Welcome to the Cappuccino Starter Package!
***********************************************************************
* Working with Text Editors
***********************************************************************
Included you should find the following:
This package includes syntax highlighting modes for both SubEthaEdit and TextMate.
1. Frameworks
2. NewApplication
3. README
***********************************************************************
* Installing the Development Tools
***********************************************************************
NewApplication is a stand alone Cappuccino application that you can use as a template to start building your own apps. To get started, just open up NewApplication/index.html in your favorite web browser. A great place to go from there is to read the "Downloading and Getting Started" tutorial found at http://cappuccino.org/learn/tutorials/starter-tutorial.php. This will walk you through these initial steps as well as getting you to do a little coding.
1. Navigate to Tools (the directory containing this README).
2. type sudo ./install-tools
3. Once installation is complete, you will be presented with a list of
options that looks something like this:
Installation of the Objective-J tools to /usr/local is almost complete!
Several environment variables must be set:
- PATH should include /usr/local/bin:
You can build your entire application right from this sample project, but if you want to dig a little deeper, you can also download the Tools package found at http://cappuccino.org/download/. This will set you up with some great additions like syntax modules for certain text editors and build tools to get extra performance.
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
(currently: /bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/Users/tolmasky/Development/Cappuccino/Tools/Scripts/:/usr/local/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/bin:/Users/tolmasky/bin)
- OBJJ_HOME should be set to /usr/local/share/objj:
export OBJJ_HOME=/usr/local/share/objj
(currently: )
- STEAM_BUILD should be set to the build directory of your choice (e.x. /Users/tolmasky/objj_build):
export STEAM_BUILD=/Users/tolmasky/objj_build
(currently: )
4. Chances are you can ignore the first two options. If you chose to install everything to the default location, it should work fine without further modification.
5. Steam (see below) allows you to specify a global Build directory. If you wish to use it, you must set the STEAM_BUILD environment variable. Building Cappuccino from source requires this for example.
**********************************************************************
* objj
**********************************************************************
objj is a command line Objective-J interpreter and interactive console.
**********************************************************************
* objjc
**********************************************************************
objjc is a static preinterpreter for Objectie-J. It will take Objective-J files and essentially convert them to JavaScript. However, for complex interaction between files, you will probably want to use steam (see below).
***********************************************************************
* steam
***********************************************************************
Steam is a simple tool for managing Objective-J projects. Among other things, it allows you to statically pre-interpret entire Objective-J applications so that you can deliver it without requiring client-side pre-interpretation.
