Qpsycle/setup/alpha/Building psycle plugins

In fedora core 6 you first need to install:

yum install scons yum install boost-devel

For Debian-based distros (e.g. Debian, Ubuntu ...):

aptitude install scons aptitude install libboost-dev aptitude install libboost-test-dev aptitude install libboost-thread-dev aptitude install libboost-filesystem-dev aptitude install libboost-signals-dev

Download the following sourcecode from the subversion trunk:

svn checkout https://psycle.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/psycle/trunk psycle-trunk

switch to the psycle-trunk/psycle-plugins subdir.

then type:

scons

or to build with debugging support:

scons packageneric__debug=1

then wait a while while it builds all the plugins.

Make a directory to store all your plugins--for example:

mkdir ~/qpsycle/plugins

Then copy the newly built plugins to your plugin dir, e.g.:

cp ++packageneric/variants/default/stage-install/usr/local/lib/*.so ~/qpsycle/plugins

Now edit the text file .xpsycle.xml config file to point to your new plugins dir (note final slash!):

n.b. the line already exists in the xml! (edit it)

editor ~/.xpsycle.xml



restart qpsycle and you should be able to see your new plugins.

GAME OVER

Please test qpsycle and add any bugs/missing features you notice to the issues tracker ( https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=10834&atid=941024 ).

Oh and here is how to update your build when the developers make changes: Getting and building updates from the subversion repository
