Want to setup an IDE to debug / develop synfig ?

Here, we will not discuss of witch IDE is better or if real hacker do all with vi/emacs

Clone the code my dear

This assume you already cloned the code from git

Anjuta from gnu/linux

(Tested with Anjuta 3.14.0)

What Anjuta is?

First build !

This will generate all needed makefile

Open "autobuild/synfigstudio-linux-build.sh" and change "DEBUG=0" to "DEBUG=1" (line 76)
Build from "autobuild/synfigstudio-linux-build.sh"
During this time install "anjuta" from synaptic or whatever ... (from xubuntu 14.10 you must install Anjuta 3.14 from this ppa for example : see here why)

when anjuta installed and synfig builded....

Import synfig (etl / core / studio) projects in Anjuta

Open Anjuta, in "Action" choose "Import a project" and choose your code location (synfig/ETL , synfig/synfig-core or synfig/synfig-studio)
Select a project name and Import
At the project backend choice, select "Autotools" and go for it (if you kept the default project name, replace the existing project with the new one)
Wait a minute ... project loaded !

Repeat for each synfig project

Your now able to build from Anjuta.

Want to debug maybe ?

From Anjuta "<Menu> → <Execute> → <Program Paramter> → Program" : select synfig-studio binary "/home/user/synfig/bin" (i also setup the working directory)
Now you need to clean the project and build it again (but this time from anjuta)
Anjuta "<Menu> → <Build> → Clean"
Anjuta "<Menu> → <Build> → Build"

you (shouldbe) are ready to debug / improve / patch and share !

Extra note

As Anjuta projects are saved in git examined folders, you could have sort of behavior when you git your code ... personally i have made a little script to backup/restore my own project to keep the folder safe of undesired change (.gitignore is also git surveyed !)

Eclipse from gnu/linux

(Tested with Eclipse 3.8.1)

What Eclipse is?

First build !

This will generate all needed makefile

Open "autobuild/synfigstudio-linux-build.sh" and change "DEBUG=0" to "DEBUG=1" (line 76)
Build from "autobuild/synfigstudio-linux-build.sh"
During this time install "eclipse" & "eclispe-cdt" packages from synaptic or whatever ...

when eclipse installed and synfig builded....

Import synfig (etl / core / studio) projects in Eclipse

Open Eclipse, choose your desired place for the workspace (i recommend not in ./synfig folder if you want to commit, better just above)

For each synfig component (etl / core / studio ...)

Eclipse / Menu / Makefile project with existing code
Choose your project name (etl / core / studio ...)
Select code location (synfig/ETL , synfig/synfig-core or synfig/synfig-studio)
Select your toolchain ... and click Finish ... and Wait a little ...

Your now able to build from Eclipse.

Want to debug maybe ?

From "Project Explorer" panel, select your project properties (alt+enter / menu-project or right clicking)
In "C/C++ Build" Uncheck "Use default build command" and put a "make -j2 install" (-jXX at your connivance ...)
In "Run/Debug Setting" click "New" or "Edit..." , in C/C++ Application , browse and select the synfig-studio binary from "/home/user/synfig/bin"

Stop on Startup, what the heck ?

Make sure you are in the c++ perspective, then go to menu Run -> Debug Configurations. Make sure your application is chosen in the left pane, press the Debugger tab, and uncheck Stop on startup at: checkbox. How to stop GDB from executing “break main” by default in Eclipse?

you (shouldbe) are ready to debug / improve / patch and share !

Have a functional environment

Add Includes paths to Code Analysis

From "Project Explorer" panel, select your project properties (alt+enter / menu-project or right clicking)
In C/C++ General / Paths and Symbols / Includes , add all the paths you need (ETL / Synfig-core / Cairo / Gtkmm ....)

Netbeans from gnu/linux

(Tested with Netbeans 8.0.2)
What Netbeans is?
Done following the video tutorial made by Konstantin Dmitriev (in russian ;))
Assuming the source will be installed in /home/yourUsername/sources/synfig.single in the screenshots
Don't forget to replace it with your own userName!

Install Netbeans

Be aware you need to have a JDK devel package installed on your machine to be able to install Netbeans
On Fedora, I had to install it with the following command "yum install -y java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel"

Install "Netbeans" from synaptic or from the original download page, if not done already ...

First build !

This will generate all needed makefile

Open "autobuild/synfigstudio-linux-build.sh" and change "DEBUG=0" to "DEBUG=1" (line 76)

OR

Another possibility (like on the video) is to set DEBUG=1 (and a space) before the script name in the console

in the console enter:" /home/yourUsername/sources/synfig.single/autobuild/synfigstudio-linux-build.sh"

when Netbeans installed and synfig builded....

Import synfig (etl / core / studio) projects in Netbeans

Open Netbeans
Open File/New Project....

1. Choose Project

Choose "C/C++ Project" under "Categories",
Choose "C/C++ Project with Existing Sources"

2. Select Mode

Source folder	/home/yourUsername/sources/synfig.single
Build Host	localhost
Tools Collection	Default(GNU (GNU))
Configuration Mode	Custom

3. Build Tool

Using an existing makefile

"/home/yourUsername/sources/synfig.single/synfig-studio/Makefile"

Uncheck "Clean and Build after Finish"

4. Build Action

Working Directory	`"/home/yourUsername/sources/synfig.single/synfig-studio"`
Build Command	`"${MAKE} -f Makefile -j 4 install"`
Clean Command	`"${MAKE} -f Makefile clean"`
Build Result	`"/home/yourUsername/synfig/bin/synfigstudio"`

5. Source Files

Add "/home/yourUsername/sources/synfig.single"

6. Code Assistance Configuration

Choose "Automatic Configuration"

7. Project Name and Location

Project Name	`"synfig.single"`
Project Location	`"/home/yourUsername/sources"`
Project Folder	`"/home/yourUsername/sources/synfig.single"`
Build Host	`"localhost"`
Tool Collection	Default(GNU (GNU))}

Press "Finish"
Wait a minute ... project loaded !

Your now able to build from Netbeans.
