@quotation Warning
Parallel builds on @value{OS.osx} are currently broken when building in a @b{terminal} with Xcode. You @b{must not use} the @command{make -jN} jobs option. A workaround is available if you do not need to build HandBrake.app (MacGUI): use @command{configure --disable-xcode} to disable Xcode.

@chapter Prerequisites
Building on @value{OS.osx} is well supported. It is the reference platform for @value{HB.name}. The following are the recommended specifications for this platform; but is not necessarily the only configuration that is possible:

@itemize @bullet
@item Mac Intel hardware
@item @value{OS.osx} 10.5.6
@item Xcode-3.1.2
@item gcc 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5490)
@item yasm 0.7.2.2153 (for i386 and x86_64 architectures)

@chapter Overview
The two general methods to build on @value{OS.osx} are building from @b{terminal} or @b{Xcode}. The preferred method for automated and repeatable builds is to use the terminal. Otherwise the choice is generally up to the individual. In essence, the terminal actually invokes @command{xcodebuild} to build the very same targets contained in the Xcode project.
