HowToStartYourOwnProject

Starting a new Sofa project


The simplest way is to start from the project given in src/Projects/myProject.zip

Contents of the project:

  • File myProject.pro describes the project. Trolltech's qmake utility is used to generate a Linux Makefile or a Visual C++ solution.
  • Compiling and linking generates the executable: ../../../bin/myProject (in the same directory as the dll it uses)

Change the name of the project:

  • Rename the parent repertory myProject to xxx
  • Rename the files myProject.pro and myProject.kdevelop to xxx.pro and xxx.kdevelop
  • Edit projet.bat, xxx.pro and xxx.kdevelop and replace all the "myProject" string to "xxx".

Compiling:
