Developers

Getting the sources

In addition to browsing the sources here, you can check out the sources with your favorite subversion client.

Keep in mind that, unlike cvs, tags and branches are ordinary directories in subversion. With the typical subversion respository layout, it is rather easy to checkout more than you probably intend to. To pull just the trunk version, use something like

mkdir acpi_workspace
cd acpi_workspace
svn checkout http://svn.netlabs.org/repos/acpi/trunk trunk

To update your workspace with the current repository content, use

cd acpi_workspace\trunk
svn update

Driver developers that wish to make their drivers ACPI compliant will find the ACPI toolkit useful.

As all Wiki pages, this page is editable, this means that you can modify the contents of this page simply by using your web-browser. Simply click on the "Edit this page" link at the bottom of the page. WikiFormatting will give you a detailed description of available Wiki formatting commands.

"trac-admin yourenvdir initenv" created a new Trac environment, containing a default set of wiki pages and some sample data. This newly created environment also contains documentation to help you get started with your project.

You can use trac-admin to configure Trac to better fit your project, especially in regard to components, versions and milestones.

TracGuide is a good place to start.
