|                     How to add a new sample to wxWindows.
 | |
|                     =====================================
 | |
| 
 | |
| To add a new sample "foo" under directory "samples/foo" you need to do
 | |
| the following: (note that all this applies also to demos: just replace
 | |
| samples/ with demos/ where needed).
 | |
| 
 | |
| 1. Create the directory samples/foo locally and "cvs add" it
 | |
| 
 | |
| 2. Put the sources, headers and foo.rc file in it and "cvs add" them too
 | |
|    (don't forget to use "-kb" switch for binary files)
 | |
| 
 | |
| 3. Create the makefiles for Windows compilers. There are several ways to do
 | |
|    it:
 | |
|    a) copy the makefiles from samples/minimal, replace all occurences of
 | |
|       minimal with foo
 | |
|    b) use makegen (sources are under utils/makegen)
 | |
|    c) use projgen
 | |
| 
 | |
| 4. Modify configure.in and samples/configure.in for Unix compilation:
 | |
|    a) if the sample should only be built if "wxUSE_FOO" is enabled, locate
 | |
|       the test for "wxUSE_FOO = yes" in configure.in and add a line
 | |
|       SAMPLES_SUBDIRS="$SAMPLES_SUBDIRS foo" under it
 | |
|    b) if it should be always built, locate the line "if test $wxUSE_GUI = yes"
 | |
|       near the end of configure.in and modify the assignment to
 | |
|       SAMPLES_SUBDIRS to include "foo" (put in alphabetical order)
 | |
|    c) add foo/Makefile to AC_OUTPUT in samples/configure.in
 | |
| 
 | |
|    After this, regenerate configure and samples/configure from configure.in
 | |
|    by running "autoconf" on a Unix system in the corresponding directory.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 5. Add a short description of what the sample does and how does it work
 | |
|    to the "samples overview" section in the wxWindows manual. That section
 | |
|    lives in docs/latex/wx/tsamples.tex; look at the descriptions for other
 | |
|    samples, if you are not familiar with LaTeX.
