8 How to build the UISimulators
Robert Hak4c539392002-08-21 10:23:10 +00009
10Terminology
11
12 The hardware is mainly separated in two different versions. The "Player" is
13 the Archos Jukebox Player 6000 and Archos Studio 20, while the "Recorder" is
14 the Archos Recorder 20. The "Player" has a character-based LCD screen with 2
15 lines of 11 letters and a big round thing on the keypad (featuring 6
16 different keys), while the "Recorder" has a graphical LCD and has all its 10
17 keys separate.

191. Get Sources
20
21 The the very latest sources off the CVS server. Get the 'tools' dir,
22 'firmware' dir, the 'apps' dir and the 'uisimulator' dir on the same dir
23 level, to make it easier to build things (some of the files assume this
24 hierarchy).

282. Build Uisimulator
29
30 For the X11 simulator:
31
32 (This has been compiled and run on at least Solaris and Linux. It should
33 work on other unixes too but we haven't tried any other yet.)
34
35 Create a new directory and run the 'tools/configure' script in
36 there. Select target to simulate and select simulation. The script will
37 then generate a Makefile for you:
38
39 $ mkdir build-dir
40 $ cd build-dir
41 $ ../tools/configure
42
43 [ answer to questions ]
44
45 [ Makefile created, archos subdirectory created ]
46
47 $ make
Jonas Häggqvist80324d12005-06-26 22:47:19 +000048 $ make install
Robert Hak4c539392002-08-21 10:23:10 +000049 $ ./rockboxui
50
51 Note that the simulator uses a local subdirectory named 'archos' as "root
52 directory" for the simulated box. Copy a bunch of mp3 files into that
53 directory, create subdirectories and do all sorts of things you want to be
54 able to browse when you fire up the simulator.
55
56
57 For the Win32 simulator:
58
59 No info yet.
60
613. Run Uisimulator
62
63 To create a simulated disk drive for the simulator to see, create a
64 subdirectory named 'archos' and populate it with a bunch of test
65 files/directories.
66
67 Run 'rockboxui'.
68
694. Target Keypad Equivalents
70
71 The keyboard's numerical keypad is used to simulate the Archos keypads:
