-XDS-viewer is a open source program that was written by Michael Hoffer (Kabsch lab).
+XDS-viewer is a open source program that was written by Michael Hoffer (Kabsch lab). It replaces the now obsolete [[VIEW]] program, and is available from http://xds-viewer.sourceforge.net/ .
-I was able to compile the program (version 0.5) for RedHat Enterprise Linux versions 3, 4 and 5 (or rather, for their CentOS equivalents) by the following recipe:
+Source code adapted to Qt5 is available as [https://{{SERVERNAME}}/pub/xds-viewer-0.7.tar.gz] (Thomas Hauß, HZB).
- # the X11 development libs are needed; in case they are not available use something like:
+To compile the program, use the following recipe:
- # yum install libX11-devel libXext-devel
- # also check out http://doc.trolltech.com/4.5/requirements-x11.html !
- wget http://download.qtsoftware.com/qt/source/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.5.0.tar.gz
- # unpack the tarfile and run "./configure -static"; then "gmake -j <number of processes>".
- # Warning: this takes hours and up to 10 GB disk space!
- # It may be possible to add e.g. the -no-qt3support -no-exceptions options but I didn't try.
- wget http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.6/cmake-2.6.3-Linux-i386.sh
- # unpack and note where the bin directory is
- wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/xds-viewer/xds-viewer-0.5.tar.gz
- # unpack, then edit compile.sh and add a line like
- # PATH=<path to cmake bin directory>:/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.5.0/bin:$PATH
- compile.sh  # this gives the binary in the build/bin directory
-I worked out the following patch to make the x and y values fit into the upper right window:
+ wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/xds-viewer/xds-viewer-0.6.tar.gz
+ tar xf xds-viewer-0.6.tar.gz
+ cd xds-viewer-0.6
+ sh compile.sh
+ # If this complains about missing tools or libraries, use e.g. "yum search cmake"
+ # I had to "yum install cmake qt-devel"
+ # on CentOS6 I had to install and use cmake3 instead of cmake
+ # installation of the 0.7 version works in the same way
+The following patch makes the x and y values fit into the upper right window:

-The resulting binaries are available at ftp://turn5.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/pub .
+Linux binaries are available at https://{{SERVERNAME}}/pub/linux_bin . The default one is a [https://{{SERVERNAME}}/pub/linux_bin/XDS-viewer Qt5 binary] (a Qt4 binary is available as XDS-viewer.qt4).
+A Qt5 binary for MacOS [https://{{SERVERNAME}}/pub/mac_bin/XDS-Viewer-macOS10.13.dmg 10.13], and one for [https://{{SERVERNAME}}/pub/mac_bin/XDS-Viewer-macOS10.15.dmg 10.15] and newer was made available by Thomas Hauß (HZB). Mac users must decide which one is appropriate.
