static libs for Mac

[bird]

Sorry for the beginner post:

I'm a newbie used to the comforts of an IDE like XCode and would like to use Poco as static libraries instead of shared. If it's possible could someone show me how? I have no experience at all using Make... I assume the build->config->Darwin file needs to be edited but I'm not sure what settings to change to create the static libraries.

Thanks

it's ok, that's exactly how every single one of us started ;-)

This is is the document about POCO build system:

http://www.appinf.com/poco/wiki/tiki-index.php?page=BuildSystem

As for XCode, you may want to go to Apple developer forums for that.

There are two ways to achieve that:

1) edit $POCO_BASE/build/config/Darwin

replace the line

Code: Select all


LINKMODE = SHARED


with the line

Code: Select all


LINKMODE = STATIC


2) Alternatively

Code: Select all


cd $POCO_BASE/Foundation
make -s all_static


Repeat for all libs (XML, Util, Net)
