### Build
|
|
|
|
#### Dexed
|
|
|
|
Dexed is mostly programmed in Object Pascal, using the the [Lazarus development platform](http://www.lazarus-ide.org/).
|
|
|
|
* [Download](http://lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php?page=downloads) and setup the latest Lazarus version (>= 1.8.0) and FPC + FPC sources (>= 3.0.4) for your platform.
|
|
* Windows: the three packages are bundled in an installer.
|
|
* Linux: the three packages must be downloaded and setup individually. It's recommended to download the packages from _SourceForge_ and not from the official repository of the distribution because they don't always propose the latest version.
|
|
* `cd <user dir where to clone>`
|
|
* `git clone https://github.com/BBasile/dexed.git`
|
|
* `git submodule update --init --recursive`, to clone the dependencies used by the background tool.
|
|
|
|
The Lazarus LCL and the FreePascal FCL may require patches that fix bugs or regressions present in the latest Lazarus release and for which Dexed cannot include workarounds.
|
|
Any `.patch` file located in the `patches/` folder should be applied. On linux you'll have to set the write permissions to `/usr/lib64/fpc` and `/usr/lib64/lazarus`.
|
|
|
|
You're now ready to build Dexed. This can be done in the IDE or using the _lazbuild_ utility.
|
|
|
|
* If you don't plan to develop the project, use _lazbuild_:
|
|
* open a console.
|
|
* `cd` to the repository location, sub folder **lazproj**.
|
|
* type `lazbuild -B dexed.lpi` and <kbd>ENTER</kbd>. note that the path to _lazbuild_ may have to be specified.
|
|
|
|
* If you plan to help developing you'd better get started with _Lazarus_, which is less conveniant:
|
|
* start Lazarus.
|
|
* setup `lazproj/cedsgncontrols.lpk` with Lazarus package manager (requires to rebuild Lazarus).
|
|
* in the **project** menu, click *open...* and select the file **dexed.lpi**, which is located in the sub-folder **lazproj**.
|
|
* in the menu **Execute** click **Create**.
|
|
|
|
After what Dexed should be build. The executable is output to the _bin_ folder.
|
|
|
|
#### Dastworx
|
|
|
|
The background tool used by the IDE is a D program.
|
|
|
|
* [Download](https://dlang.org/download.html#dmd) and setup latest DMD version.
|
|
* In the repository, browse to the `dastworx` folder.
|
|
* Windows: double click `build.bat`
|
|
* Linux: `sh ./build.sh`
|
|
|
|
You can also build it in CE using the project file _dastworx.ce_.
|
|
|
|
#### Third party tools:
|
|
|
|
Additionally you'll have to build [the completion daemon **DCD**](https://github.com/BBasile/DCD#setup) and the [D linter **Dscanner**](https://github.com/Hackerpilot/Dscanner#building-and-installing).
