Setting up the Visual Studio project with CMake</H3>

<P>
To start a command prompt with an environment that both has the VC++ and the OSGeo4W
variables create the following batch file (assuming the above packages were
installed in the default locations):
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
@echo off
path %SYSTEMROOT%\system32;%SYSTEMROOT%;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\Wbem;%PROGRAMFILES%\CMake 2.8\bin;%PROGRAMFILES%\subversion\bin;%PROGRAMFILES%\GnuWin32\bin
set PYTHONPATH=

set VS90COMNTOOLS=%PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\Tools\
call "%PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" x86

set INCLUDE=%INCLUDE%;%PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\include
set LIB=%LIB%;%PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\lib

set OSGEO4W_ROOT=C:\OSGeo4W
call "%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\bin\o4w_env.bat"

@set GRASS_PREFIX=c:/OSGeo4W/apps/grass/grass-6.4.0
@set INCLUDE=%INCLUDE%;%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\include
@set LIB=%LIB%;%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\lib;%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\lib

@cmd
</PRE></div>

<P>
Start the batch file and on the command prompt checkout the QGIS source from
git to the source directory <CODE>Quantum-GIS</CODE>:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
git clone git://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS.git
</PRE></div>

<P>
Create a 'build' directory somewhere. This will be where all the build output
will be generated.
</P>
<P>
Now run <CODE>cmake-gui</CODE> (still from <CODE>cmd</CODE>) and in the <I>Where is the source code:</I>
box, browse to the top level QGIS directory.
</P>
<P>
In the <I>Where to build the binaries:</I> box, browse to the 'build' directory you
created.
</P>
<P>
If the path to bison and flex contains blanks, you need to use the short name
for the directory (i.e. <CODE>C:\Program Files</CODE> should be rewritten to
<CODE>C:\Progra~n</CODE>, where <CODE>n</CODE> is the number as shown in `dir /x C:\``).
</P>
<P>
Verify that the 'BINDINGS_GLOBAL_INSTALL' option is not checked, so that python
bindings are placed into the output directory when you run the INSTALL target.
</P>
<P>
Hit <CODE>Configure</CODE> to start the configuration and select <CODE>Visual Studio 9 2008</CODE>
and keep <CODE>native compilers</CODE> and click <CODE>Finish</CODE>.
</P>
<P>
The configuration should complete without any further questions and allow you to
click <CODE>Generate</CODE>.
</P>
<P>
Now close <CODE>cmake-gui</CODE> and continue on the command prompt by starting
<CODE>vcexpress</CODE>.  Use File / Open / Project/Solutions and open the
qgis-x.y.z.sln File in your project directory.
</P>
<P>
Change <CODE>Solution Configuration</CODE> from <CODE>Debug</CODE> to <CODE>RelWithDebInfo</CODE> (Release
with Debug Info)  or <CODE>Release</CODE> before you build QGIS using the ALL_BUILD
target (otherwise you need debug libraries that are not included).
</P>
<P>
After the build completed you should install QGIS using the INSTALL target.
</P>
<P>
Install QGIS by building the INSTALL project. By default this will install to
c:\Program Files\qgis&lt;version&gt; (this can be changed by changing the
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX variable in cmake-gui). 
</P>
<P>
You will also either need to add all the dependency DLLs to the QGIS install
directory or add their respective directories to your PATH.
</P>

<H3>4.1.4. Packaging</H3>

<P>
To create a standalone installer there is a perl script named 'creatensis.pl'
in 'qgis/ms-windows/osgeo4w'.  It downloads all required packages from OSGeo4W
and repackages them into an installer using NSIS.
</P>
<P>
The script can either be run on Windows, but also can be run on Linux.
</P>
<P>
On Debian/Ubuntu you can just install the 'nsis' package.
</P>
<P>
NSIS for Windows can be downloaded at:
</P>
	<BLOCKQUOTE>
	<A HREF="http://nsis.sourceforge.net">http://nsis.sourceforge.net</A>
	</BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>
And Perl for Windows (including other requirements like 'wget', 'unzip', 'tar'
and 'bzip2') is available at:
</P>
	<BLOCKQUOTE>
	<A HREF="http://cygwin.com">http://cygwin.com</A>
	</BLOCKQUOTE>

<H3>4.1.5. Packaging your own build of QGIS</H3>

<P>
Assuming you have completed the above packaging step, if you want to include
your own hand built QGIS executables, you need to copy them in from your
windows installation into the ms-windows file tree created by the creatensis
script.
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd ms-windows/
rm -rf osgeo4w/unpacked/apps/qgis/*
cp -r /tmp/qgis1.7.0/* osgeo4w/unpacked/apps/qgis/
</PRE></div>

<P>
Now create a package.
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
./quickpackage.sh
</PRE></div>

<P>
After this you should now have a nsis installer containing your own build 
of QGIS and all dependencies needed to run it on a windows machine.
</P>

<H3>4.1.6. Osgeo4w packaging</H3>

<P>
The actual packaging process is currently not documented, for now please take a
look at:
</P>
<P>
<I>ms-windows/osgeo4w/package.cmd</I>
</P>

<A NAME="toc15"></A>
<H2>4.2. Building using MinGW</H2>

<P>
<B>Note:</B> This section might be outdated as nowadays Visual C++ is use to build
the "official" packages.
</P>
<P>
<B>Note:</B> For a detailed account of building all the dependencies yourself you
can visit Marco Pasetti's website here:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://www.webalice.it/marco.pasetti/qgis+grass/BuildFromSource.html">http://www.webalice.it/marco.pasetti/qgis+grass/BuildFromSource.html</A>
</P>
<P>
Read on to use the simplified approach with pre-built libraries...
</P>

<H3>4.2.1. MSYS</H3>

<P>
MSYS provides a unix style build environment under windows. We have created a
zip archive that contains just about all dependencies.
</P>
<P>
Get this: 
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://download.osgeo.org/qgis/win32/msys.zip">http://download.osgeo.org/qgis/win32/msys.zip</A>
</P>
<P>
and unpack to c:\msys
</P>
<P>
If you wish to prepare your msys environment yourself rather than using 
our pre-made one, detailed instructions are provided elsewhere in this
document.
</P>

<H3>4.2.2. Qt</H3>

<P>
Download Qt opensource precompiled edition exe and install (including the
download and install of mingw) from here:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/">http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/</A>
</P>
<P>
When the installer will ask for MinGW, you don't need to download and install
it, just point the installer to c:\msys\mingw
</P>
<P>
When Qt installation is complete:
</P>
<P>
Edit C:\Qt\4.7.0\bin\qtvars.bat and add the following lines:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\msys\local\bin;c:\msys\local\lib 
set PATH=%PATH%;"C:\Program Files\Subversion\bin" 
</PRE></div>

<P>
I suggest you also add C:\Qt\4.7.0\bin\ to your Environment Variables Path in
the windows system preferences.
</P>
<P>
If you plan to do some debugging, you'll need to compile debug version of Qt:
C:\Qt\4.7.0\bin\qtvars.bat compile_debug
</P>
<P>
Note: there is a problem when compiling debug version of Qt 4.7, the script ends with
this message  "mingw32-make: *** No rule to make target `debug'.  Stop.". To 
compile the debug version you have to go out of src directory and execute the
following command:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
c:\Qt\4.7.0 make 
</PRE></div>

<H3>4.2.3. Flex and Bison</H3>

<P>
Get Flex
<A HREF="http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=23617&amp;package_id=16424">http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=23617&amp;package_id=16424</A>
(the zip bin) and extract it into c:\msys\mingw\bin
</P>

<H3>4.2.4. Python stuff (optional)</H3>

<P>
Follow this section in case you would like to use Python bindings for QGIS.  To
be able to compile bindings, you need to compile SIP and PyQt4 from sources as
their installer doesn't include some development files which are necessary.
</P>

<H4>4.2.4.1. Download and install Python - use Windows installer</H4>

<P>
(It doesn't matter to what folder you'll install it)
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://python.org/download/">http://python.org/download/</A>
</P>

<H4>4.2.4.2. Download SIP and PyQt4 sources</H4>

<P>
<A HREF="http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/sip/download">http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/sip/download</A>
<A HREF="http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/download">http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/download</A>
</P>
<P>
Extract each of the above zip files in a temporary directory. Make sure
to get versions that match your current Qt installed version.
</P>

<H4>4.2.4.3. Compile SIP</H4>

<div class="code"><PRE>
c:\Qt\4.7.0\bin\qtvars.bat 
python configure.py -p win32-g++ 
make 
make install 
</PRE></div>

<H4>4.2.4.4. Compile PyQt</H4>

<div class="code"><PRE>
c:\Qt\4.7.0\bin\qtvars.bat 
python configure.py 
make 
make install 
</PRE></div>

<H4>4.2.4.5. Final python notes</H4>

<P>
/!\ You can delete the directories with unpacked SIP and PyQt4 sources after a
successfull install, they're not needed anymore.
</P>

<H3>4.2.5. git</H3>

<P>
In order to check out QGIS sources from the repository, you need a git client.
This installer should work fine:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://msysgit.googlecode.com/files/Git-1.7.4-preview20110204.exe">http://msysgit.googlecode.com/files/Git-1.7.4-preview20110204.exe</A>
</P>

<H3>4.2.6. CMake</H3>

<P>
CMake is build system used by QGIS. Download it from here:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.2-win32-x86.exe">http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.2-win32-x86.exe</A>
</P>

<H3>4.2.7. QGIS</H3>

<P>
Start a cmd.exe window ( Start -&gt; Run -&gt; cmd.exe ) Create development 
directory and move into it
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
md c:\dev\cpp 
cd c:\dev\cpp 
</PRE></div>

<P>
Check out sources from GIT:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
git clone git://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS.git
</PRE></div>

<H3>4.2.8. Compiling</H3>

<P>
As a background read the generic building with CMake notes at the end of 
this document.
</P>
<P>
Start a cmd.exe window ( Start -&gt; Run -&gt; cmd.exe ) if you don't have one
already.  Add paths to compiler and our MSYS environment:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
c:\Qt\4.7.0\bin\qtvars.bat 
</PRE></div>

<P>
For ease of use add c:\Qt\4.7.0\bin\ to your system path in system
properties so you can just type qtvars.bat when you open the cmd console.
Create build directory and set it as current directory:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd c:\dev\cpp\qgis 
md build 
cd build 
</PRE></div>

<H3>4.2.9. Configuration</H3>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cmakesetup ..  
</PRE></div>

<P>
<B>Note:</B> You must include the '..' above.
</P>
<P>
Click 'Configure' button.  When asked, you should choose 'MinGW Makefiles' as
generator.
</P>
<P>
There's a problem with MinGW Makefiles on Win2K. If you're compiling on this
platform, use 'MSYS Makefiles' generator instead.
</P>
<P>
All dependencies should be picked up automatically, if you have set up the
Paths correctly. The only thing you need to change is the installation
destination (CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX) and/or set 'Debug'.
</P>
<P>
For compatibility with NSIS packaging scripts I recommend to leave the install
prefix to its default c:\program files\
</P>
<P>
When configuration is done, click 'OK' to exit the setup utility.
</P>

<H3>4.2.10. Compilation and installation</H3>

<div class="code"><PRE>
 make make install 
</PRE></div>

<H3>4.2.11. Run qgis.exe from the directory where it's installed (CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX)</H3>

<P>
Make sure to copy all .dll:s needed to the same directory as the qgis.exe
binary is installed to, if not already done so, otherwise QGIS will complain
about missing libraries when started.
</P>
<P>
A possibility is to run qgis.exe when your path contains c:\msys\local\bin and
c:\msys\local\lib directories, so the DLLs will be used from that place.
</P>

<H3>4.2.12. Create the installation package: (optional)</H3>

<P>
Download and install NSIS from (<A HREF="http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page">http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page</A>)
</P>
<P>
Now using windows explorer, enter the win_build directory in your QGIS source
tree. Read the READMEfile there and follow the instructions. Next right click
on qgis.nsi and choose the option 'Compile NSIS Script'.

<H1>5. Building on MacOS X</H1>

<P>
In this approach I will try to avoid as much as possible building dependencies
from source and rather use frameworks wherever possible.
</P>
<P>
"Universal", SDK and non-default arch builds require more complex options and
some fiddling with the system. It is best to stick with a single, default,
architecture build and follow these instructions for an initial build.
Included are notes for building on Mac OS X 10.5 (<U>Leopard</U>), 10.6
(<U>Snow Leopard</U>), 10.7 (<U>Lion</U>) and 10.8 (<U>Mt. Lion</U>).
(These names will be used throughout the instructions.)
Make sure to read each section completely before typing the first command you see.
</P>
<P>
<U>General note on Terminal usage:</U>  When I say "cd" to a folder in a Terminal,
it means type "cd " (without the quotes, make sure to type a space after) and
then type the path to said folder, then &lt;return&gt;.  A simple way to do this
without having to know and type the full path is, after type the "cd " part,
drag the folder (use the icon in its window title bar, or drag a folder from
within a window) from the Desktop to the Terminal, then tap &lt;return&gt;.
</P>
<P>
<U>Parallel Compilation:</U> On multiprocessor/multicore Macs, it's possible to
speed up compilation, but it's not automatic.  Whenever you type "make" (but
NOT "make install"), instead type:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
make -j [#cpus]
</PRE></div>

<P>
Replace [#cpus] with the number of cores and/or processors your Mac has.  On recent
models with hyperthreading processors this can be double the physical count of
processors and cores.
</P>
<P>
ie: Mac Pro "8 Core" model (2 quad core processors) = 8
</P>
<P>
ie: Macbook Pro i5 (hyperthreading) = 2 cores X 2 = 4
</P>
<P>
To find out how many CPUs you have available, run the following in Terminal:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
/usr/sbin/sysctl -n hw.ncpu
</PRE></div>

<P>
which can be used in build shell scripts like:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
make -j $(/usr/sbin/sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
</PRE></div>

<P>
<U>Note:</U> if you get an error in parallel compilation, try removing the -j # flag,
so it's just 'make', or using a smaller number.  Sometimes make can hiccup on too
many threads.
</P>

<A NAME="toc18"></A>
<H2>5.1. Install Developer Tools</H2>

<P>
Developer tools are not a part of a standard OS X installation.  Up through
Snow Leopard, the Developer Tools, later called Xcode, were included with the
system install disks, though it's best to download the latest version compatible
with your system to get important updates fixing various issues.
Starting with Lion, Xcode is available as a download and from the App Store.
</P>
<P>
Downloading Xcode/Developer Tools for up through Snow Leopard requires a free developer account at
developer.apple.com.  Up through Snow Leopard, get the latest <U>Xcode</U> that is
supported for your system.  For Lion and above, you can get Xcode from either a
free developer account or for a minimal fee from the app store.
When installing Xcode up through Snow Leopard, make sure to
do a custom install and install the Unix Development or Command Line Tools option.
</P>
<P>
On Lion, if you have installed Xcode 4.0 - 4.2 and are upgrading to 4.3, it's
a good idea to uninstall the old version first with:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools
</PRE></div>

<P>
On Lion and Mt. Lion, using Xcode 4.4+, the developer command line tools can be
installed via the Xcode preferences.
</P>
<P>
Xcode 4.3+ also introduces the clang frontend to the LLVM compiler as default.
</P>
<P>
<B>Note:</B> In XCODE 4.5 installed from the app store, you need to install the
command line tools from XCode -&gt; Preferences -&gt; Downloads and choose command line tools.
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://clang.llvm.org/">http://clang.llvm.org/</A>
</P>
<P>
The supplied clang version 4 can compile QGIS, but presents many warnings
compared to just using LLVM. You can specifically use LLVM by exporting paths to
the compilers in Terminal, or shell scripts, prior to building QGIS:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
export CC=/usr/bin/llvm-gcc
export CXX=/usr/bin/llvm-g++
</PRE></div>

<P>
If you have trouble building some of the dependencies listed below with clang
(e.g. OSG &amp; osgEarth), try using only the LLVM compilers.
</P>

<A NAME="toc19"></A>
<H2>5.2. Install Qt4 from disk image</H2>

<P>
You need a minimum of Qt-4.4.0. I suggest getting the latest (Qt 4, not 5).  There is no need
for the full Qt SDK, so save yourself some download time and get the frameworks
only.  This is available in the Libraries section of the Qt download page.
</P>
<P>
<U>Snow Leopard+ note:</U> If you are building on Snow Leopard+, you will need to
decide between 32-bit support in the older Qt Carbon branch, or 64-bit
support in the Qt Cocoa branch. Appropriate installers are available for both
as of Qt-4.5.2, though they stopped making Carbon packages at Qt 4.7.4.
Qt 4.6+ is recommended for Cocoa.
Starting with Lion, Carbon may not work properly, if at all.
Starting with Qt 4.8, only 64bit Cocoa installers are available.
</P>
<P>
<U>General note:</U> Support for new system versions in any given Qt version may
not be present and may cause a 'This version of Mac OS X
is unsupported' error when building QGIS.  Try the next Qt version.
</P>
<P>
<U>PPC note:</U> The readymade Qt Cocoa installers don't include PPC support, you'd
have to compile Qt yourself.  But, there appear to be issues with Qt Cocoa on
PPC Macs anyways.  Qt Carbon is recommended on PPC Macs.
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://qt-project.org/downloads">http://qt-project.org/downloads</A>
</P>
<P>
If you want debug frameworks, Qt also provides a separate download with these.
These are in addition to the non-debug frameworks.
</P>
<P>
Earlier OS X systems may need an old Qt version - check the requirements of the
current Qt version.  To get old Qt downloads, there is an FTP link at the bottom
of the download page.  Files are in the qt/source (yes, even the binary packages).
</P>
<P>
Once downloaded open the disk image and run the installer. Note you need admin
privileges to install.
</P>
<P>
<U>Leopard+ note:</U> Qt includes a couple non-framework libraries in /usr/lib.
When using a system SDK these libraries will not be found.  To fix this problem,
add symlinks to /usr/local:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libQtUiTools.a /usr/local/lib/
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libQtCLucene.dylib /usr/local/lib/
</PRE></div>

<P>
These should then be found automatically.  Earlier systems
may need some help by adding '-L/usr/local/lib' to CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS,
CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS and CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS in the cmake build.
</P>

<A NAME="toc20"></A>
<H2>5.3. Install CMake for OSX</H2>

<P>
Get the latest source release from here:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html">http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html</A>
</P>
<P>
Binary installers are available for OS X, but they are not recommended
(2.4 versions install in /usr instead of /usr/local, and 2.6+ versions are a
strange application). Instead, download the source.
NOTE: 2.8.5 is broken for detecting part of Qt.  Fixed in 2.8.6.
Double-click the source tarball to unpack it, then cd to the source folder and:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
./bootstrap --docdir=/share/doc/CMake --mandir=/share/man
make -j [#cpus]
sudo make install
</PRE></div>

<H3>5.3.1. Optional setup: ccache</H3>

<P>
<U>Xcode 4.4+ note:</U> You will probably not need to install ccache if you are using
the clang frontend to LLVM compiler, a setup that already provides fairly quick
compile times.
</P>
<P>
Setup ccache to significantly speed up compile times after initial build.
(Switching git branches will again cause longer initial build times unless
separate build directories are used for each branch.)

<P>
Get the latest source release from here:

source folder and:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
./configure
make
sudo make install
</PRE></div>

<P>
After install, symbolically link compilers to /usr/local/bin/ccache.
(Note: this differs from instructions at <A HREF="http://ccache.samba.org/manual.html">http://ccache.samba.org/manual.html</A>
Changing the /usr/bin:/usr/local/bin order in PATH is not recommended on OS X.
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
sudo mkdir /usr/local/bin/compilers &amp;&amp; cd /usr/local/bin/compilers
sudo ln -s ../ccache gcc
sudo ln -s ../ccache g++
sudo ln -s ../ccache cc
sudo ln -s ../ccache c++
</PRE></div>

<P>
Add the following to the end of your ~/.bash_profile (and optionally ~/.bashrc)
to allow your login shell to discover the symbolically linked compilers before
/usr/bin compilers and to easily toggle using ccache off, by commenting out the
line and starting a new login session in Terminal.
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
export PATH=/usr/local/bin/compilers:$PATH
</PRE></div>

<P>
If you have trouble building some of the dependencies listed below (e.g. OSG &amp;
osgEarth), try bypassing ccache.
</P>

<H2>5.4. Install development frameworks for QGIS dependencies</H2>

<P>

</P>
<P>
William provides an additional installer package for Postgresql (for PostGIS
support).  QGIS just needs the libpq client library, so unless you want to
setup the full Postgres + PostGIS server, all you need is the client-only
package.  It's available here:

</P>
<P>
Old versions of these packages for older systems are available in the
software archive section.
</P>

<H3>5.4.1. Additional dependencies: General compatibility note</H3>

<P>
There are some additional dependencies that, at the time of writing, are not
provided as frameworks or installers so we will need to build these from source.
If you are wanting to build QGIS as a 64-bit application, you will need to
provide the appropriate build commands to produce 64-bit support in dependencies.
Likewise, for 32-bit support on Snow Leopard, you will need to override the
default system architecture, which is 64-bit, according to instructions for
individual dependency packages.
</P>
<P>
Stable release versions are preferred.  Beta and other development versions may
have problems and you are on your own with those.
</P>

<H3>5.4.2. Additional dependencies: Expat</H3>

in the system.  This is Python 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7, respectively for Leo, Snow and Lion+.
So there is no need to install Python on Leopard and newer.
You can still install Python from python.org if preferred.

</PRE></div>

<P>
<U>Snow Leopard system Python</U>
</P>
<P>
Similar to Leopard, you should install outside the system Python path.
Also, you need to specify the architecture you want (requires at least SIP
4.9), and make sure to run the versioned python binary (this one responds to
the 'arch' command, 'python' does not).
Substitute '2.7' for python version and 10.7 for SDK version below for Lion.

PyQt wants to install in the system path -- this is not a good idea.
More configuration is needed to install outside the system path:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
python configure.py -d /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages -b /usr/local/bin -n /usr/local/Qt4.8/qsci -v /usr/local/share/sip/PyQt4
</PRE></div>

<P>
<U>Snow Leopard system Python</U>
</P>
<P>
Similar to Leopard, you should install outside the system Python path.
Also, you need to specify the architecture you want (requires at least PyQt 4.6),
and make sure to run the versioned python binary (this one responds to the
'arch' command, which is important for pyuic4, 'python' does not).
Substitute '2.7' for python version and 10.7 for SDK version below for Lion.
</P>
<P>
If you are using 32-bit Qt (Qt Carbon):
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
python2.6 configure.py -d /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages -b /usr/local/bin \

<P>
If there is a problem with undefined symbols in QtOpenGL on Leopard, edit
QtOpenGL/makefile and add -undefined dynamic_lookup to LFLAGS.
Then make again.
</P>

<H3>5.4.8. Additional dependencies: QScintilla2 Python Module</H3>

<P>
This will create the Qsci.so module in /Library/Python/2.x/site-packages/PyQt4.
Like PyQt, it needs help to not install in system locations.
</P>
<P>
<U>Snow Leopard:</U> substitute '2.6' for Python version

<H3>5.4.9. Additional dependencies: Qwt</H3>

<P>
The GPS tracking feature uses Qwt.
</P>
<P>
NOTE: PyQwt is not compatible with PyQt 4.9, so we will skip that.
</P>
<P>
Download the latest Qwt 6.0 source (6.1 does not work with the QwtPolar in QGIS) from:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://sourceforge.net/projects/qwt">http://sourceforge.net/projects/qwt</A>
</P>
<P>
Double-click the tarball to unpack it. Now, cd to the qwt source folder in a
Terminal.
</P>
<P>
Type these commands to build and install 6.0.x (assumes v6.0.2, adjust commands
for other version as needed):
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>

</PRE></div>

<P>
The Qwt shared library is now installed in /usr/local/qwt-6.0.x (x is
the point version).  Remember this for QGIS configuration.
</P>

<H3>5.4.10. Additional dependencies: Bison</H3>

<P>
The version of bison available by default on Mac OS X is too old so you
need to get a more recent one on your system. Download at least version 2.4 from:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bison/
</PRE></div>

<P>
Now build and install it to a prefix of /usr/local. Double-click the source
tarball to unpack it, then cd to the source folder and:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
./configure --disable-dependency-tracking CFLAGS=-Os
make
sudo make install
</PRE></div>

<H3>5.4.11. Additional dependencies: gpsbabel</H3>

<P>
For integrated GPS Tools functions, a gpsbabel executable is required. You can
find this at:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://www.gpsbabel.org/">http://www.gpsbabel.org/</A>
</P>
<P>
Download the GPSBabel OS X package, and copy GPSBabelFE.app from the disk image to
/Applications.
</P>

<H3>5.4.12. Optional dependencies: libfcgi</H3>

<P>
If you want to use the QGIS Mapserver, you need libfcgi.  This is included on
systems up through Snow Leopard, but was dropped at Lion.  So, on Lion you need
to get the source from:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/">http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/</A>
</P>
<P>
Grab the latest fcgi SNAP package there. Double-click the source
tarball to unpack it, then cd to the source folder and:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
./configure --disable-dependency-tracking CFLAGS=-Os
make
sudo make install
</PRE></div>

<H3>5.4.13. Optional dependencies: OSG &amp; osgEarth</H3>

<P>
If you want the Globe plugin in QGIS (default OFF), OSG and osgEarth are needed.
</P>
<P>
First, <B>OpenSceneGraph</B>.  The main site is very out of date, just go to
github:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://github.com/openscenegraph/osg/tags">http://github.com/openscenegraph/osg/tags</A>
</P>
<P>
Download the latest 3.1 version (you can select a tarball when you hover over
the entry).  Double-click the source tarball to unpack it.
(There is a version numbering oddity in the source, but since we'll be
bundling OSG as it's meant to be, it really doesn't matter).
</P>
<P>
Installation is a bit out of touch with OS X standards, so we'll stage it to a
temporary location first.  You could stage it to the folder that the OSG source
folder is in, or a common staging area like /Users/Shared/unix/osg.  Pick a
folder not hidden and that doesn't need admin permissions to write to for simplicity.
</P>
<P>
If you are building on Leopard, its configure forces a old ppc/i386 32bit build.
If you want 64bit you need to fix CMakeLists.txt - in a text editor, find the
if-block that starts with:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
ELSEIF(${OSG_OSX_SDK_NAME} STREQUAL "macosx10.6" OR ${OSG_OSX_SDK_NAME} STREQUAL "macosx10.5")
</PRE></div>

<P>
In that section before the next ELSEIF, change:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
ppc;i386
</PRE></div>

<P>
to:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
i386;x86_64
</PRE></div>

<P>
and change:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
mmacosx-version-min=10.5
</PRE></div>

<P>
to:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
mmacosx-version-min=10.6
</PRE></div>

<P>
In a new Terminal cd to the source folder and:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/some/staging/folder \

make install
sudo mkdir -p "/Library/Application Support/OpenSceneGraph/PlugIns"
</PRE></div>

<P>
Open the staging folder you chose for the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX option above.
</P>
<P>
Now move all .frameworks from the lib/ folder in the staging area to /Library/Frameworks.  Move the files in the osgPlugins folder in the lib/ folder
to /Library/Application Support/OpenSceneGraph/PlugIns.  The bin/ executables
can be left where they are.
</P>
<P>
Next up is <B>libzip</B>.  Get the latest tarball at:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://nih.at/libzip/">http://nih.at/libzip/</A>
</P>
<P>
Double-click the source tarball to unpack it.
In a new Terminal cd to the source folder and:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
./configure --disable-dependency-tracking --disable-shared CFLAGS=-Os
make
sudo make install
</PRE></div>

<P>
Then it's time for <B>osgEarth</B>.  Downloads are also on github:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://github.com/gwaldron/osgearth/tags">http://github.com/gwaldron/osgearth/tags</A>
</P>
<P>
Download a tarball for the latest stable release (sorting can be confusing here).
Double-click the source tarball to unpack it.
</P>
<P>
<U>Note:</U> for now stick with version 2.3.  There are compile errors in 2.4 that need attention.
</P>
<P>
This one also needs an intermediate staging area.  Choose a folder similar to OSG.
</P>
<P>
In a new Terminal cd to the source folder and:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
mkdir build
cd build
export PATH="/path/to/osg/staging/folder/bin:$PATH"
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/some/staging/folder \
-D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=MinSizeRel \
-D OSGEARTH_BUILD_FRAMEWORKS=true \
..
make
make install
sudo mkdir -p "/Library/Application Support/OpenSceneGraph/Headers"
</PRE></div>

<P>
Open the staging folder you chose for the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX option above.
Also open the OSG staging path /bin folder from the OSG build.
</P>
<P>
Move all the .frameworks from the lib/ folder to /Library/Frameworks.
Move the files in the osgPlugins folder in the lib/ folder to
/Library/Application Support/OpenSceneGraph/PlugIns.  Move the osgEarthDrivers
folder in the include/ folder to /Library/Application Support/OpenSceneGraph/Headers.
(you may need to create this folder)
And as for OSG, you can leave the bin/ executables where they are.
</P>

<A NAME="toc22"></A>
<H2>5.5. API documentation</H2>

<P>
If you want to build a local copy of the API docs (like those at
<A HREF="http://doc.qgis.org/api">http://doc.qgis.org/api</A>) you will need Graphviz and Doxygen installed:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://www.graphviz.org/Download_macos.php">http://www.graphviz.org/Download_macos.php</A>
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/download.html">http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/download.html</A>
</P>
<P>
Graphviz is simply installed via a regular Mac package installer. Install it
first. It will place some of its binaries in /usr/local/bin/.
</P>
<P>
For Doxygen, compiling the source is recommended over installing the app.
Double-click the source tarball to unpack it, then cd to the source folder and:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
./configure
make -j [#cpus]
sudo make install
</PRE></div>

<P>
The documentation will be output to the build directory, and if using more complete
QGIS.app bundling on install, inside the app in:
</P>
<P>
QGIS.app/Contents/Resources/doc
</P>

<A NAME="toc23"></A>
<H2>5.6. QGIS source</H2>

<P>
Unzip the QGIS source tarball to a working folder of your choice
(/usr/somewhere is not a good choice as it's hidden and requires root
privileges).  If you are reading this from the source, you've already done
this.
</P>
<P>
If you want to experiment with the latest development sources, go to the github
QGIS project page:
</P>
<P>
<A HREF="http://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS">http://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS</A>
</P>
<P>
It should default to the master branch.  Click the <U>Downloads</U> button and
select <U>Download .tar.gz</U>. Double-click the tarball to unzip it.
</P>
<P>
<I>Alternatively</I>, install git from <A HREF="http://git-scm.com">http://git-scm.com</A> and do the following.
</P>
<P>
Make a specific repository directory somewhere, e.g. ~/QGIS/Quantum-GIS, and cd
into it. The following will read-only clone the master branch to the directory:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
git init
git remote add -f -t master -m master qgisupstream git://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS.git
git merge qgisupstream

</PRE></div>

<A NAME="toc24"></A>
<H2>5.7. Configure the build</H2>

<P>
CMake supports out of source build so we will create a 'build' dir for the
build process. OS X uses ${HOME}/Applications as a standard user app folder (it
gives it the system app folder icon).  If you have the correct permissions you
may want to build straight into your /Applications folder. The instructions
below assume you are building into a ${HOME}/Applications directory.
</P>
<P>
You have two interactive options for configuring the build: ccmake or run
Terminal commands. ccmake is a curses interface inside Terminal for CMake and
allows a tabular layout for viewing and editing ALL available QGIS source CMake
options. To get started initially run the Terminal method.
</P>
<P>
In a Terminal cd to the qgis source folder previously downloaded, then:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Applications \
-D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=MINSIZEREL -D ENABLE_TESTS=FALSE \
-D WITH_INTERNAL_SPATIALITE=FALSE -D WITH_PYSPATIALITE=FALSE \
-D SPATIALINDEX_LIBRARY=/usr/local/lib/libspatialindex.dylib \
-D SPATIALINDEX_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/include/spatialindex \
-D QWT_LIBRARY=/usr/local/qwt-6.0.2/lib/libqwt.dylib \
-D QWT_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/qwt-6.0.2/include \
-D BISON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/local/bin/bison \
..
</PRE></div>

<P>
<U>Note:</U> Don't forget the .. on the last line, which tells CMake to look for the
source files in one directory up.
</P>
<P>
After the initial Terminal configure, you can use ccmake to make further changes:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd build
ccmake ..
</PRE></div>

<P>
This will automatically find and use the previously installed frameworks, and
the GRASS application if installed.  Remember to change the Qwt version if a
different version was installed, and possibly paths, e.g. for Qwt 6.0.2 installed
as a framework use:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
-D QWT_LIBRARY=/usr/local/qwt-6.0.2/lib/qwt.framework/qwt \
-D QWT_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/qwt-6.0.2/lib/qwt.framework/Headers \
</PRE></div>

<P>
If you want to use a newer PostgreSQL client than the default Mac OS X version,
e.g. install from kyngchaos.com, set the following option to pg_config's path:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
-D POSTGRES_CONFIG=/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_config \

<U>Mapserver note:</U> The QGIS Mapserver feature requires fastcgi support.  This is included in
Leopard and Snow Leopard, but was dropped at Lion.  To build the Mapserver
component on Leopard and Snow, add the following line before the last line in
the above configuration:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
-D WITH_MAPSERVER=TRUE \

<P>
On Lion you are on your own to figure out how to install libfcgi and add fcgi
support to the system Apache.  Not recommended for the average user.
</P>
<P>
<U>Globe plugin note:</U> If you want the Globe plugin (and you compiled and installed OSG/osgEarth),
add the following lines before the last line in the above configuration:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
-D WITH_GLOBE=true \
-D OSGEARTH_INCLUDE_DIR="/Library/Application Support/OpenSceneGraph/Headers" \
-D OSG_PLUGINS_PATH="/Library/Application Support/OpenSceneGraph/PlugIns" \
</PRE></div>

<P>
<U>Bundling note:</U> Older Qt versions may have problems with some Qt plugins and
QGIS.  The way to handle this is to bundle Qt inside the QGIS application.  The
default is to bundle Qt (and osg/osgEarth, if configured).
</P>
<P>
Even better for distribution purposes, to also bundle any extra non-framework,
non-standard, libs (ie postgres' libpq) set the bundle value to 2:

<H1>7. Setting up a Jenkins Build Server</H1>

<P>
<B>Assumption:</B> You know how to make a working build environment and want to
deploy it under Jenkins for continuous integration testing now.
</P>
<P>
These notes are terse, I will expand on them later as the need arises. The 
procedure is:
</P>

<UL>
<LI>Install Jenkins and get it configured according to your own preferences
<LI>Make sure you have the git, github, junit etc plugins installed. A complete
  list of the plugins I have installed follows (note that you almost certainly
  don't need evey plugin listed here):
 <UL>
 <LI>External Monitor Job Type Plugin
 <LI>LDAP Plugin
 <LI>pam-auth
 <LI>javadoc
 <LI>ant
 <LI>Jenkins Subversion Plug-in
 <LI>Git Plugin
 <LI>Maven 2 Project Plugin
 <LI>Jenkins SLOCCount Plug-in
 <LI>Jenkins Sounds plugin
 <LI>Jenkins Translation Assistance plugin
 <LI>ruby-runtime
 <LI>Jenkins CVS Plug-in
 <LI>Coverage/Complexity Scatter Plot PlugIn
 <LI>Status Monitor Plugin
 <LI>Git Parameter Plug-In
 <LI>github-api
 <LI>GitHub plugin
 <LI>Jenkins Violations plugin
 <LI>git-notes Plugin
 <LI>Twitter plugin
 <LI>Jenkins Cobertura Plugin
 <LI>Jenkins Gravatar plugin
 <LI>Jenkins SSH Slaves plugin
 </UL>
<LI>Create a Job called 'QGIS'
<LI>Use the following options for your job:
 <UL>
 <LI>Job Name: QGIS
 <LI>Job Type: Build a free-style software project
 <LI>Tick enable project based security (you need to elsewhere configure your
   Jenkins security to per project settings)
 <LI>Allow Anonymous user Read and Discover access
 <LI>Set the github project to <A HREF="https://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS/">https://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS/</A>
 <LI>Set source code management to Git
 <LI>Set repository url to git://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS.git
 <LI>In advanced repository url settings set refspec to : 
 <P></P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
+refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
</PRE></div>

 <P></P>
 <LI>Set branch to build to master
 <LI>Repository Browser: Auto
 <LI>Build triggers: set to Poll SCM and set schedule to <CODE>* * * * *</CODE> (polls every minute)
 <LI>Build - Execute shell and set shell script to:
 <P></P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
  cd build
  cmake ..
  xvfb-run --auto-servernum --server-num=1 \
           --server-args="-screen 0 1024x768x24" \
           make Experimental || true
  if [ -f Testing/TAG ] ; then
     xsltproc ../tests/ctest2junix.xsl \
       Testing/`head -n 1 &lt; Testing/TAG`/Test.xml &gt; \
       CTestResults.xml
  fi
</PRE></div>

 <P></P>
 <LI>Add Junit post build action and set 'Publish Junit test result report' to:
   <CODE>build/CTestResults.xml</CODE>
 <LI>Email notification: Send separate e-mails to individuals who broke the build
 <LI>Jenkins sounds - set up sounds for Failure, Success and Unstable.
 <LI>Save
 </UL>
<P></P>
Now open the Job dash board and push something to QGIS and wait a minute to
validate automated builds work.
<P></P>
<B>Note:</B> You will need to log in to the Jenkins user account and go to
/var/lib/jenkins/jobs/QGIS/workspace, then make a <CODE>build</CODE> directory and run
the initial cmake setup and then do test build. This process is the same as
described elsewhere in this doc.
<P></P>
I based some of the set up from this nice blog article here:

<H1>8. Debug output and running tests</H1>

<P>
If you are interested in seeing embedded debug output, change the following
CMake option:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
-D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=DEBUG (or RELWITHDEBINFO)
</PRE></div>

<P>
This will flood your terminal or system log with lots of useful output from
QgsDebugMsg() calls in source code.
</P>
<P>
If you would like to run the test suite, you will need to do so from the build
directory, as it will not work with the installed/bundled app. First set the
CMake option to enable tests:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
-D ENABLE_TESTS=TRUE
</PRE></div>

<P>
Then run all tests from build directory:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd build
make test
</PRE></div>

<P>
To run all tests and report to <A HREF="http://dash.orfeo-toolbox.org/index.php?project=QGIS">http://dash.orfeo-toolbox.org/index.php?project=QGIS</A>
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd build
make Experimental
</PRE></div>

<P>
You can define the host name reported via 'make Experimental' by setting a CMake
option:
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
-D SITE="my.domain.org"
</PRE></div>

<P>
To run specific test(s) (see 'man ctest'):
</P>

<div class="code"><PRE>
cd build
# show listing of tests, without running them
ctest --show-only

# run specific C++ or Python test(s) matching a regular expression
ctest --verbose --tests-regex SomeTestName
</PRE></div>
