Configuring the FBX SDK for Mac OS

Downloading and installing the FBX SDK

To download and install the FBX SDK for Mac OS:

Go to http://www.autodesk.com/fbx.
Click GET FBX SDK to access the FBX SDK Downloads page.
Download the FBX SDK for Mac OS setup file to your computer. The setup file is a compressed Installer program ( \.pkg.tgz* ).
Uncompress the Installer.
Execute the Installer, and follow the instructions.
The Installer program will let you specify a destination directory. Specify a directory which is new or empty. We call this <yourFBXSDKpath> , your distribution directory for FBX SDK.
Read <yourFBXSDKpath>\readme.txt . This readme.txt file contains detailed information about changes in the FBX SDK since the previous version, as well as any last-minute documentation.

Runtime libraries for Mac OS

These are the names of the runtime libraries for Mac OS:

Library File	Description
<yourFBXSDKpath>\lib\clang\release\libfbxsdk.a	Apple LLVM version 5.0 compiler, static library, release, Intel 32-bit (i386) and Intel 64-bit (x86_64)
<yourFBXSDKpath>\lib\clang\release\libfbxsdk.dylib	Apple LLVM version 5.0 compiler, dynamic library, release, Intel 32-bit (i386) and Intel 64-bit (x86_64)
<yourFBXSDKpath>\lib\clang\debug\libfbxsdk.a	Apple LLVM version 5.0 compiler, static library, debug, Intel 32-bit (i386) and Intel 64-bit (x86_64)
<yourFBXSDKpath>\lib\clang\debug\libfbxsdk.dylib	Apple LLVM version 5.0 compiler, dynamic library, debug, Intel 32-bit (i386) and Intel 64-bit (x86_64)
The followings libraries are available for programs that are built using -stdlib=stdc++ instead of the default -stdlib=libc++:
<yourFBXSDKpath>\lib\clang\libstdcpp\release\libfbxsdk.a	Apple LLVM version 5.0 compiler, static library, release, Intel 32-bit (i386) and Intel 64-bit (x86_64)
<yourFBXSDKpath>\lib\clang\libstdcpp\release\libfbxsdk.dylib	Apple LLVM version 5.0 compiler, dynamic library, release, Intel 32-bit (i386) and Intel 64-bit (x86_64)
<yourFBXSDKpath>\lib\clang\libstdcpp\debug\libfbxsdk.a	Apple LLVM version 5.0 compiler, static library, debug, Intel 32-bit (i386) and Intel 64-bit (x86_64)
<yourFBXSDKpath>\lib\clang\libstdcpp\debug\libfbxsdk.dylib	Apple LLVM version 5.0 compiler, dynamic library, debug, Intel 32-bit (i386) and Intel 64-bit (x86_64)

Use sample makefiles as a guide

You will find sample programs in <yourFBXSDKpath>\samples\ (see Sample Programs). Each sample program contains a makefile. Use one of these makefiles as a model for your own project.
