# Building Ice for Objective-C on OS X
This page describes how to build and install Ice for Objective-C from source
code on OS X. If you prefer, you can install a [Homebrew][1] package instead.
## Objective-C Build Requirements
### Operating Systems and Compilers
Ice for Objective-C is currently only supported on OS X, and was extensively
tested using the operating system and compiler versions listed for our
[supported platforms][2].
### Ice Development Kit
You will need the Ice development kit for C++, which you can install as a binary
distribution or compile from source yourself.
## Building Ice for Objective-C
Change to the Ice for Objective-C source subdirectory:
$ cd objective-c
If you have not built Ice for C++ in the `cpp` subdirectory, set `ICE_HOME` to
the directory of your Ice for C++ installation. For example:
$ export ICE_HOME=/opt/Ice
Edit `config/Make.rules` to establish your build configuration. The comments in
the file provide more information.
Run `make` to build the Ice Objective-C libraries.
## Installing an Objective-C Source Build
Simply run `make install`. This will install Ice in the directory specified by
the `prefix` variable in `config/Make.rules`.
When compiling Ice programs, you must pass the location of the
`<prefix>/include` directory to the compiler with the `-I` option, and the
location of the library directory with the `-L` option.
## Running the Test Suite
Python is required to run the test suite. After a successful source build, you
can run the tests as follows:
$ make test
This command is equivalent to:
$ python allTests.py
If everything worked out, you should see lots of `ok` messages. In case of a
failure, the tests abort with `failed`.
