[Qgis-developer] Confusion over QGIS API versions

[Thomas Gratier]

Hello,

I don't know how you do but when I need the trunk api, I do a clone

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
git clone https://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS.git
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

After I use doxygen (graphviz is needed too) to generate my API docs
You can find a minimum doc about it at
http://www-scf.usc.edu/~peterchd/doxygen/

So after your clone, you go into Quantum-GIS dir with

--------------------------
cd Quantum-GIS
--------------------------

If you want a particular branch, for example, do a

--------------------------------
git branch final-1_7_0
--------------------------------

and you finish with

---------------------------
doxygen Doxyfile
---------------------------

Go into api_doc and open the browser with

---------------------------
cd api_doc
firefox index.html
---------------------------

At the end, you will no depend from online docs.
I agree that info about the right API version is not well explained so +1 to
add it in docs.

Regards

ThomasG
