[Opensim-users] Building on OSX

[Paul Fishwick]

I had problems with this too. For me, the following seemed to work:

1. Install XCode  first (the development environment)

    http://developer.apple.com/TOOLS/Xcode/

2. Install Mac Ports (great for getting unix utils)

    http://www.macports.org/

3. Using Mac ports at a screen, "port install nant"

    I found that this automatically brings in mono as well as nant, if I 
recall correctly.
