Developer's Corner

This is a new experience ... providing information on the web site for fellow GNQS developers.  I hope what's here is useful, and I'd love to hear what else you'd like to see on here.

Before we go any further, if you are interested at all in getting involved with future work on GNQS, or you just want to keep your ear to the ground, then I strongly urge you to subscribe to the NQS Developers Mailing List.

First off, we've got the following short papers for you, which explain the GNQS development process.

  • Overview Of Generic NQS Development
  • Becoming A Generic NQS Developer
  • Becoming A Generic NQS Maintainer
  • Submitting Patches

These papers look specifically at how our development is done using source control and the master copy of the source code:

  • Introduction To Source Control
  • Software You Need, And Where To Get It
  • Introducing To Using Perforce In A Disconnected Environment
  • The Generic NQS Source Trees
  • Other Notes On Using Perforce

These papers list policy we've adopted for development (listed alphabetically):

  • Installation Software
  • Portability
  • Naming Conventions For Directories, Files, Functions & Variables
  • What Goes Into Which Source Tree

GNQS hackers are encouraged to contribute any short articles on specific parts of GNQS, especially when they submit changes to me ;-)
