# Mac OSX

An example Makefile is included with the NDK examples shipped in the NDK sub directory of the Documentation installed with NUKE.

On all platforms we use the Intel compiler, but building with GCC 4.0 will work just as well.

If you want to build with the Intel compiler, just substitute it for g++ in your makefile.

On Mac OS X, NUKE 64 was built on Leopard, using GCC 4.0. We recommend third party developers

to do the same.

Warning

If you build on newer versions of OSX, they are not usually compatible with older versions, regardless of which version of the OSX libs you actually build/link against.

The resulting shared object file (.dylib) should then be moved to your ~/.nuke directory

(or otherwise into the nuke plugin_path).

See Building & Installing Plug-ins for information on creating your first plug-in.
