Murasaki Project: Backup of GMV(No. 8)

GMV is a comparative genome browser for Murasaki. GMV visualizes anchors from Murasaki, annotation data from GenBank files, and expression / prediction score from GFF files.

GMV works on any platform which has GTK+-2.10 or later. Currently, MacOS X, FreeBSD and Linux are supported. Also, experimental build for Microsoft Windows is available.

Requirements †

MacOS X (10.4 or later)
- Requirement: X11.app & Latest GTK+
- For MacOS X 10.4 users, X11.app is available in MacOS X installation DVD. For MacOS X 10.5 users, available pre-installed (but I recommend to install XQuartz to update X11.app!).
- Packaged GTK+ is available from the table above. or if you have MacPorts, you can install GTK+ by yourself.
Microsoft Windows (Windows2000, XP and maybe Vista)
- Windows binary may be unstable, sorry...
- Requirement: GTK+-2.0.11 package from GladeWin32 project
  - Download GTK+ 2.10.11 package from sourceforge

Build Instruction †

First, make sure you have:

GNU g++ 4.0 (other C++ compilers may work, but I'm not sure)
GTK+ 2.10 or later, which can be detected by: pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0
GNU make (BSD make can't build GMV) Then unpack gmv.tar.gz and edit Gmv.conf.

$ tar xzf gmv.tar.gz
$ cd gmv
$ vi Gmv.conf

Important lines are:

CC = ccache g++-4.0
CC_WINDOWS = g++

# CFLAGS += -DUSE_GLIB_REGEX

Set CC to your C++ compiler (if you're trying to build on MinGW, set CC_WINDOWS instead.) Also, you may have to uncomment CFLAGS += -DUSE_GLIB_REGEX, if your system doesn't have regex.h (I believe most Unix based system have this, but at least, MinGW doesn't.)

Then, just type

$ make

and you'll get the binary "gmv" in current directory. Move it anywhere you like (maybe somewhere in your PATH) and launch gmv.

To get stripped (and Universal one on MacOS X) binary, type

$ make RELEASE=yes

Stripped binary will be much smaller (and maybe faster) than normal build.
