This repository contains the official repository of SolveSpace.

Binary packages for Ubuntu trusty and later versions are available in ~whitequark/solvespace PPA.

Binary packages for Mac OS X are available via GitHub releases.

See below.

You will need CMake, libpng, zlib, json-c, fontconfig, gtkmm 2.4, pangomm 1.4, OpenGL and OpenGL GLU. On a Debian derivative (e.g. Ubuntu) these can be installed with:

apt-get install libpng12-dev libjson-c-dev libfontconfig1-dev \
                libgtkmm-2.4-dev libpangomm-1.4-dev libgl-dev libglu-dev \
                libglew-dev cmake

After that, build SolveSpace as following:

mkdir cbuild
cd cbuild
cmake ..
make
sudo make install

A fully functional port to GTK3 is available, but not recommended for use due to bugs in this toolkit.

You will need CMake and a Windows cross-compiler. On a Debian derivative (e.g. Ubuntu) these can be installed with:

apt-get install mingw-w64 cmake

Before building, check out the submodules:

git submodule update --init

After that, build 32-bit SolveSpace as following:

mkdir cbuild
cd cbuild
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../cmake/Toolchain-mingw32.cmake ..
make solvespace

Or, build 64-bit SolveSpace as following:

mkdir cbuild
cd cbuild
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../cmake/Toolchain-mingw64.cmake ..
make solvespace

The application is built as cbuild/src/solvespace.exe.

Space Navigator support will not be available.

You will need XCode tools, CMake and libpng. Assuming you use homebrew, these can be installed with:

brew install cmake libpng

XCode has to be installed via AppStore; it requires a free Apple ID.

After that, build SolveSpace as following:

mkdir cbuild
cd cbuild
cmake ..
make

The app bundle is built in cbuild/src/solvespace.app.

You will need cmake and Visual C++.

You will also need to check out the git submodules.

After installing them, create a directory build in the source tree and point cmake-gui to the source tree and that directory. Press "Configure" and "Generate", then open build\solvespace.sln with Visual C++ and build it.
