PREREQUISITES qmake (you don't need the whole Qt stuff for the non-GUI parts, just qmake) glib (for the core library) mad (for MP3 transfer, can be disabled) libgcrypt (for PCM transfer, can be disabled) Qt (for the GUI) BUILDING This project uses the qmake build system to cooperate with the Qt Creator IDE. To compile in Qt Creator, just open md.pro. To compile at the command line, run qmake make Depending on the default configuration of your system, you will find the executables in the debug subdirectory, the release subdirectories or directly in the directories qhimdtransfer and himdtest. To disable the optional features, the following keywords are recognized in the CONFIG variable: without_mad -> disables MP3 support; you wont need mad without_gcrypt -> disables PCM support; you wont need gcrypt without_gui -> disables qhimdtransfer; you wont need Qt and sox So, the minimal configuration is built by using qmake CONFIG+=without_mad CONFIG+=without_gcrypt CONFIG+=without_gui
