[Qgis-developer] QGIS Source Compile and Plugin Development

[maaza mekuria]

Anyone knows or has documentation to help me progress with the plugin development? 

Here is my status. 

I use windows XP and Visual C++ Express 2008. I have a working copy of a build that I was able to compile QGIS. I tried inserting a project and making a plugin from scratch, and I find it needs a lot of other libraries. I then tried copying an existing plugin and tried to modify it, and it seems there are too many files that are needed to compile plugin and it just keeps giving error message after another. Do we have a minimum number set of headers/libraries/files that are required to compile a plugin? 

Is there any guide for the windows platform on plugin development? 
I have looked at the Linux plugin sample given in the introduction developer document and have tried to follow it in Windows and I have not been able to compile the plugin. 

Thank you,

Maaza

Yes, I need help until I find a solution to the plugin development. 

I may have to hire my own plugin consultant to overcome this handicap. 

I resorted to my working copy (I am glad I kept a copy of the 
source and project files of the previous compilation) and now I 
need help to see why it is not able to find the PyQT4 python
module. Any ideas where it is hiding?


Check the error log below from the +
