Anjuta Version 1.0.0 Release Copyright (C) 2000-2002 Naba Kumar Home site => http://anjuta.org/ Introduction: ------------- Anjuta is a versatile Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for C and C++. It has been written for GTK/GNOME, and features a number of advanced programming facilities. These include project management, application wizards, an on-board interactive debugger, and a powerful source editor with source browsing and syntax highlighting. Anjuta is an effort to marry the flexibility and power of text-based command-line tools with the ease-of-use of the GNOME graphical user interface. That is why it has been made as user-friendly as possible. At present, Anjuta is only a beta release and lots of work needs to be done to improve it. In the future, Anjuta is going to be much more capable and stable! Extensive debugging has not yet been performed, so at the moment it will undoubtedly have lots of bugs. It would be great if you use it and report any problems to us. That way, you will be helping to improve the software as well as helping the Open Source community. Please read the file COPYRIGHT for details. Any sort of suggestions or patches for Anjuta are also most welcome.

The following are the minimum requirements. Development platform is RedHat Linux 7.x with GNOME 1.4 1) Installation # From Tarball: * GNOME libs (1.2.8 or later) * gnome-xml (aka libxml1) (1.4.0 or later) * ORBit (0.5.0 or later) * gnome-print (0.35 or later) * gdk-pixbuf * scrollkeeper (0.1.4 or later) * pkgconfig # From CVS: * All the requirements for tarball * GNU gettext 0.10.x (or later) * Automake 1.4 (or later) * Autoconf 2.13 (or later) # From Src RPM: < RedHat 6.1 or upwards > * gnome-libs & gnome-libs-devel (1.2.8 or later) * libxml & libxml-devel (1.4.0 or later) * ORBit & ORBit-devel (0.5.0 or later) * gnome-print & gnome-print-devel (0.35 or later) * gdk-pixbuf & gdk-pixbuf-devel (0.15 or later) * scrollkeeper (0.1.4 or later) * pkgconfig (0.10 or later) * automake (1.4) * gcc & gcc-c++ (2.95.2 or later) * RPM (4.0 ?) * xml-i18n-tools or intltool (for documentation) # From RPM Pkg: < RedHat 7.1 or upwards > * gnome-libs & gnome-libs-devel (1.2.8 or later) * libxml (1.4.0 or later) * ORBit (0.5.0 or later) * gnome-print (0.35 or later) * gdk-pixbuf (0.15 or later) * scrollkeeper (0.1.4 or later) * automake (1.4) * RPM (4.0 ?) 2) Running < RedHat 6.1 or upwards > * GNOME (1.4 full install recommended) * Bash command shell * GNU Indent * gnome-terminal * gnome-help-browser (or Nautilus or mozilla) * Automake/Autoconf * GNU Make * GNU C/C++ compiler * GNU debugger (gdb) * GNU grep INSTALLATION: ------------- # From Tarball: Note:- The package as an example is taken as anjuta-1.0.tar.gz and '#' is the shell prompt. You must be logged in as root to install Anjuta. 1) Get the tarball anjuta-1.0.tar.gz 2) copy it to your home dir. 3) Unzip it by typing: #gunzip anjuta-1.0.tar.gz 4) Extract it by typing: #tar -xvf anjuta-1.0.tar 5) Change dir: #cd anjuta-1.0 6) Type: # ./configue 7) Type: # make 8) Type: # make install That's all. If everything went smoothly, congratulations. If not, then please check that you have the latest libgnome and libgnomeui installed. Get them if you don't have and repeat the above steps. # From RPM Pkg: Note:- The package as an example is taken as anjuta-1.0-1.i386.rpm and '#' is the shell prompt. You must be logged in as root to install Anjuta. 1) Get the RPM package anjuta-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm (visit http://anjuta.org for latest release). 2) Change to the directory containing the rpm package. 3) Type: rpm -Uvh anjuta-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm. That's all. If everything went smoothly, congratulations. Otherwise, some dependency error will come up. You will have to install the required components first. Then repeat the above. Because anjuta was becoming too big, it was decided that the rpm be split into various pieces. The following are all the rpms available for a perticular release: anjuta-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm [Base anjuta] anjuta-i18n-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm [localization support] anjuta-docs-en-1.0.0.i386.rmp [English documentaion] anjuta-docs-ja-1.0.0.i386.rmp [Japanese documentaion] The base package is all you need to have for woring in English locale and without any documentation (except README and other basic docs). If you want to work in different locale other than English, install the anjuta-i18-* package. And if you want anjuta manual, tutorial and faq, install anjuta-docs-* package of the language you want (currently only en and ja are available). KNOWN ISSUES: ------------- * Printing is unstable with older versions of gnome-print and FreeType. If you experience crashes while printing, please upgrade gnome-print and FreeType to the latest stable versions (currently 0.36 and 2.1.2 respectively). * Debugger stepping may not work correctly if executables are compiled with optimization enabled (This is a GCC/GDB issue). If you plan to debug your application from Anjuta, please turn off optimization for debug builds. * Building anjuta on Debian (sid) may find a couple of issues related to zvt library. If you encounter such problem, temporarily move out any libzvt2 libraries that you can find. Build/install anjuta and restore the libzvt2 libs. * Building anjuta n Debian (sid) may also find gnome-terminal to be interfering. Uninstall it temporarily and restore it after installing anjuta. The above two debian (sid) problems may not apprear if anjuta rpms are installed. * Some versions of gettext (0.11.x) prompts to press Enter in the middle of project build (in anjuta). This will be a problem, as there is no known way to provide user feedback in anjuta message manager. Upgrade your gettext to higher version which does not exhibit this problem. gettext 0.11.40 and above should be just fine. * Calltips flicker when the cursor touches them if you have your window manager set to follow-mouse-cursor for focus. Change it to focus-follow mouse click to fix it. RUNNING: -------- To run Anjuta, choose Development->Anjuta from the GNOME Main Menu, or type: # anjuta If you get the shell error 'Command not found', then make sure your PATH variable contains the executable path of Anjuta binary (by default: /usr/local/bin). Usually, the PATH variable is set in the file /etc/profile. Check it out. Usage: anjuta [--no-splash | -s] [ files ...] [ project ] If you do not want to see the Anjuta splash screen / logo, run Anjuta with the command-line option "--no-splash". See the User Manual for further instructions. ** Good Luck **
