[ome-devel] Getting started with C++ API for OMERO.server clients

[Nick Perry]

Hey Josh,

Sorry to bug you again.

I'm trying to put together in my head everything I've done so far.

With the command:
svn co http://cvs.openmicroscopy.org.uk/svn/omero/trunk omero

I'm checking out a new omero distribution, right? So if I had the omero
server up and running already on my computer (the standard download), I've
messed things up, right? I was just looking in my previous omero
distribution folder and this new checked out one, and they share files but
the latter has the build.py. So if I'm guessing correctly, I need to run the
omero server out of this new, special distribution, right? So the omero
server with API is DIFFERENT than the normal omero server, and in order to
write C++ api for connecting 3rd party clients to omero i need to be running
the omero server using the distribution I check out with the following
command...?

Thanks for the help,
Nick
