SoC 2007 Project Mac OS X Framework

This project is part of Google Summer of Code 2007. Student: Pierre d'Herbemont Mentor: Felix Paul Kühne

Introduction

I (Pierre d'Herbemont) will use this wiki page to detail the work I'll do for the GSoC 2007. My mentor for this project is Felix Kühne.

Project Objectives

More information in my original Proposal.

Status Summary

The simple test app that links to VLC.framework is able to play a given video just fine. Lots of work still needed in the playlist management area and in event handling though.

Timeline

Task Description	Due Date	Accomplished
My proposition has been accepted	N/A	Yes 12/04/2007
Work on setting up a git server to publish my work. See Git (thanks to Dionoea). More could be done to set up something better but that's enough for me for now ;)	15/04/2007	Yes 13/04/2007
Implement the stub framework and the sample code that links to it. See the commit on commit 1, commit 2.	15/04/2007	Yes 13/04/2007
First draft of the headers, plus partial implementation. Events, playlist, vout basic usage demo in the sample code.	29/04/2007	No
Auto evalutation, keeping in mind my original Proposal: Would current VLC be able to work with the object defined? Is there any simplification possible? What changes to libvlc are needed?.	29/04/2007	-

Code repository

All the code I did for the GSoC is publicly stored on VideoLan's Git Repository for GSoC on the pdherbemont_branch branch. To check it out:

$ git clone git://git.videolan.org/vlc-soc.git
$ cd vlc-soc

Now get my branch:

$ git branch pdherbemont_branch

And to keep sync-ed a simple:

$ git pull

Should be enough.

Voilà!
