Installing hlhdf on Mac OSX #1

Open adokter opened 8 years ago

adokter commented 8 years ago

Instead of using node-installer, I found it to be easier to install RAVE from git directly, as documented in the wiki

On Mac OSX, one edit needed to be made in the package directory of hlhdf: the file def.mk in the root directory of the hlhdf package, the LDSHARED variable had to be changed from -bundle into -dynamiclib. Anders, could the make script be adjusted to make this happen automatically (just like other OSX-specific checks)

Anders: This is not something we are currently supporting. Node-installer has been developed for linux. I maybe could do something about it later on but I have serious problems testing the compability :)

We need to make a patch ourselves, and send the commits to Anders as a diff

This patch on configure.ac in the hlhdf repo works for @adokter:
