Hi,
I have committed to the Rosegarden repository (branches/reorganisation) some
preliminary CMake build system support files. It is far from be finished. It
doesn' t install anything, and most of the 3rd library checks are still
pending, but it may be used instead of reorganise-makefile and see what it
looks.
What is CMake? CMake is a replacement for the autotools. It is an open-source
system using configuration text files that generates good old makefiles which
can be used to manage complex compile/build tasks. More info here:
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ
http://www.cmake.org/HTML/Documentation.html
You need at least CMake 2.4 for KDE support. If your distribution already
ships cmake-2.4.2, it should be fine. The latest release is 2.4.3 which can
be downloaded from here:
http://www.cmake.org/HTML/Download.html
First of all, to build the branch you need to download the reorganisation
branch as explained here: http://www.rosegardenmusic.com/getting/ using a
command like this (all in the same line):
$ svn co
https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rosegarden/branches/reorganisation/rosegarden
rosegarden-reorg
This will create a directory named "rosegarden-reorg" containing the sources.
To build it, you only need the following commands:
$ cd rosegarden-reorg
$ cmake .
$ make
But the above method should be discouraged, as it will use the same source
directories to store the CMake generated files, and the binary files
generated by the compiler. Instead, you are encouraged to try an
"out-of-sources" alternative, like this:
$ cd rosegarden-reorg
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
All the generated files will reside in the build/ directory, which can be
safely erased when you don't need it anymore. Remember that the "make install"
and uninstall targets are currently missing.
There is also a "ccmake" interactive program, allowing you to choose options
and explore default settings. It will be more useful later, when the build
system arrive to a more mature state.
Regards,
Pedro
