To use it, you have +to link the binary of your program against "libkab.so", a DLL that exports +kab's functions, and to include the header file "kabapi.h" in the KDE +include directory into your sources. + +The documentation of the kab API is contained in the header file +(kabapi.h), you can extract it by parsing the file with kdoc. The kab +binary source directory in the kdeutils package contains a sample program +that tries to explain some basic functions of the API. It is important +that you report any bugs you find in the API or in the rest of kab to + + mirko@kde.org + +Since it is used in different other applications, and I cannot imagine all +the possible situations that might occur. Read the file README for some +details about the compiler environment you need to get this sources +compiled. Most of the possible problems should by now already be solved +automatically by the automake script, but you need, for example, a C++ +compiler that handles templates properly. + + Mirko Boehm, September 1998. -- cgit v1.2.1
