Currently, neither the installer nor the application is signed. The Gatekeeper feature of macOS may prevent the installation or execution of MeVisLab depending on its configuration. Read http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5290 to learn more about Gatekeeper and how to exempt MeVisLab from Gatekeeper. |
MeVisLab is distributed as a macOS disk image (dmg). Before opening the disk image, the license agreement is displayed. Please read the license agreement carefully before accepting it (Figure 1.1, “License agreement”).
Besides the MeVisLab application and full Software Development Kit (SDK), the distribution contains the MeVisLab User’s Guide of the macOS Edition and the license document.
The distribution also includes a README
file
with up-to-date installation instructions and requirements, please
review both before installing and starting MeVisLab (Figure 1.2, “Contents of the distribution
disk image displayed in Finder”).
MeVisLab is built as a self-contained application bundle and
may be installed in a directory of your choice. The recommended
installation location, however, is within the user or system-wide
Applications folder (~/Applications
or /Applications
,
where ’~
’ is your home directory).
You may now proceed to set up the preferences for external default applications, such as your favorite text editor or web browser. This is done within MeVisLab via the Preferences panel (available via menu MeVisLab › → Preferences… › → Supportive Programs). To use the macOS default application for a document type, specify the command open (Figure 1.3, “MeVisLab Preferences panel”).
Congratulations, you may now start using MeVisLab. If you would like to extend the functionality of MeVisLab by developing your own MeVisLab modules, please proceed to Chapter 5, Module Development.
