Developer Getting Started
- Install each of the items listed in BuildRequirements.
- Get the code from Subversion
- Open a DOS/terminal window where the code is (e.g. c:\workspace\wikidpad\work)
To run WikidPad from source
from the working directory (e.g. c:\workspace\wikidpad\work):
set PYTHONPATH=lib python WikidPad.py
To build and generate executable
py2exe must be installed for this to work.
set PYTHONPATH=lib bld.bat
This will generate a "build" directory and a "dist" directory.
To create a WikidPad.exe distribution
Modify the version number of wikidPad in all 3 of the following places:
setup.py wikidpad_unicode.iss and the constant "VERSION_STRING" in WikidPadStarter.py.
(Yes, this could be better.)
Finally, double click "wikidpad_unicode.iss" and compile it with ISTool/Inno Setup.
