README for EDE 2.0 pre-alpha
|
||
|
|
============================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
($Id$)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please read this document before using or contributing to EDE 2.0 source code
|
||
|
|
before or during 2.0alpha release.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
BUILD REQUIREMENTS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
EDE 2.0 is using fltk2 toolkit which is not officially released yet. Lately
|
||
|
|
fltk2 has been pretty stable, so you should be able to use any reasonably
|
||
|
|
fresh SVN snapshot from www.fltk.org. Nevertheless, we keep our own "fork"
|
||
|
|
called fltk-copy which is basically the last SVN snapshot that EDE is known
|
||
|
|
to work with. If there are any patches required for proper EDE functioning,
|
||
|
|
you should find them in fltk-copy tree. Further instructions are in
|
||
|
|
fltk-copy/README.ede
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
COMPILING
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At the moment, certain modules in EDE do not compile! In order to build and install
|
||
|
|
EDE do the following
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
autoconf
|
||
|
|
./configure [OPTIONS] (we suggest using --enable-debug)
|
||
|
|
cd edelib2; make; cd ..
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then go into directories of individual modules and compile them. Type
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cd $MODULE; make; make install; cd ..
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
STUFF THAT DOESN'T COMPILE
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- edewm
|
||
|
|
- eiconman
|
||
|
|
- eworkpanel
|
||
|
|
We are in the process of rewriting these modules from scratch. Please use edewm,
|
||
|
|
eiconman and eworkpanel from EDE 1.x (it should work without major problems).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- efinder
|
||
|
|
It will be ported to fltk2 as soon as we finish efiler (see below) cause we
|
||
|
|
would like to use same widgets for displaying file list.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- emenueditor
|
||
|
|
It will either be completely rewritten or removed, because EDE 2 will use XDG menus
|
||
|
|
(FreeDesktop.org).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NEW MODULES IN EDE 2.0
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- edialog
|
||
|
|
Command line utility for displaying dialogs (useful for scripting). It is very
|
||
|
|
UNFINISHED.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- efiler
|
||
|
|
Small file manager. Currently you can only view files but not copy/rename/delete
|
||
|
|
etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- eimage
|
||
|
|
Small image viewer. It should be fully usable but still some bugs present.
|
||
|
|
|
||

||
|
|
CONTRIBUTORS WANTED
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We would very appreciate help from contributors willing to take any of following
|
||
|
|
tasks:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Complete edialog and become its maintainer
|
||
|
|
- Port efinder to fltk2/edelib2 and become its maintainer
|
||
|
|
- Write new enotepad using editor from fltk/test (I believe this is easier than
|
||
|
|
porting old enotepad to fltk2/edelib2) and become its maintainer
|
||
|
|
- Propose new designs for econtrol and eworkpanel (that are realistic to implement
|
||
|
|
with fltk, ofcourse :)
|
||
|
|
- Find any old ede application, port to fltk2/edelib2 and become its maintainer
|
||
|
|
- Find useful fltk2 apps on www.fltk.org and see if they can be ede-ified
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Also, EDE code is sparkled with comments starting with TODO and FIXME - please see
|
||
|
|
what of that you can do. EDE coding standards and EDE HIG documents are being prepared.
