&lt;div&gt;'''These instructions were tested only on mac intel, with python versions 2.4.3 and 2.5.1'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Requirements&lt;br /&gt;
** You will need X11 to run CDAT. If you don't have it, install it from your Mac OS X Install Disc &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Follow [[Mac_Intel_Instructions| these instructions]] to install vistrails development environment&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* Download cdat form the source code repository&lt;br /&gt;
  &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt; svn checkout http://www-pcmdi.llnl.gov/svn/repository/cdat/trunk cdat &amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Download [http://www.vistrails.org/download/download.php?id=cdat_patch_no_fortran.tar.gz this patch] (building NetCDF without Fortran support) or if you have fortran compiler installed, download [http://www.vistrails.org/download/download.php?id=cdat_patch.tar.gz this other patch] and uncompress to the cdat folder.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Perform the following commands:&lt;br /&gt;
  $ unset PYTHONPATH&lt;br /&gt;
  $ cd cdat/exsrc&lt;br /&gt;
  $ sudo ./install_script /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4&lt;br /&gt;
  $ cd ..&lt;br /&gt;
  $ sudo python install.py /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Before running vistrails, reset PYTHONPATH variable:&lt;br /&gt;
  $ export PYTHONPATH=&amp;lt;path/to/vtk_build&amp;gt;/Wrapping/Python:&amp;lt;path/to/vtk_build&amp;gt;/bin:.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When running vistrails with cdat package, you'll have to run vistrails from an X11 terminal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Setup your user cdat package, and run vistrails. Warning! this will overwrite any previous startup.py file you have in .vistrails'''&lt;br /&gt;

* Download the [http://www.sci.utah.edu/~mjc/cdat-vistrails/cdat_package.tar.gz cdat package]&lt;br /&gt;
* Download the [http://www.sci.utah.edu/~mjc/cdat-vistrails/basic_vt_test.xml test cdat vistrail]&lt;br /&gt;
* If you have run vistrails, you will have a ~/.vistrails directory, if not then create it.&lt;br /&gt;
  $ cd ~/.vistrails&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;== Specific instructions for Mac OS X 10.3.9 and later, Intel or PPC ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Make sure you have xcode installed. If you don't have it, get it [http://developer.apple.com/tools/xcode/ here] (You'll need a Mac Developer Account)&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* Install Python&lt;br /&gt;
** Mac Intel comes with Python 2.3.5. We need Python 2.4. There is a Universal Binary available [http://pythonmac.org/packages/py24-fat/dmg/python-2.4.4-macosx2006-10-18.dmg here]&lt;br /&gt;
** Maybe your path variable was not updated. Using Finder, go to Applications &amp;gt; MacPython 2.4 . There is a script there called Update Shell Profile.command that adds the new Python to your .bash_profile.&lt;br /&gt;
** You can test the installation typing ''python -V'' in the shell. You should see Python 2.4.4&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Install Python Extensions&lt;br /&gt;
** To get memory information on mac, PyXml is needed and a binary package is available [http://pythonmac.org/packages/py24-fat/mpkg/PyXML-0.8.4-py2.4-macosx10.4.mpkg.zip here]&lt;br /&gt;
** fpconst and SOAPpy are also required for using web services. fpconst is available [http://www.sci.utah.edu/~emanuele/files/fpconst-0.7.2.tar here]. SOAPpy is available [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=26590&amp;amp;package_id=18246 here]&lt;br /&gt;

** '''(Skip this step if you don't need to run CORIE workflows)''' Follow [[ExtraVTKFIles|these instructions]] to add CORIE and other needed files to VTK. &lt;br /&gt;
** To compile VTK follow the instructions in the file ''README.html'' in the root of VTK directory tree&lt;br /&gt;
** On configuring CMake, make sure that the variables VTK_WRAP_PYTHON, VTK_USE_GUISUPPORT, VTK_USE_DISPLAY, VTK_USE_CARBON are ON and VTK_USE_QVTK, VTK_USE_COCOA, VTK_USE_X are OFF&lt;br /&gt;
** It is recommended to create a environment variable called PYTHONPATH&lt;br /&gt;
*** export PYTHONPATH=''&amp;lt;path/to/vtk_build&amp;gt;''/Wrapping/Python:''&amp;lt;path/to/vtk_build&amp;gt;''/bin:.&lt;br /&gt;

** Add the '''usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.2.x/bin''' to the PATH variable&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Install GraphViz &lt;br /&gt;
** There are Mac OS X builds of nightly snapshots [http://www.ryandesign.com/graphviz/ here] &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
* Install SIP&lt;br /&gt;
** Get the stable release version available '''[http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/sip/download.php here]'''. (The latest snapshot version is [http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/Downloads/Snapshots/sip4/ here])&lt;br /&gt;
** Uncompress the file, and inside the directory, type '''python configure.py'''. Then '''make''' and '''make install'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Install PyQt4&lt;br /&gt;
** Get the stable version, available '''[http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/pyqt/download.php here]'''.  (The latest snapshot version is [http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/Downloads/Snapshots/PyQt4/ here])&lt;br /&gt;
