/** \file Mainpage.dox

*/
/**
\mainpage The KDevelop Platform %API %Documentation
KDevelop Platform is set of libraries and tools that are used to build IDEs (Integrated Development Environments),
applications similar to IDEs (web development enviroment, text editors for programmers and designers, etc.)
and/or IDE plugins for all possible purposes.
Platform provides:
- the plugin architecture (interfaces);
- the common support libraries;
- the generic shell with plugin profiles support.
.
\section intro Introduction
This document is targeted at all those that want to build their own IDE or improve KDevelop's source code.
If you are instead looking for a user manual, just go to the help menu of your KDevelop and select KDevelop handbook.
This documentation contains the KDevelop Platform online class reference for the current
development version of KDevelop. Additionally, you
can subscribe or read the <a href="http://www.kdevelop.org/index.html?filename=mailinglist.html">mailing list</a> for any additions and/or
modifications to the Platform %API.
An on-line, updated every 24H, html version of this documentation can be found at: http://www.kdevelop.org/HEAD/doc/platform/html/index.html
You can also download a local browseable copy form http://www.kdevelop.org/HEAD/doc/platform/kdevplatformdoc.tar.bz2 . It gets updated every single day too.
More information about the KDevelop Platform architecture in form of tutorials, Wikis, HOWTOs,
and FAQs can be found at
the <a href="http://www.kdevelop.org">KDevelop website</a>.
Quick overviews of the architecture can also be found in the issues of <a href="http://www.kdevelop.org/doc/tehcnotes">
KDevelop Technotes</a>.

\section howTobuildAPIlocalcopy How to build a local copy of this documentation
This documentation is large and changes with every cvs commit, therefore is not available for download.
To build your local copy of this documentation you need to fetch KDevelop sources and
if you have doxygen >= 1.3.4 and (optionally) PHP >= 4.10 plus a local running webserver then
- make apidox
- make install-apidox (as root)
.
The advantage of the webserver is that you'll get a search engine in your documentation if you read your
documentation using your local webserver.
