VM Chooser Helper Program
==================================
This is the program used by the vmchooser-plugin, which
is part of the openslx-system.
==================================
FAQ
==================================
What does it do?
It handles xml-files for the virtual-machines plugins
or linux sessions after the login-screen.
If chosen, it starts the proper virtualizer script or the linux session
as a background process and terminates itself.
How can I build it?
This project has been converted to cmake and can be built by
"cmake <Path to vmchooser source> && make". With cmake, this can be built
in an arbitrary directory.
UPDATE: You can build it by changing into the directory "build", calling "./make.sh"
How can I install it?
See below
What command-line parameters are available?
"-p|--path=" In this (abolute) path are your xml-files for the virtualizer-plugin
"-l|--lpath=" In this (absolute) path are your linux sessions
"-g|--group=" Show only entries valid for this group
"-h|--help" Show help
==================================
You just need to compile this, if you have local changes.
The most recent svn version is also included in binary format
in the main folder of this openslx-distribution.
Enter "cmake <path to vmchooser source> && make" to compile everything.
UPDATE: There is a script in the build-directory to simplify building.
Enter "cp vmchooser ../../../../openslx/trunk/os-plugins/plugins/vmchooser/files/"
to install it to the proper path of the svn distribution of openslx
(only if the build-path is [SVN ROOT]/openslx-src-tools/vmchooser/trunk/somefolder/).
Do not forget to enter "make install" in [SVN ROOT]/openslx/trunk .
Needed libraries to compile:
- All sorts of X libs and development files
- fltk-2 (included - see note *)
- libxml2 (included - libxml2-dev on Ubuntu)
* Boost Libraries (static - dynamic versions can
be enabled by changing the CMakelists.txt -
specifically commenting out the
Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS variable definition)
(libboost-dev/libboost-[regex|filesystem|system]-dev on Ubuntu)
- libboost-regex_s
- libboost_filesystem_s
- libboost_system_s
Most probably (for fltk2-includes):
- libpng-dev (libpng12-dev on Ubuntu)
- libjpeg-dev (libjpeg-dev on Ubuntu)
- libxi-dev (libxi-dev on Ubuntu)
- libxinerama-dev (libxinerama-dev on Ubuntu)
- libxrender-dev (libxrender-dev on Ubuntu)
- libxconfig1-dev (libxconfig1-dev on Ubuntu)
- libxft-dev (libxft-dev on Ubuntu)
Needed libraries to run:
- All sorts of X libs
- libxml2
===================================
* Some static libraries of fltk - svn version - and libxml2 are located
in fltk/ and libxml2/ and are used to link against this program.
- as images are enabled, you should have libjpeg and libpng too.
