CuteCanonCapture

Compiling from source

1. Check out the code using Bazaar (my personal favorite) by calling

   bzr branch http://subversion.assembla.com/svn/CuteCanonCapture/trunk CuteCanonCapture
   

   or using Subversion

   svn co http://subversion.assembla.com/svn/CuteCanonCapture/trunk CuteCanonCapture
   

2. Get the Canon PowerShot RemoteCapture SDK (latest PSReCSDK and CDSDK). You need to register yourself at the Canon Digital Imaging Developer Programme before you can download the SDK.
3. Get the Qt SDK including the Qt Creator and install it.  
4. Adapt the file ''CuteCanonCapture.pro'' to point to the correct PSReCSDK and CDSDK paths.  
5. Do either of the following steps  
   •   Run the following commands from the command line:  

     qmake CuteCanonCapture.pro
     make release  

   •    or open ''CuteCanonCapture.pro'' with the Qt Creator and compile it.  
6. Execute the compiled file ''release\CuteCanonCapture.exe''. The files ''mingwm10.dll'', ''PRLIB.dll'', ''PRSDK.dll'', ''QtCore4.dll'' and ''QtGui4.dll'' need to be in the same directory as the executable.
