Hi David, Can you please suggest me a solution? I am trying it for the last two weeks but could not find a solution. I even posted a thread at this forum but could not solve the problem. Now as your directions, I downloaded the openbabel from git: https://github.com/openbabel/openbabel
And then used the command: *cmake ../ -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3 -DPYTHON_BINDINGS=ON -DRUN_SWIG=ON* but the installation gave error at the end. I am appending the whole output below. Please help me here. c02j2e0bdhjf:build hashmimu$ cmake ../ -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3 -DPYTHON_BINDINGS=ON -DRUN_SWIG=ON -- The C compiler identification is AppleClang 8.0.0.8000042 -- The CXX compiler identification is AppleClang 8.0.0.8000042 -- Check for working C compiler: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/cc -- Check for working C compiler: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/cc -- works -- Detecting C compiler ABI info -- Detecting C compiler ABI info - done -- Detecting C compile features -- Detecting C compile features - done -- Check for working CXX compiler: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/c++ -- Check for working CXX compiler: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/c++ -- works -- Detecting CXX compiler ABI info -- Detecting CXX compiler ABI info - done -- Detecting CXX compile features -- Detecting CXX compile features - done -- Using included inchi library. -- Found LibXml2: /usr/lib/libxml2.dylib (found version "2.9.4") -- Found ZLIB: /usr/lib/libz.dylib (found version "1.2.8") -- Found wxWidgets: -L/usr/local/lib;;;-framework IOKit;-framework Carbon;-framework Cocoa;-framework AudioToolbox;-framework System;-framework OpenGL;-lwx_baseu-3.0;-lwx_osx_cocoau_core-3.0;-lwx_osx_cocoau_adv-3.0 (found version "3.0.2") -- Looking for conio.h -- Looking for conio.h - not found -- Looking for sys/time.h -- Looking for sys/time.h - found -- Looking for time.h -- Looking for time.h - found -- Looking for strings.h -- Looking for strings.h - found -- Looking for rpc/xdr.h -- Looking for rpc/xdr.h - not found -- Looking for regex.h -- Looking for regex.h - found -- Looking for C++ include sstream -- Looking for C++ include sstream - found -- Looking for rint -- Looking for rint - found -- Looking for snprintf -- Looking for snprintf - found -- Looking for sranddev -- Looking for sranddev - found -- Looking for strcasecmp -- Looking for strcasecmp - found -- Looking for strncasecmp -- Looking for strncasecmp - found -- Looking for dlopen in dl -- Looking for dlopen in dl - found -- Looking for sys/types.h -- Looking for sys/types.h - found -- Looking for stdint.h -- Looking for stdint.h - found -- Looking for stddef.h -- Looking for stddef.h - found -- Check size of clock_t -- Check size of clock_t - done -- Performing Test SCANDIR_NEEDS_CONST -- Performing Test SCANDIR_NEEDS_CONST - Failed -- Checking available shared pointer... -- Performing Test HAVE_STD_SHARED_PTR -- Performing Test HAVE_STD_SHARED_PTR - Success -- Performing Test HAVE_STD_TR1_SHARED_PTR -- Performing Test HAVE_STD_TR1_SHARED_PTR - Failed -- Performing Test HAVE_STD_TR1_SHARED_PTR_IN_TR1_HEADER -- Performing Test HAVE_STD_TR1_SHARED_PTR_IN_TR1_HEADER - Failed -- Use std::shared_ptr in memory -- Found Eigen3: /usr/local/include/eigen3 (Required is at least version "2.91.0") -- Found PkgConfig: /usr/local/bin/pkg-config (found version "0.29.1") -- Checking for module 'cairo' -- Found cairo, version 1.14.8 -- Found Cairo: /usr/local/Cellar/cairo/1.14.8/lib/libcairo.dylib -- Cairo found.
