[libksd-devel] scons problem/Compile from cvs?

[Leon W. <l.w...@fz...>]

Hi,

First of all, I want to say I am impressed with the enormous
amount of work you have put into libksd. I looks like the
encapsulation of SDL functionality is very much C++ conform,
and feels very logical.

As you well know, there are some problems with libksd-0.0.4. My
problem is that a menu I created (a dialog wich pops up only after
pressing another button) does not seem to get input events.
I feel this has been changed in 0.1-pre3, with the MoveToFront()
function, but I cannot really tell since I cannot get the CVS
sources to compile.

I have found out that I need pkg-config for libsigc, and scons
for configuring/compiling libksd(CVS). Unfortunately, scons
only processes the src/ directory and I can't seem to find a
way to create ksd_gui, which is what I want. I wonder whether
you have a solution for this.

You also might want to add a section to the README in the CVS
sources. Something like Compiling from CVS, in which pointers
to pkg-config and scons are given. It is not obvious from=20
libsigc it uses pkg-config, and pkg-config is not installed
everywhere. The same holds for scons.

I really hope you can tell me how to compile the CVS version,
as I cannot really do very much without a working dialog.

BTW: The documentation of the header files was surprisingly
complete. Maybe if I get my own stuff to work I can write a=20
little tutorial game. I want to play with libksd anyway, so
why not write it down?
