Getting started current branch 9.X
Short guide to get started for newcomers to GCompris/Linux development. This is tested with ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04. It's from scratch to your first own activity.
Git download
git clone git://git.gnome.org/gcompris cd gcompris git checkout -b gcomprixogoo origin/gcomprixogoo cd gcompris
build gcompris development dependencies:
sudo apt-get build-dep gcompris
make sure you have the package "gnome-common" installed.
in gcompris folder: sh autogen.sh && make
if you want do a 'sudo make install' You should be able to test a GCompris-Activity by running the following command in the 'src' directory:
sh runit.sh connect4-activity
Create a new own activity
In the 'src' directory:
sh createit.sh basuracatcher make sh runit.sh basuracatcher-activity/
You are also able to try the installed version by running:
make clean sh autogen.sh make sudo make install gcompris --experimental --reread-menu
Then happy coding in 'src/basuracatcher-activity/basuracatcher.py'

Setting up the IDE
Of course you are able to choose your favorite IDE but in case you haven't one, I'll show you how to do it in my favorite Eclipse. I tried the following steps with "Eclipse Helios"
1) Download Eclipse C/C++: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-cc-developers/heliosr
2) Install the Python Plug-in:
Open eclipse and goto Help->Install new Software->Add Site:
http://pydev.org/updates
Select the pydev plugin and follow the steps. After restarting you should be able to open and edit Python files.
3) Import GCompris as an eclipse project:
File->new->C/C++-->"Makefile project with existing code" -> choose GCompris source directory
After restarting you should be able to open your created python file in src/basuracatcher-activity/basuracatcher.py
4) Configure PyDev
Goto Window->Preferences->Interpreter Python and select your interpeter (e.g: /usr/bin/python)
