= Get it Running = == Debian Linux == === Installing the Libraries === Install the following libraries: * SDL main library, libsdl1.2-dev, web: [http://www.libsdl.org/index.php link] * SDL image library, libsdl-image1.2-dev, web: [http://www.libsdl.org/index.php link] * SDL true type fonts, libsdl-ttf2.0-dev, web: [http://www.libsdl.org/index.php link] * SDL mixer, libsdl-mixer1.2-dev, web: [http://www.libsdl.org/index.php link] You can also get these libraries from Debian packages: (Note: "libsdl-ttf2.0-dev" is only available for Debian "Sarge" (testing) and Debian SID (unstable)!) {{{ wraith root # apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev ... }}} === Getting the Source === First you will have to install the subversion program, make sure, that the ssl support is enabled {{{ wraith root # apt-get install subversion }}} Check out the source via svn anonymous, this will download the hole project to the directory orxonox-dir {{{ wraith user # svn co http://svn.orxonox.ethz.ch/reporx/orxonox orxonox-dir }}} You won't be able to commit (check in) anything with the anonymous repository. You have to ask us for user/pass combination. If you have already an account check it out like this: {{{ wraith user # svn co https://svn.orxonox.ethz.ch/reporx/orxonox orxonox-dir }}} You will be asked for user name and password, that you have from us. === Compiling === Just change into the trunk directory, execute configure and make.... {{{ wraith user # cd ./orxonox/trunk/ wraith user # ./configure ... wraith user # make ... wraith user # cd src wraith user # ./orxonox }}} === Profiling === If you want to profile (performance measureing) orxonox you will probably want to view the statistics in a special program like kprof. On Gentoo systems you can just emerge it: {{{ wraith root # apt-get install kprof }}} Orxonox runs much much slower with profiling enabled, so don't be embarassed! {{{ wraith user # cd ./orxonox/trunk/ wraith user # ./configure --enable-profile ... wraith user # make ... wraith user # cd src wraith user # ./orxonox }}} Ok. Orxonox runs now (very slow) and writes its profiling stats to a file called gmon.out. Remember that _only_ those functinalities, that you are using while running the program will be profiled (since the profile log is written while the program is been executed). [[br]] After you exit the application, you will have to parse the output file and then you are able to open it in kprof application: {{{ wraith user # gprof -b ./orxonox > text.out wraith user # kprof -f text.out }}} For more documentation see the DevelopmentResources.
