I want to compile fdkaac from nu774

https://github.com/nu774/fdkaac

the author is providing instruction only on WIN32 platform

can someone provide the instructions for OS X?

You obviously missed:
https://github.com/nu774/fdkaac/blob/master/INSTALL

Unix-like environment
---------------------

You can build and install libfdkaac and fdkaac in the following step.

1) extract the source, and cd to the source directory
2) autoreconf -i
3) ./configure
4) make
5) sudo make install

Depending on your requirements, you might want to add some extra arguments to
configure script.
You have to install libfdk-aac first, and do the same for fdkaac.


And yes, underneath all the bling-bling, OS X actually is a Unix-like environment. It's based on Darwin, which is based on NeXTSTEP, which is based on BSD/Mach.

Just need to find a terminal, then you can actually do work with OS X ;)

thank you very much for the answer but i didn't miss it

when I try to compile libfdk_aac manually I have a small (100k) of fdkaac binary (version 0.6.2) but the previous version (0.2.0) was almost 1mb so something is missing

I said that the author provides only win32 support only because he has provided an easy autocompile bat file for windows


i then installed libfdk_aac with macport and now I don't know how to fix the error message "configure: error: libfdk-aac is required"

i tried with the configuration --include pointing at the include folder generated by macport, but I cannot manage it
