Is there a guide already for openocd on mac os X somewhere in the documentation?

Think I have this running (need to make my jtag header to test) but software install looks good, there's a couple guides sort of but I thought I'd consolidate also this one (http://forum.sparkfun.com/viewtopic.php?t=8923) seems out dated (for 0.1.0 not 0.1.7) so here goes.

You need:

D2XX drivers: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX/MacOSX/UniBin/D2XX0.1.7.dmg
and
openocd 4 http://sourceforge.net/projects/openocd/files/openocd/0.4.0/openocd-0.4.0.tar.bz2/download

and of course normal xcode / gnu compilers.

so from the D2XX folder you
```
sudo cp bin/10.6/libftd2xx.0.1.7.dylib /usr/local/lib
sudo ln -sf /usr/local/lib/libftd2xx.0.1.7.dylib /usr/local/lib/libftd2xx.dylib
sudo cp bin/ftd2xx.h /usr/local/include
sudo cp Samples/WinTypes.h /usr/local/include
```
then from the openocd folder you:
```
./configure --enable-ft2232_ftd2xx
make
sudo make install
```

structuresound,

our openocd docs are sadly lacking in general; all we've got is a pointer to a tutorial for how to do it on ubuntu, and nothing for os x. i've filed a ticket:
http://code.google.com/p/leaflabs/issues/detail?id=45

however, i realistically don't think this issue will be addressed in the next month; we've got a lot on our plates until mid-december.

yeah I'm hacking through it slowly, hopefully will have a working solution. Now that I've disabled the ftdi .kext it is able to recognize the device.

I like the error code "The memory has been smashed" :)

Okay, tried the other method (libftdi instead of d2xx) and everything seems to work fine !

So I can verify that the Olimex is happy on OS X using the leaflabs CFG file with one exception.

the open ocd install method was simply following the first post here:

http://forum.sparkfun.com/viewtopic.php?t=8923

which involves the following:

OpenOCD from SVN, r214 (I used 0.4.0)
- libusb 0.1.12
- libftdi 0.10
```
cd libusb-0.1.12
./configure
make
sudo make install
cd ..

cd libftdi-0.10
./configure
make
sudo make install
cd ..

cd openocd
./configure --enable-ft2232_libftdi --enable-usbprog
make
sudo make install
```
```
but also in libmaple/support/openocd

remove this

flash bank stm32x 0x08000000 0x00020000 0 0 $_TARGETNAME

replace with

set _FLASHNAME $_CHIPNAME.flash
flash bank $_FLASHNAME stm32x 0x08000000 0x00020000 0 0 $_TARGETNAME
```
otherwise it thinks stm32x is the name not the driver.

then use make jtag install

I got most of it to work (unfortunately, I need to remake my JTAG adapter so I can't connect it to the board yet). The most painful part was getting my Powerbook not to load the driver for serial port A. Had to repeat the Sparkfun thread instructions a few times (including reboot).

Further information I noticed:
- to compile libusb, I had to remove the -Werror flag, or the compiler would fail because of warnings on some typecasts
- used libftdi-0.18 from http://www.intra2net.com/en/developer/libftdi/download/libftdi-0.18.tar.gz

Now onto figuring out how to get it working with Eclipse with Zylin and gdb...
