Coding
Although WDB is originally developed and hosted by met.no (http://www.met.no), it's a true open-source project under GPL2 license. If you would like to contribute, contact us using the mail address listed in the sidebar.
We are currently working on setting up a public mailing list that will be utilized for future development discussions.
There are many ways to join the project, either by writing code, or by testing and/or helping to manage the WDB Issue List.
- Look at the issue list and create a patch for the problem. To submit code, simply send your patch to the WDB Dev Group
- Look at the issue list and create a test for the issue that recreates the reported problem. Having a test makes it much easier to find the source of the problem, and verify that it has been fixed
- Set up an automated build and test suite for WDB on your hardware platform
Before you contribute code, you might want to read:
- Browse the source code repository
- Read the source code documentation (doxygen)
- Read the Design and Test Documentation
- Read the Coding Style Guide used in WDB.
