KAppTemplate v1.1
|

----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
What is it?
|
|
-----------
|
|
KAppTemplate is a shell script that will create the necessary
|
|
framework to develop various KDE applications. It takes care of the
|
|
autoconf/automake code as well as providing a skeleton and example of
|
|
what the code typically looks like.
|
|
|
|
Currently, KAppTemplate creates four different types of frameworks:
|
|
|
|
1) Full featured KDE application
|
|
|
|
This is a "normal" KDE application with nearly every bleeding edge
|
|
feature.
|
|
|
|
2) KPart application
|
|
|
|
This creates a KDE application that uses KParts as both the Shell
|
|
and the Part (KParts::MainWindow and KParts::ReadWritePart)
|
|
|
|
3) KPart plugin
|
|
|
|
This creates a sample KPart plugin that acts on KHTMLPart
|
|
|
|
4) Existing application conversion
|
|
|
|
This will take existing source and put it in a KDE automake/autoconf
|
|
framework
|
|
|
|
What is a framework?
|
|
--------------------
|
|
When I say "framework", I mean all of the source files as well as the
|
|
autoconf/automake stuff. When KAppTemplate is done, all you will need
|
|
to do to compile and install your app is:
|
|
./configure
|
|
make && make install
|
|
|
|
What do I need to use this?
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
o KDE 3.x
|
|
o autoconf
|
|
o automake
|
|
|
|
How do I install it?
|
|
--------------------
|
|
If you have a standalone kapptemplate.tar.bz2, do:
|
|
./configure
|
|
make && make install
|
|
If you are installing from tdesdk, then just
|
|
make && make install
|
|
If you are installing from .deb or .rpm, then install like any other
|
|
normal package
|
|
|
|
How does <whatever> work?
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
Before you email me, look through the kapptemplate file. It is a
|
|
shell script so it should be pretty easy to understand what is going
|
|
on.
|
|
|
|
I have a suggest, question, or comment
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
Well, email me, then!
|
|
|
|
Have fun!
