[Uml-user] building umbrello from svn

[vrich12-umbrello at yahoo.fr]

Hi Roleic,
 
 I am not an Umbrello expert yet, but I had the same issue when I first started to check Umbrello out of svn.
 
 Here is what I had to do on my Debian Sarge (stable) intallation:
 
 svn checkout svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.5/kde-common
 svn checkout -N svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.5/kdesdk
 cd kdesdk
 svn update umbrello
 ln -s ../kde-common/admin .
 export AUTOCONF=autoconf
 export AUTOHEADER=autoheader
 export AUTOMAKE=automake
 make -f Makefile.cvs
 ./configure --prefix=/usr
 cd umbrello
 make
 
 Apparently, I am not supposed to do the export commands but I can't do without them.
 
 Be sure to replace 3.5 in the svn checkout commands by the KDE branch you are interested in.
 If this is KDE4 you're using, I guess the checkout commands should be:
 svn checkout svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kde-common
 svn checkout -N svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdesdk
 
 I hope that helps,
 
    Vincent

Objet : [Uml-user] building umbrello from svn

Hello umbrello experts,

Question:
Please, could someone either give me a hint on how to compile umbrello from 
svn or at least where to read up on the necessary build process. (if possible 
in beginner level compatible language.)

Situation:
I use a Kanotix box (debian unstable). I managed to check out the umbrello 
code from the KDE repository using Kdesvn.
However, I do not know how to compile it. I checked the installation page and 
FAQ of umbrello but neither instructions worked out for me. Neither make nor 
make -f Makefile.cvs worked but gave me missing-file-messages (no Makefile, 
no configure file). Obviously my knowledge of building KDE source code is 
almost inexistent maybe because I'd like to learn python first before 
adressing C and C++.

Motivation:
I am in the process of learning python being my first prog. language. Now I 
read that the current svn version of umbrello can read python and display it 
as UML. This can be very useful for a beginner to gain an overview of 
existing python code and learn from it. That's what open source is about, 
isn't it. In the latest published umbrello release 1.5.1 this does not yet 
work due to a bug. But the current svn version is announced to have it fixed. 
The next umbrello release 1.5.2 comes out probably only sometime in april.

Thank you for your help
roleic
