How to compile FreeFem++ on MacOSX

october 2015

The version 3.41 is compiled Under Yosemite (10.10.5), xcode 7.0.1 + previous install of latex and with other brew install

Add installer Intel ifort compiler (ifort version 15.0.2 with mkl), build mpich, libgsl, hdf5

The configure option used for all softwares are:

mpich-3.1.4: ./configure 'FC=ifort' 'F77=ifort' '-prefix=/usr/local/ff++/mpich'
gsl-1.16 ./configure 'CC=clang' '--prefix=/usr/local/ff++/mpich/'
hdf5-1.8.14 ./configure '--enable-cxx' 'CC=clang' 'CXX=clang++' '--prefix=/usr/local/ff++/mpich'
PETSc ./configure '--CFLAGS=-O2' '--COPTFLAGS=-O3' '--CXXFLAGS=-O2 -std=c++11' \
	'--CXXOPTFLAGS=-O3' '--FFLAGS=-O2' '--FOPTFLAGS=-O3' '--download-fftw' \
	'--download-hypre' '--download-metis' '--download-ml' '--download-mumps' \
	'--download-parmetis' '--download-ptscotch' '--download-scalapack' \
	'--download-suitesparse' '--download-superlu' '--prefix=/usr/local/ff++/mpich/petsc' \
	'--with-blas-lapack-lib=-L/opt/intel/mkl/lib -lmkl_intel_lp64 -lmkl_intel_lp64 -lmkl_sequential -lmkl_core -lmkl_sequential -lm -lpthread' '--with-mpi-dir=/usr/local/ff++/mpich' 'PETSC_ARCH=arch-ff++'
FreeFem++: ./configure '--prefix=/usr/local/ff++/mpich/3.41' '--enable-download' '--enable-optim' '--enable-m64' \
	'F77=ifort' 'FC=ifort' '--enable-maintainer-mode' '--with-mkl=/opt/intel/mkl/lib' \
	'--with-petsc=/usr/local/ff++/mpich/petsc/lib/petsc/conf/petscvariables' '-with-hdf5=/usr/local/ff++/mpich/bin/h5cc' \
	'--with-gsl-prefix=/usr/local/ff++/mpich/' '--disable-pastix'

501  brew install automake
504  brew install cmake
505  brew install gfortran
506  brew install gcc
540  brew install m4
585  brew install pkg-config
588  brew install gobject-introspection

LateX is install form https://tug.org/mactex/mactex-download.html.

To compile a full version of FreeFem++ under MacOS

Under Yosemite (10.10.2, xcode 6.2 form scratch)

• install Xcode, do clang to install command line
• With brew install

  499  brew install wget
  500  brew install autoconf
  501  brew install automake
  504  brew install cmake
  505  brew install gfortran
  506  brew install gcc
  540  brew install m4
  585  brew install pkg-config
  588  brew install gobject-introspection

• Install brew

Under Mavericks (10.9, xcode 5.0.2 form scratch)

• Install Xcode 5.0.2, and the xcode command line tools, install Auxiliary Tools for Xcode (for PackageMaker)

• Install Xcode command line

  xcode-select --install

• Install gcc-4.9 form http://hpc.sourceforge.net

  curl -O http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/hpc/gfortran-4.9-bin.tar.gz?download
  sudo tar zxvf gfortran-4.9-bin.tar.gz -C /

• Install autoconf and automake (not in Xcode)

  I use the macport distribution form http://www.macports.org

  sudo port install autoconf
  sudo port install automake

  Or with brew tool

4. Install TeX from ctan

5. Install openmpi form the source

   ./configure 'CC=clang' 'CXX=clang++' 'FC=gfortran' 'F77=gfortran' --enable-ltdl-convenience
   make
   sudo make install

6. Install gsl

   curl -O http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gsl/gsl-1.15.tar.gz
   tar zxvf gsl-1.15.tar.gz
   cd gsl-1.15.
   ./configure CC=clang
   make
   sudo make install

7. Install git from the web https://sourceforge.net/projects/git-osx-installer/

8. Download the sources

   git clone git@github.com:FreeFem/FreeFem-sources.git

9. Compile FreeFem++

   cd FreeFem-sources
   ./configure '-with-suffix=macos-10.9' '-without-fltk' '--enable-download' '--enable-optim' 'MPIRUN=/usr/local/bin/mpirun' '--enable-m64' '--without-x' 'CC=clang' 'CXXFLAGS=-std=c++11' 'CXX=clang++' 'F77=/usr/local/bin/gfortran' 'FC=/usr/local/bin/gfortran' 'MPICXX=/usr/local/bin/mpic++' 'MPICC=/usr/local/bin/mpicc' 'MPIFC=/usr/local/bin/mpif90' 'MPIF77=/usr/local/bin/mpif90' '--enable-maintainer-mode'
   make
   sudo make install
