How to contribute to Scilab
First Step : Legal
Second step : Technical
Guidelines
- You need to work from the Scilab Trunk.
- Update from the trunk often since the trunk is moving fast.
Not a Scilab Developer ?
If you are not a Scilab Developer, you have to send us a patch that we will apply against the trunk.
The command is :
# svn diff > myChanges_26-11-2007.diff
If it is a feature listed on the page Ideas of development for Scilab, contact the person in charge of the module. Otherwise, send an email to sylvestre.ledru@inria.fr with a brief explanation of your work.
Scilab Developer : Committing
If your code does not break Scilab (for example a new module which can be disabled), you can commit as you like.
If there is a risk that it will break Scilab for a while, please restrain to commit as long as it is not working.
Development
We have a few rules in the code. See the dedicated URLs :
