Mali Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 Hello, is there a way to use SystemC under MAC os? I've tried a few options and I can't get it, could someone give me a little guide? best regards Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maehne Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 Yes, you can simply download and build the proof-of-concept implementation of SystemC by following the contained INSTALL instructions. You just need to install Xcode and its command line tools. Instead of the GNU-autotools-based build system, you may also use CMake to set up the build. You can display VCD trace files with GTKwave.

David Black Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 With the advent of OSX 10.14.x Mojave and OSX 10.15.x Catalina, it becomes a little more complicated because you will need to give permissions to the tools (requires admin privileges), but it is fairly straightforward. If you find the OSX installation too challenging you could try a Docker installation of Ubuntu or a Virtual Machine (VM) such as VirtualBox with Ubuntu. Personally, I am using Mojave and the Cmake install quite successfully. Being a bit old school, I use MacVim (GVim for Mac) as my text editor, and iTerm for my terminal.

Mali Posted April 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 Thank you for the information. I am a new Mac user and would therefore like to try it out. I have problems with the terminal and may be grateful for the commands I have to enter :). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Black Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 Instructions are in the README and should be clear enough. Let me know which instruction is puzzling. OSX uses a simple bash shell by default, unless you are on Catalina. Which version of OSX are you on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
