How to build/compile mBlock?

#1

How can I compile/build mBlock?
Can you provide a detailed description?

#2

Can you be a bit clearer on what you are trying to do? Are you downling the mblock sourcecode from github or the binaries?

#3

I’ve downloaded the source code and want to compile (because of a new translation).

#4

Just found out, that I don’t have to compile it to test a new translation.
Didn’t know that mBlock looks at C:\Users<username>\Documents\mBlock\locale for the language files. :wink:

#5

Where to put this file on Mac OS X? Edit: found it, but not all text is translated.

#6

I tried to compile the sources.
Not in order to get a new translation, but to understand where the compile time errors stem from that I currently get when deploying sample code for the LED matrix.

I used FDT for Eclipse to work on the code.
Have not been completelly successful yet:

  • Some unresolved classes
  • Some undefined functions in MBlock.as
  • Some casting errors
  • Some missing *.wav files.

Has someone been successful in getting through this, e.g. with Apache Flex?

Any way, I didn’t find the formatter for MeLEDMatrix, so I wonder whether current source version has already been checked in into GitHub.
