We have set up a Maemo SDK VMWare Appliance for those who want a quick start to Maemo development.
Using Eclipse with ESbox plugin
ChangeLog entry for this version:
* The latest PyMaemo.
* Eclipse 3.3.1.1 with CDT 4.0.2, PyDev 1.3.14 and ESbox 1.3.6 plugins.
* Using Open VM Tools ver. 2008.02.13-77928
* Using kernel for virtualization.
* Scripts to automate image creation.
* EFL (ecore, evas, etc. and python-evas) installed from extras repository (instead from CVS source).
* Nokia Binaries installers fixed.
* Vala not included in this version.
This is an update of the previous appliances, bundled with the latest softwares (check the ChangeLog) and some fixes.
The Open VM Tools (that thing responsible for drag'n'drop and copy'n'paste between) used in this version of the appliance is quite good, but there is a chance that it stop working. If this happens, reboot the vitrual machine.
Note: this version is the smallest download so far, thanks to "vmware-toolbox" shrink utility.
Pre-requisites:
How to run:
We are using 7zip for the compressing. In a Ubuntu/Debian system installing it is as easy as sudo apt-get install p7zip-full, MS Windows users can download it from its home.
You can also perform the steps with using the graphical tools and double-clicking the maemo-vmware-0.6.vmx file.
