homebrew-openfpm

This repository contains the homebrew formula for OpenFPM and it dependencies.

Installation

brew tap abhinavsns/homebrew-openfpm
brew install openfpm

After successful compilation, we have to create the example.mk file in the $HOME folder as .ofpexample.mk. This can be done by running create_brew.mk.sh from the repo. In a future release this will be eliminated via CMake:

and can be configured using the CMake command that brew outputs during the installation.

Whenever compiling an OpenFPM example, please edit the makefile to modify the line include example.mk with include ~/.ofpexample.mk. The source code used for compilation can be retreived from $HOME/Library/Caches/Homebrew/openfpm--git

Only tested on MacOS Sonoma with Xcode 15 toolchain. Compiles the latest develop branch of OpenFPM.

Useful Information

After successful compilation, it creates the example.mk file in the $HOME folder as .ofpexample.mk. Whenever compiling an OpenFPM example, please edit the makefile to modify the line include example.mk with include ~/.ofpexample.mk During the install, brew outputs the cmake command that could be used to reconfigure the retreived source.

Sourcing environment variables is not required for an homebrew installation.
