When you checkout the +qashmoney-source module from CVS, it will create a directory on your hard drive called +qashmoney-source. These instructions assume you are in this directory. + +The first thing you need to do is have all the necessary cross-compile software +and Qtopia installed on your system. I assume you have already done this since +you are downloading CVS, but if not, go to: + +http://docs.zaurus.com + +and download the RPMS that you need for development. + +You also must have sqlite installed on your system to successfully compile +QashMoney. Go to: + +http://www.sqlite.org + +to download this progam. + +After that, set the correct environment variables for the package you +are developing. Two scripts in the qashmoney-source directory are used for that purpose: x86.sh +and arm.sh. If you are building for x86 type: + +source x86.sh + +and press enter. To make binaries that run on the Zaurus, type: + +source arm.sh + +Next, construct the makefile by typing: + +tmake -o Makefile qashmoney.pro + +tmake is Trolltech's program for constructing a typical GNU Makefile from the +project file (qashmoney.pro for this application). If you get an "error: tmake +command not found", you either don't have all the correct RPMS installed or your +environment variables are not correctly set. If all is well type: + +make + +and the program should be constructed and you will be left with a qashmoney +binary in this directory. If you compiled for x86, you can see the application +by using the Qt Virtual Frame Buffer which emulates the Qtopia environment on +your computer. First, copy all the files from the databasefiles directory within the +qashmoney directory. Otherwise, the program will not function. + +To run QashMoney in the Qtopia Virtual Frame Buffer, type: + +qvfb & +./qashmoney -qws + +and QashMoney should appear in the frambuffer. You can use and test qashmoney +here as you would on the Zaurus. + +If you want to compile the app and make the IPK file, check out the qashmoney-build module and see the README file in that module. + +I hope the program can be useful. If you have any questions or comments, please +contact me at qashmoneyman@attbi.com + +Thanks! + +Allen + +Disclaimer: Altough I've tried to make this application tight and well +functioning, it comes with absolutely no warranty and I will not be liable for +any damage it may cause. |
