@section requirements What does Edje require?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Edje requires fairly little on your system. to use the edje runtime library
|
||||||
|
you need:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Evas (library)
|
||||||
|
- Ecore (library)
|
||||||
|
- Eet (library)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To fully build Edje and run the edje builder (edje_cc) you also need:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Imlib2 (library)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Evas needs to be build with the PNG and EET image loades enabled at a
|
||||||
|
minimum. Edje uses X for the test program, so you will need the SOFTWARE_X11
|
||||||
|
engine built into Evas as well. A suggested configure list is below in the
|
||||||
|
"cheat sheet" for Evas.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Ecore needs the ECORE, ECORE_EVAS and ECORE_X modules built at a minimum.
|
||||||
|
It's suggested to build all the Ecore modules, but the ECORE_FB modules is
|
||||||
|
definitely optional.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Eet has no options so just build and install it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Imlib2 has options, but it will probably select the right ones when you build
|
||||||
|
and install it. You really want as many image loaders enabled as you can
|
||||||
|
manage. It's suggested at a minumum to have the PNG and JPEG loaders, but
|
||||||
|
include whatever loaders correspond to the image formats you want supported
|
||||||
|
for loading up and including into an Edje compiled file.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It is suggested right now that you get the latest CVS versions of the
|
||||||
|
required libraries. You also need to build them in the right order and make
|
||||||
|
sure the right options are enabled in the requiremed libraries. Here is a
|
||||||
|
quick "cheat sheet" on how to get started.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@verbatim
|
||||||
|
1. You need Eet from the HEAD cvs branch (must be up-to-date)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
cvs co e17/libs/eet
|

|
cd e17/libs/eet

make

2. You need Evas from the HEAD branch built with eet loader support.

3. You need Ecore from the SPLIT cvs branch
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
cvs co -r SPLIT e17/libs/ecore
|
||||||
|
cd e17/libs/ecore

|
||||||
|
make
|
||||||
|
sudo make install
|
||||||
|
cd
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. You need Imlib2 installed. any release from 1.0.0 and up will do.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

@section compiling How to compile and test Edje
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now you need to compile and install edje.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@verbatim
|
||||||
|
./configure
|
||||||
|
make
|
||||||
|
sudo make install
|
||||||
|
@endverbatim
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You now have it installed and ready to go, but you are missing data files. In
|
||||||
|
data/ there are data sets for you to look at as examples. To try one out do:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@verbatim
|
||||||
|
cd data
|
||||||
|
./e_logo.sh
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
edje ./e_logo.eet test
|
||||||
|
@endverbatim
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The edje test program/viewer is able to view multiple edje data sets. The
|
||||||
|
following will view 3 of them at once in the one window (which you can resize
|
||||||
|
to give you more space to move and resize the edje data sets around):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@verbatim
|
||||||
|
edje ./e_logo.eet test ./e_logo.eet test ./e_logo.eet test
|
||||||
|
@endverbatim
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@section details So how does this all work?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Edje inernally holds a geometry state machine and state graph of what is
|
||||||
|
visible, not, where, at what size, with what colours etc. This is described
|
||||||
|
to Edje from an Edje .eet file containing this information. These files can
|
||||||
|
be produced by using edje_cc to take a text file (a .edc file) and "compile"
|
||||||
|
an aoutput .eet file that contains this information, images and any other
|
||||||
|
data needed.
