| ====== The Future Rosegarden 2.0 ====== | |
| |
| The end is closer every day. After months of slogging, we finally have something tangible, and quite broken. | |
| |
| Rosegarden 2.0 <del>is primarily a Qt4 application, but it still depends on KDE4 for i18n()</del> is now a Qt4 application, but still uses some Qt3-compatibility classes, such as Q3Canvas to defer those major rewrite until after the obligatory rewrites have been accomplished. | |
| |
| ===== Working environment ===== | |
| |
| Here's how to check out, update, and test-build the Qt4 port. Note that **this code is now in the Subversion trunk**, it is no longer a separate branch. (The old, stable code is the separate branch now.) | |
| |
| First you'll need the Qt4 development headers. On Ubuntu this one line seems to do the trick: | |
| |
| <code> | |
| $ sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev | |
| </code> | |
| |
| |
| Then, | |
| <code> | |
| $ svn co https://rosegarden.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rosegarden/trunk/rosegarden | |
| $ cd rosegarden | |
| $ sh ./bootstrap.sh | |
| $ ./configure | |
| $ make | |
| $ ./rosegarden | |
| </code> | |
| |
| You may well have to install more development packages, but the configure script will probably tell you about those. Check [[dev:contributing|this link]] for more suggestions. On a clean Ubuntu installation the following was needed: | |
| |
| <code> | |
| $ sudo apt-get install subversion build-essential automake ladspa-sdk liblircclient-dev libjack-dev dssi-dev liblrdf-dev libfftw3-dev xutils-dev | |
| </code> | |
| |
| |
| |
| For the old KDE3 codebase we used a comprehensive CMake-based build system; this has never (yet) been converted to the new code, so we are testing a simpler autoconf configuration instead. It should work, but it's not guaranteed. If you find fixable problems, please report them to the -devel list. | |
| |
| There is no need to install anything, as it is all encapsulated in the one rosegarden binary. | |
| |
| ===== Bug tracker ===== | |
| |
| We're not going to start using the SourceForge tracker to keep track of things until later in the process. Instead, we've got this handy dandy [[dev:qt4_bug_tracker|Tracker Page]] | |
