Re: [Inkscape-devel] [Inkscape-user] noob. Can someone help me build/run?
Hey xl cheese,
I'd recommend doing a clean checkout again from "https://inkscape.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/inkscape/inkscape/trunk" instead (note the inkscape at the beginning). That will ensure you won't run into the issue a few of our devs recently have.
Also, since you're on Ubuntu, I'd recommend pulling up a terminal and doing "sudo apt-get build-dep inkscape" which will pull down the dependencies for you.
I will be honest that I can't offer anything good advice-wise in trying to get eclipse to work as I've never used it. Gail, do you want to chime in?
However, if you want to know the standard way to build (again in a terminal), after the initial checkout or when I make clean I do this: "svn up && ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make && sudo make install". Then I just typically do "svn up && make && sudo make install" after that.
I also CCd the devel-list as well to get others input to perhaps help with Eclipse (and it's a good place to ask development related Qs in general)...
Hopefully the above is at least a little helpful for you...
Cheers, Josh

Trying to use Eclipse on a Ubuntu 7.04 system.
I did this command to copy the svn locally: (/home/wes/inkscape) svn checkout https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/inkscape/inkscape/trunk inkscape
Now that I have the source code how do I make it run in Eclipse?
So far I have created a new project called WesInkscape in the dir /home/wes/inkscape/src I can't seem to build it or run it.
The inkscape wiki page for eclipse doesn't help.
Thanks.

I haven't tried to set up Eclipse in Linux for Inkscape, but the steps should be similar. The big difference, of course, is that you won't be setting it up for the btool since that is Windows only. Instead you will have to set it up for the standard make (you will have to get the commands Josh mentioned called in the right order via Eclipse). Sorry that that probably doesn't help much, but if you ask some more specific questions or tell us your problems, maybe we can help you set it up.

When starting with SoC, I wanted to give Eclipse a try and managed to set it up for Debian Linux. I don't remember the exact steps but maybe could reconstruct them if there is a specific question (I didn't follow the discussion on inkscape-user so I don't know what the precise problem is). What helped me, though, was this:
http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Linux_University_for_Developers
Under "Linux Development Tools" the first linke reads "Importing Existing C++ Projects Into Eclipse". I seem to remember that the steps given there pretty much did it for me.
Hope this helps, Max
P.S.: Please CC: me if you want further information, since I'm not yet subscribed to the inkscape-user list.
Oops. Looks like not being subscribed, I cannot post to inkscape-user. Could someone please forward my email there? Thanks!
