JK2MV uses the cmake build system. CMake generates project files for a lot of different IDE's like Visual Studio, Codeblocks, XCode etc.
Windows:
- Get cmake from http://www.cmake.org
- Either run one of the visual studio project generators in the "build" directory or configure yourself via the cmake gui.
Linux:
- Get cmake from your distributions repository's.
- Run one of the build scripts in the "build" directory. They create unix makefiles and then trigger the make command.
MacOSX:
- Get cmake from http://www.cmake.org
- create project files via the cmake gui.
- For the resulting app to actually work you need to build the "install" target.
