Thread: Mac OS X Install GCC C/C++ Compiler, Make and Configure To Compile Programs

Hello all,

I've downloaded tar.ball and tried to compile it but it look like Apple ships OS X without gcc c/c++ compiler? How do I install the one? Has any one tried to compile open source software under Apple OS X?

Yup,

Apple does not ship with compiler. You need to install the Apple Developer Tools. XCODE is needed.

Here.

Tools

You mat need to register.

Once tools are installed you will see:

Code:

[jasonralph@shine[~]# gcc
gcc         gcc-4.0     gcc-4.2     gccmakedep  
[jasonralph@shine[~]# gcc
