needs some work.
http://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Development#Plasma_SDK:_Plasmate:
Could someone using openSuse add the latest information about how to
install plasmate to the plasmate section? I removed the old info about
adding sebas personal repository for 11.4 because that looked outdated
to me.
http://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Development#Plasma_Active_Core_Development:
the part about contour seems to be outdated. what is the current state
of contour? could someone with knowledge edit this part or provide me
with enough information so I can do it?
http://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Development#Integration_Workflow
What is the state of the openSuse integration workflow?

Hi
I am unable to modify PA wiki with my kde account. Could someone put on
the wiki the article I have wrote on "Setting up an AP development
environment for your application" ? It could be put on
"Plasma/Active/Development" page
(http://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Development) as section 1.2
thanks
Bogdan
Setting up an AP development environment for your application
The recommended approach for application development is to use a PC with a
Linux distribution (e.g. openSUSE). If needed, clone and compile the required
PA libraries, notably Active Quick, on your platform. However, this step is not
mandatory as long as the application interface is written in standard QML. As
general rules please use cmake as compilation management system and QML for
your graphical user interface. See PA Apps Recommendations and Guidelines
(http://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Apps) for further details.
Once your application is ready for testing, please use the latest PA iso on a
supported device (e.g. ExoPC). Enable the development repository on your device
and type
zypper refresh
zypper dup
in order to update your PA installation. Make sure that your application
compiles and runs on PA.
There are a number of limitations on PA, for example there is no full screen
mode for the application as the task bar should be always displayed in case the
application misbehaves. These limitations are not always documented, so please
test carrefully your application. If needed, install synergy
(http://synergy-foss.org/) in order to have keyboard and mouse support on your
tablet. However, check carefully how your application is adapted to touch
screens as this is the main target for PA. Using a virtual machine to test your
application is not recommended as full touch screen support is not (yet)
available.
Once you have tested your application, you can prepare it for deployment by
setting up your repository on Mer Project Open Build Service
(https://build.merproject.org/). For alternative ways of deploying your
application see PA Packaging and Distribution
(http://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Apps#Packaging_and_Distribution).
