## Developer

### How to compile the source code?

Before starting, you need the following prerequisites:

-   Android SDK: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

-   Android NDK: http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html

-   Git: http://git-scm.com/

    (Use `sudo apt-get install git-core` on a proper OS)

Get the source code:

    git clone git://github.com/nwf/vimtouch.git && cd vimtouch

Now prepare the development environment:

    ANDROID_SDK_HOME=~/path/to/android/sdk

    ANDROID_NDK_ROOT=~/path/to/android/ndk

    ./prepare-clean-checkout.sh

You're ready to compile it!

   ${ANDROID_SDK_HOME}/tools/templates/gradle/wrapper/gradlew assembleDebug

   ${ANDROID_NDK_ROOT}/ndk-build;

   for i in libs/*; do cp $i/vim $i/libvim.so; done

   ${ANDROID_SDK_HOME}/tools/templates/gradle/wrapper/gradlew assembleDebug

Yes, we need to run the build loop twice at the moment.  It is less than

ideal, but it does produce an executable that can hobble along at least.
