Getting Started

The following steps are mandatory:

get source
configure your build system with CMake
compile Rocs
install Rocs
setup your KDEDIRS path and run kbuildsycoca4
run Rocs

Now the steps with more details:

Get the Source

You can fetch the sources from [Rocs Projects Page] by cloning the Git repository. Let's say you fetch the source to: "$HOME/rocs-source"

Configure Your Build-System

Next, we need folders for building and for installing Rocs. Let's say

$HOME/rocs-build
$HOME/rocs-install

Then we need to say the build-scripts that those folders exist. Very comfortable this can be done by using the program cmake-gui. Take care to set the following:

Source-directory is: $HOME/rocs-source
Build-directory is: $HOME/rocs-build
set: CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE = debugfull
set: CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX = $HOME/rocs-install

Then press "configure" to see if all necessary libraries are present. Finally generate make-files if nothing is red anymore.

Run Rocs

It is necessary that the following two steps are done:

export KDEDIRS=$HOME/rocs-install:$KDEDIRS
kbuildsycoca4

Finally, you can run Rocs by executing the compiled and installed binary in $HOME/rocs-install.
