How To Install The Gnat Gps For Mac
Native GNAT Programming Studio for OSX
Project files and GNAT tools¶ The projects used by GNAT Studio are the same as the ones used by GNAT: all command-line GNAT tools are project aware. Projects files are text (with the extension.gpr), which you can edit with any text editor or through GNAT Studio’s interface. GNAT Studio can load any project file, even those you created or edited manually, and you can manually edit project files created by GNAT Studio. Download GNAT Community Edition. For free software developers, hobbyists, and students.
Overview
This repository contains the source code of the GNAT Programming Studio, modified to bebuilt against gtk-quartz, the native GTK backend for OSX. For a list of changes, see thewebsite. You can also download a binary there. This is a personal project,I am not affiliated with AdaCore.
Prerequisites
In order to be able to build GPS on your Mac, you need to have:
GNAT Compiler
You can use either GNAT GPL 2013 from AdaCore's libre site or the version includedin FSF's GCC. GNAT GPL 2013 is the default. Either way, make sure the bin
directory of your GNAT installation is included in your PATH
.
GTK-Quartz (jhbuild) Toolchain
This will probably be tricky to set up. If you're lucky, it will work at first try, but experiencetells that usually, something's broken on the way. Anyway, follow the instructions onlive.gnome.org to build it. Here's a short version:
- Install XCode from the AppStore, launch it, install the command line tools from thePreferences panel.
- Download and execute gtk-osx-setup.sh
- Add
~/.local/bin
to yourPATH
. - Execute:
GPS embeds Python, so we compile python itself here (linking to the system's python causes fartoo much problems) and then build meta-gtk-osx-python for pyGObject and pyGtk.
Dependencies
Download the following source packages from AdaCore's libre site:
- xmlada-for-gps-5.2.1-src.tgz
- gtkada-for-gps-5.2.1-src.tgz
After unpacking the sources, you need to build and install them as part of your jhbuild toolchain.To do that, start a jhbuild shell with jhbuild shell
and execute these commands in bothdirectories:
Building GPS
If you use GNAT FSF, start with:
You don't need to do that for GNAT GPL 2013. You can then build gps with:
This will build and install gps.
Running GPS directly
If everything worked properly, you should be able to launch gps with
(You need the GPR_PROJECT_PATH
if you plan to link against installed GPRBuildprojects like GtkAda.)
Building the app bundle
After building GPS, navigate into the bundle
folder and execute
This should create the bundle. To be able to do this, you need to have the latestgtk-mac-bundler from git installed (the current stable version mentioned on the site won't work).
This requires GNAT_KIND
to be defined as shown above if you're using GNAT FSF.
What else can be done
To provide more integration into OSX (= using the default OSX menu bar), GtkOSXApplication would needto be added to GtkAda, and GPS would need to be patched to use it. Fast and furious 8 in hindi download filmywap. I certainly won't do this, but ifanyone has a lot of time at hand..
It might also be possible to create a jhbuild module to further automate the process of buildingGPS. But as the build needs a compiler jhbuild does not know about and considering the other issuesand fixes that need to be applied, I think it's better to keep this stuff here in a separaterepository.
