On MacOS X or Debian, follow the next step. COMPILING ViTE For Debian/Ubuntu users: If you do not have Qt please visit : http://www.qtsoftware.com/downloads/opensource/appdev and download the development files for your operating system. you can use apt-get : sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev libqt4-opengl-dev libglew-dev For Debian users, you may need to install also the qmake package. Then, until Qt development files are installed, you can compile ViTE : ./configure (or ./configure --enable_otf if you want to compile and use the otf version from the sources) or cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=. . or ccmake (which allows you to choose the directories and library for otf) will configure your Makefile depending on your OS. make will create the binary file. For Fedora/CentOS users: You have to have the administration rights (su). you will need to get the following rpm packages: wget ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/ftp.pramberger.at/systems/linux/contrib/rhel5/i386/qt45-4.5.1-1.el5.pp.i386.rpm wget ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/ftp.pramberger.at/systems/linux/contrib/rhel5/i386/qt45-devel-4.5.1-1.el5.pp.i386.rpm wget ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/ftp.pramberger.at/systems/linux/contrib/rhel5/i386/qt45-sqlite-4.5.1-1.el5.pp.i386.rpm Then, you will need to install the required packages used by the previous ones: yum install dbus-devel fontconfig-devel freetype-devel glib2-devel libSM-devel libX11-devel libXcursor-devel libXext-devel libXfixes-devel libXi-devel libXinerama-devel libXrandr-devel libXrender-devel libpng-devel mesa-libGLU-devel glut glut-devel gcc-c++ After you can install the rpm packages you just download: rpm -i qt45-4.5.1-1.el5.pp.i386.rpm rpm -i qt45-sqlite-4.5.1-1.el5.pp.i386.rpm rpm -i qt45-devel-4.5.1-1.el5.pp.i386.rpm You have to export your PATH variable to the directory of qmake, which is by default : export PATH=/usr/lib/qt45/qt/bin:/usr/lib/qt45/qt/include:$PATH If it is not the case, try : find / | grep qmake and take the path given. Go to the vite/src/trunk directory then : ./configure make or gmake will create the binary file. DOCUMENTATION For ViTE there is three documentations that can be found in documentation folder. The first one is the user manual which can be useful for a first use. The two other ones are for developpers : this is the technical manual and the Doxygen generated doc. The technical manual explains how ViTE is coded and the Doxygen explains the classes and functions more in details. For Doxygen, it is necessary to have epstopdf for the latex version. You can install it with the package texlive-extra-utils. Also, install the dot program for graphics from the package graphviz. The doxygen documentation can be compiled by the command : make doc.
