[sword-devel] Can't build on OS X (undefined reference to UnicodeString)

ICU is largely (exclusively?) used for transliteration within Sword. Qt
offers the same functionality (it has both its own built-in functionality
for that or it can be built on top of ICU). Since Qt already comes with the
functionality built in, BibleTime distributes its OS X binary without the
extra size of ICU.

As for wanting to build without MacPorts, you'd have to either find or
install the development headers for both of those libraries if you want
that support (In the distant past ICU was available on Mac but not
development headers for it, so MacPorts just installed headers for the
system library back then. Not sure what the story is now). If you have the
headers and the link library, you'll need to specify the proper search
path. For ICU, you can add the standard search directories to your CMake
invocation using the standard mechanism for appending library and header
search paths. For CLucene you can use that method, or specify CLUCENE_HOME
in your environment variables before invocation.

Another option entirely is to run CMake until it fails to find them, then
edit your CMakeCache.txt file to manually specify the path for the
appropriate CLUCENE and ICU variables, then rerun CMake to generate the
build files with the modified options.

There are lots of paths to get you where you're going, and I'm willing to
accept patches or pull requests (http://github.com/greg-hellings/sword.git)
to improve detection on OS X. The relevant files are
cmake/Find{ICU,CLucene}.cmake in the Sword source tree.
