Xcode is Apple’s IDE for creating applications for Mac, iPhone and iPad. Apart from SDK’s for iPhone/iPad application development, it also comes bundled with gcc compiler and other Unix utilities which are required for installation of many other packages. For my case, I wanted to install gnuplot, a tool for generating graphs and plots based on my data. Similar to APT (Advanced Packaging Tool), available on Debian Linux distribution systems, we have MacPorts for Mac-OS. Through MacPorts, installation of gnuplot is just one command:

But in order for MacPorts to work properly, it requires fully functional installation of Xcode. There are 2 ways to get Xcode on your computer:

The Xcode used to work only on Lion but there are some new SDKs available for iOS 7, OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, and OS X 10.9 Mavericks as well. This helps in making sure that the developers gain more control and make more compatible apps. Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard is an upgrade to the previous version of OS X Leopard. This update does not have stacks of new features, rather overall improvements and efficiency upgrades. This version of Apple's OS also has a reduced footprint.

• If you have Mac OS-X 10.7.x or Lion, then you can install Xcode 4.x for free from Apple Developer Center. Otherwise, you are required to pay for the Software.
• Install from Software DVD : Xcode 3.2.3 comes along with some other optional Softwares on Mac OS DVD. Though it might not have all the features of latest release of Xcode but for many use-cases, it would be sufficient. At-least that was the case for me.

Installation from Mac OS-X DVD

Starting the installation program from DVD was pretty straight-forward. But towards the end, the installation failed without giving any reasons. I tried once more but same result. I looked at Apple developer center and after lot of searching around, found a downloadable version of Xcode installer. It’s a huge file (more than 3.5 GB) so took quite some time on my not so fast Internet connection. But I hoped that it would work fine. Again the same results and I went again searching for possible solutions. Finally I found the solution on Stack-Overflow which worked for me.

Essentially, I had to change my System’s date to 01/01/2012, start the installation from DVD and it worked like a breeze. Later I reverted my System’s date correctly and everything works quite nicely again. Quite weird cause and solution but amazing to see Xcode, MacPorts and gnuplot finally working on my computer.

Hopefully, people might see this earlier than spending hours and hours on this problem.
