Hi Chinmaya,

you should subscribe to the amarok-devel at kde.org mailing list for
development questions.

Please have a look at these instructions:

if you follow it step by step it should be quite easy to do.

That entirely depends on your personal preferences, some people just
use vim, other use Qt Creator or KDevelop.

Just to avoid problems: Amarok currently depends on Qt 4.5 and KDE
4.4, although we plan to go to Qt 4.6 and KDE 4.5 any day now. Please
make sure you don't use functions introduced in a later Qt version.

For more informations about coding style please refer to our hacking guide:
