Getting The Code
To obtain the source code, you will need:
- Subversion 1.3 or later.
- Terminal or svnX.
To compile the code, you will need:
- Mac OS X 10.4.x (tiger) or newer.
- Xcode 2.3 or newer.
Getting Subversion
Information on downloading and installing Subversion can be found over at the Installing Subversion page.
Downloading the Source Code
Providing you have Xcode and subversion installed correctly, downloading the source code is fairly straight forward.
In the following example we are going to download ButtonBuilder into a folder called "SVNProjects" in our documents folder. We're going to use the Terminal, but you could use svnX. It's a really easy to use Cocoa client.
Don't worry if you don't have an "SVNProjects" folder as it will automatically be created when you run the checkout command in the terminal.
- Launch the Terminal.
- Type the following command, remember to substitute the last part of the command for your local path:
svn checkout http://realmacforge.com/svn/trunk/ButtonBuilder/ Documents/SVNProjects/ButtonBuilder
- You will see Terminal listing out the ButtonBuilder source files as it downloads them to your Documents folder.
- That's it! You should now be able to open and build the project in Xcode. Have fun!
