preface

To start mms development it is strongly recommended to use the Mrphine development package called mms-development-<version>.tar.gz. This can be obtained in the Download section of this website. See mms development package?

It is necessary that the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable is properly set to <morphine-prefix>/lib/pkgconfig


create a template
Extract the archive using the command:

tar -xzvf mms-development-<version>.tar.gz 

change to the newly created directory:

cd mms-development-<version>

The package contains a plugin wizard which can help to create a development environment. Create an empty OSD Plugin by issuing following command:

./createplugin.sh name=myfirstplugin prefix=~/workspace

This will create a empty osd plugin template named myfirstplugin in your home directory. See mms development plugin wizard? for more information.

cd ~/workspace/myfirstplugin
