Compiling and Installing

Compiling libmei should be fairly straightforward.

Mac

On a Mac, open the attached libmei.xcodeproj file in XCode 4+. You will notice that there are a number of build targets. Select the mei target to build the framework. Compile by clicking Build in the Product menu.

After compiling, you should copy the product to the system-wide Frameworks folder so that it can be found by other software. Go to the Project navigator (in the left pane), expand the Products folder, right click mei.framework and select Show in Finder. Copy the mei.framework file into /Library/Frameworks.

You may also select the mei_test target to build and run the tests. In order to run the tests, you will need to download the Google Test Framework (gtest).

Linux

• uuid-dev
