compile dcmtk on snow leopard Mac Os X10.6

[Jisung]

I've been trying to install dcmtk on my Mac, but I received following errors.

I've checked some posts, and some people have suggested adding -D_DARWIN_C_SOURCE to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS in Makefile.def. After I made these changes and run autoall, I get the following message.

ircci-macpro9:~ justin$ /sw/src/fink.build/dcmtk-3.5.4-1002/dcmtk-3.5.4/config/autoall
autoheader: `configure.ac' or `configure.in' is required
autoconf: no input file
autom4te: confmod.in: no such file or directory

Anyone can help me out on this?
I appreciate any kind of suggestions.

Hi,

first read through this related thread.

Best regards,

The fink package for dcmtk (dcmtk-3.5.4-1004) now works correctly in Mac OS X 10.6

http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/dcmtk

Currently, this is 3.5.4-only though.

Cheers,

Hi,

I am currently looking at Mac compilation of the latest version. Within the next days the latest DCMTK version will compile again out of the box .

By the way, thanks for providing the Fink package Bernd

Best regards,

So does this mean that there'll be no OSX-specific patches necessary? I have to check out the snapshot once this is ready (and then maybe create a new fink package for it, should then be quite easy )

You're welcome I was kind of late updating the package, considering that 10.6 has been out for some time now...

Hi Bernd,

Yes, should work out of the box without any patches . I guess it's already working fine for compiling with configure/make but I did not explicitly test. For CMake I will make the adoptions necessary.

Best regards,
