Description
===========

Caneda is an open source EDA software suite focused on ease of use and portability. Its main goal is to handle the complete design process: schematic capture, simulation and circuit layout or PCB. Caneda aims to support all kinds of circuit simulation types, e.g. DC, AC, S-parameter and harmonic balance analysis.

For details visit the project's homepage:

http://www.caneda.org


Requirements
============

In order to compile Caneda sources, you will need the following libraries
installed in your system:

  * Qt
  * Cmake
  * Qwtplot


Getting the latest git snapshot
===============================

You can always get the latest Caneda version from our git repository. Please
use an official release if you want to work with Caneda.  The git version might
not even compile.

`$ git clone https://github.com/Caneda/Caneda`


Installation
============

These are generic installation instructions.

If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try to figure
out how _cmake_ could check whether to do them, and mail diffs or instructions
to the authors so they can be considered for the next release.

Unpack the distribution tarball:

`$ tar xvzf caneda-<version>.tar.gz`

Change into the source directory:

`$ cd caneda-<version>`

Create a new directory for Cmake to work in:

`$ mkdir build`

Change into the recently created directory:

`$ cd build`

Configure the source package for your system:

`$ cmake ../`

Compile the package:

`$ make`

Install Caneda:

`$ make install`

You must have root privileges if you want to install the package in the
standard location (`/usr/local`) or in any location that is only writable by
root.


Compilers and Options
=====================

Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that _cmake_
does not know about.  Run `./cmake --help` for details on some of the pertinent
environment variables.

You can give _cmake_ initial values for configuration parameters by setting
variables in the command line or in the environment.  Here is an example:

`$ ./cmake CC=c89 CFLAGS=-O2 LIBS=-lposix`


Installation Directory
======================

By default, `make install` will install the package's files in
`/usr/local/bin`, `/usr/local/man`, etc.  You can specify an installation
prefix other than `/usr/local` by giving _cmake_ the option `--prefix=PATH`.

You can specify separate installation prefixes for architecture-specific files
and architecture-independent files.  If you give _cmake_ the option
`--exec-prefix=PATH`, the package will use _PATH_ as the prefix for installing
programs and libraries. Documentation and other data files will still use the
regular prefix.

In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give options like
`--bindir=PATH` to specify different values for particular kinds of files.

MIME Types and Files Association
================================
Optionally you may want to get Caneda's file types associated with the application
itself. In order to do so, run the following command as root:

`$ update-mime-database /usr/local/share/mime`


Doxygen Documentation
=====================

Caneda uses Doxygen as its developers code documentation. To generate the
doxygen documentation, use the Doxyfile file provided at the source's root.
