Compiling from source
You want to help the project by submitting patches? Here is how to compile the project:
- Create a local folder where you will put your source files
- Install Netbeans 6 (in Ubuntu, directly from the repositories) and the Sun Java 6 SDK
- Install Subversion (in Ubuntu, the svn package)
- Open Netbeans, and add/install the Subversion plugins: Menu Tools - Plugins - Subversion package from the list
- Open a terminal in the folder where you want to put your source files
Run this command:
svn checkout http://webcamstudio.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ webcamstudio-read-only
- Source files will be downloaded, go take a break... :)
- In Netbeans, select menu "File - Open project", select the "webcamstudio" folder
- Now, you should be able to compile and build your own version.
How to submit your fixes and patches?
- You can create diff files and send them to Patrick via Twitter to get his email address.
- Why do I prevent others from writing in the main trunk? To keep control of what will be included in each release.
