Development (and Manual) Build Instuctions

Please refer to the platform specific build notes located in the "doc" directory for errata and other information.

Download the latest moneychanger code (If you are planning to contribute please contact the devs in #opentransactions @ freenode.net irc chat)

git clone https://github.com/Open-Transactions/Moneychanger.git

IDE

Download QT tools (Qt Core Version 5.4.0+; 64bit compiling support Recomended for OT)

Open the moneychanger.pro file and press run.

First make sure you have installed the Open Transactions library.

Manual

cd Moneychanger
git submodule init && git submodule update
cd project
qmake && make -j4

(NB: qmake will be qmake-qt4 or qmake-qt5 on linux RH, Fedora)

Dependencies

(Only on Unix systems)

Install the following packages with your systems packagmanager (e.g. sudo apt-get install):

libidn11
libidn-devel
libcurl4
libcurl-devel
opentxs
protobuf
openssl > 1.0.0 (== 1.0.1h on OSX)
libzmq
libsodium

Note: qjsonrpc will be installed automatically as part of the 'make' command

Menu workaround for some window managers

Some window managers do not show the MoneyChanger icon in the systray. If Moneychanger starts and there's no tray menu icon, the following workaround will show the main menu in a separate window.

touch ~/.ot/knotworkpigeons

Then restart Moneychanger.

moneychanger's Issues

Moneychanger issues on Linux Mint 16 based on Ubuntu 13.10

I can compile without error, but when I cd into the project/moneychanger directory and run:
./moneychanger-qt (with the otserver running in another window)

I get a "transaction history" window that seems functional, but the main moneychanger window is defunct, doesn't respond to "close window" event, and shows whatever was on the screen behind the window when it opened, rather than the moneychanger gui.

this is on Linux Mint 13.10

Issue with _CINTTYPES

I've been trying to build Moneychanger from both the commandline and from QT creator and I keep running into issues with cinttypes.

I've been trying to build it with llvm clangs and also with gcc-4.8 but neither work, from both the commandline and from within qt creator with qt 5.2.1.

Below is the error I get from the command line:

compiling ../src/core/stable.hpp

Any idea why this is happening?

mcrpcservice.cpp

Hi There,

Thank you very much for updating the repo ..

Can i ask you about this ../../src/rpc/mcrpcservice.cpp ?

Debian Dependecies unmet

When trying to install the dependencies on debian I get the following:
rojaslee@debian:~$ sudo apt-get install libidn11 libidn-devel libcurl4 libcurl-devel
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package libcurl4 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
libcurl3:i386 libcurl3

E: Unable to locate package libidn-devel
E: Package 'libcurl4' has no installation candidate
E: Unable to locate package libcurl-devel

Do you have a better set of installation instructions, like the ones for the Open-Transactions-master?

Thanks

compile moneychanger.cpp:1308:45: error: ‘class opentxs::OT_ME’ has no member named ‘create_nym’

on Ubuntu 15.10 I could make install opentxs but then I get this error when running make on MoneyChanger:

Segmentation fault when creating nym

When creating a new nym from a fresh install state (~/.ot does not exist), Moneychanger crashes immediately after entering the master password:

Missing License file

I think it's important to add a licence as early as possible.
At least after Swiss law everything is closed source if there is no file which says it isn't. Also when it's on github.

I think trusting a closed source OT client is a bad idea. So that nobody can fork it and make it CS, GPLv3 is the best solution. You could use the MIT for ot_worker.h/.cpp, MTRecordList.h/.cpp and MTRecord.h/.cpp, since you use them in your Monetas iPhone App (right?) and MIT allows the usage in CS projects.
What do you think?

And BTW: It's also quite confusing that the Java test GUI and this Qt client both have the same name. Maybe we should rename one?

Cannot compile on OSX High Sierra - auto_ptr not in namespace std

This is also triggered in xmlrpc-c

I'm still looking into how to resolve this.

ERROR: opentxs development package not found

I just installed opentxs (did sudo make install) and it succeeded. Yet I get this error while compiling MoneyChanger:

Moneychanger on OSX

I've tried installing Moneychanger with Qt creator on OSX.
When trying to build, it gives me the following error:

opentxs development package not found

In this forum: http://opentransactions.org/forum/index.php?topic=3741.0 they recommend to add /usr/local/bin to the "Build Environment" section of Qt section, but I'm not sure exactly what that means.

Thanks and sorry for the amateur question!
