Install And Run
These are instructions to install and run the CSnake tool.
In order to run CSnake you will need to have installed:
- Python version 2.7 (download 2.7.6)
- CMake version 2.8 (download)
- A compiler (supposing that you want to use CSnake to configure some code!): CSnake mainly supports Microsoft Visual Studio and Unix Makefiles.
A Microsoft Windows installer for CSnake is available. You can download it from the releases page, double click on it and follow the instructions. This will install CSnake on your machine. You can then run it from the start menu.
A 'CSnake' shortcut should be available in the 'start' menu. Otherwise, locate the installation folder and run the 'csnGUI.exe' file.
An 'Uninstall CSnake' shortcut should be available in the 'start' menu. Otherwise, locate the installation folder and run the 'uninstall.exe' file.
Local information is stored in the user's folder under '.csnake'.
When first run, CSnake will create a .csnake folder in the user folder. This folder contains:
-
options: CSnake options containing the last opened contexts, -
log.txt: the CSnake log file (its configuration is inresources/logging.conf), -
errors.txt: the errors created by external tools like when launching CMake.
To run from source, check out the Developer steps.
wxPython (used for development) blocks us from using a version of python superior to 2.7 and does not seem to anticipate the update for now (see wxpython TentativeRoadmap and ProjectPhoenix/Python2to3Issues) [as of 01/01/2016].
