Cross-platform FlySight viewer

FlySight Viewer

Libraries

1. FlySight Viewer should be built using Qt 5.5.1. Later versions of Qt do not include QWebView, which is used by MapView.
2. VLC-Qt builds can be found here: https://github.com/vlc-qt/vlc-qt/releases. For Qt 5.5, use VLC-Qt 1.0.
3. wwWidgets is located here: http://www.wysota.eu.org/wwwidgets/#download. For Qt 5 compatibility, wwWidgets must be built from source.
4. HTTPS requires the OpenSSL binaries. To build OpenSSL using MinGW:
5. Download and install MSYS2 from http://www.msys2.org/
6. Update the package database as indicated in instructions
7. Prepare the MSYS2 build environment as shown here: http://wiki.qt.io/MSYS2
8. Follow the instructions here to install OpenSSL: http://wiki.qt.io/Compiling_OpenSSL_with_MinGW
9. Copy libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll to the FlySight Viewer distribution folder

# Build FlySightViewer
cd flysight-viewer-qt/src
qmake
make

If you have trouble building FlySight Viewer on Linux, check your Qt version number using the following command:

qmake --version

FlySight Viewer requires Qt version 5.5. If you have a different version installed, you will need to follow these steps to build with Qt 5.5:

1. Download Qt 5.5 from https://www.qt.io/download-open-source/. Install to ~/Qt.
2. Edit FlySightViewer.pro to add the following lines:

LIBS += -L/home/$USER/Qt/5.5/gcc_64/lib
INCLUDEPATH += /home/$USER/Qt/5.5/gcc_64/include
INCLUDEPATH += /home/$USER/Qt/5.5/gcc_64/include/QtCore

3. Run make again.
