[Mapserver-users] Re: Mac OS X Apache Install Question

[soprina]

Thanks for all the info.  I am quite new to unix and compiling on mac 
os x and appreciate all your help.

So my next question would be how would I go about statically linking 
all the libraries when compiling mapserver.  I know there are good 
reasons for not doing this but I am just thinking about portability and 
the problem I am currently facing. I definitely need to be able to 
transfer the binary from one machine to another without having  to 
install a range of supporting libraries.  I currently do this with a 
windows compile of mapserver and it works well.  Alternatively is it 
possible that any libraries needed are created/moved to the same folder 
that mapserver is compiled in and if so is it likely that mapserver 
will work when the all the files are then transfer to another machine?

My current configure command for compile is as follows if this is of 
any help?

./configure --with-gd --without-tiff --with-jpeg 
--with-proj=/mapserver/libraries/proj-4.4.5 
--with-gdal=/sw/bin/gdal-config 
--with-ogr=/mapserver/libraries/gdal-1.1.8/ogr

Thanks again for your help
