1 | How to add a new sample to wxWindows. |
| 2 | ===================================== | |
| 3 | ||
| 4 | To add a new sample "foo" under directory "samples/foo" you need to | |
| 5 | do the following: | |
| 6 | ||
| 7 | 1. Create the directory samples/foo locally and "cvs add" it | |
| 8 | ||
| 9 | 2. Put the sources, headers and foo.rc file in it and "cvs add" them too | |
| 10 | (don't forget to use "-kb" switch for binary files) | |
| 11 | ||
| 12 | 3. Create the makefiles for Windows compilers. There are several ways to do | |
| 13 | it: | |
| 14 | a) copy the makefiles from samples/minimal, replace all occurences of | |
| 15 | minimal with foo | |
| 77c43587 | 16 | b) use makegen (sources are under utils/makegen) |
| d81a8f2e VZ |
17 | c) use projgen |
| 18 | ||
| 19 | 4. Modify configure.in and samples/configure.in for Unix compilation: | |
| 20 | a) if the sample should only be built if "wxUSE_FOO" is enabled, locate | |
| 21 | the test for "wxUSE_FOO = yes" in configure.in and add a line | |
| 22 | SAMPLES_SUBDIRS="$SAMPLES_SUBDIRS foo" under it | |
| 23 | b) if it should be always built, locate the line "if test $wxUSE_GUI = yes" | |
| 24 | near the end of configure.in and modify the assignment to | |
| 25 | SAMPLES_SUBDIRS to include "foo" (put in alphabetical order) | |
| 26 | c) add foo/Makefile to AC_OUTPUT in samples/configure.in | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | After this, regenerate configure and samples/configure from configure.in by | |
| 29 | running "autoconf" on a Unix system in the corresponding directory. | |
