Hacking:API documentation
From GIMP Developer Wiki
See API documentation at developer.gimp.org (outdated).
To always have an up-to-date API documentation, do the following.
1. | configure --prefix=$PREFIX --enable-gtk-doc --enable-gtk-doc-app |
If you got the sources directly from the Git repository, use autogen.sh instead of configure. | |
The parameters have the following meaning: | |
--enable-gtk-doc : use gtk-doc to build documentation | |
--enable-gtk-doc-app : build developer documentation for app (not only the libgimp* libraries). | |
To find out more parameters, run configure --help | |
$PREFIX is a variable for the directory you will install GIMP in. | |
2. | make |
3. | make install |
4. | cd $PREFIX/share/gtk-doc/html |
5. | From the desired subdirectory open the file index.html for an overview of that module. |
