How to help ZScreen by becoming a Project Member
Featured, Phase-QA
Updated Oct 8, 2011 by mcored

Introduction

You have decided to contribute code to ZScreen? Great! Here are the steps that will get you easily

Help Needed

  • When ZScreen fails upload because of the fact that there is no proxy set up, ZScreen needs to detect this and prompt the user for Proxy Configuration
  • Show in Windows Explorer - How to open Windows Explorer and select the file

Requirements

  1. Visual Studio 2008 or above
  2. TortoiseSVN or AnkhSVN for SVN access
  3. Google Code Password

Getting Started

  1. Send an email to zscreen@googlegroups.com just to say that you would like to join. This is only needed so we can add you as a Project Member.
  2. Download your preferred SVN Client
  3. Retrieve your Google Code password from http://code.google.com/hosting/settings

Using TortoiseSVN

  • Create a new folder called "ZScreen" in your Projects folder
  • Right click and click "SVN Checkout"

  • Check out the following URL
  • https://zscreen.googlecode.com/svn

  • Press OK
  • Double click the ZScreen.sln to open the solution Visual C# Express or Visual Studio

Using AnkhSVN

Visual Studio 2008

Once you have installed AnkhSVN, you will see a new menu item in File > Open menu:

Click this and press the Add Repository URL

Paste

https://zscreen.googlecode.com/svn/trunk

in the text box and press OK:

Double click on ZScreen.sln:

Press OK for the screen after that:

AnkhSVN

AnkhSVN will download the project to the path you have specified.

Once you have modified your code in ZScreen,

  1. Type a message describing the change
  2. Press the Commit button to upload the code

If this is the first time, AnkhSVN will ask for the user name and password. Simply input your Gmail address and the Google Code password (Note: this is not the GMail password)

You are done! :)
