Download Wonder Source, Build and Install

Introduction

Instead of downloading the Wonder binaries, working from the latest source code directly can have some advantages such as:

• Ability to browse the source code and learn from the wisdom and experience of the WO committers
• Put breakpoints in and step through Wonder source when debugging your projects
• Provide opportunities to submit patches to bugs you might find in Wonder
• Add logging statements in Wonder source so you can better understand what is going when tracking down hard to find bugs

This documents my 'ideal' setup on my own system. I am sure there are variations. Wiki contributors may want to add other pages for what they consider other ideal Wonder setups

Downloading Wonder Source from CVS

• Decide on a directory where you will maintain the latest Wonder source tree on your hard drive. I have a directory '_{/WonderLatest' in my home folder.}
• Open a terminal shell and navigate to the directory

• Next perform initial checkout of Wonder source tree from CVS head using the following command. This creates a folder named Wonder
