!Introduction
This set of instructions will walk you through setting up a KDevelop C++ project from scratch.

When you have finished this tutorial you will be able to compile a working Ogre Application and you will be ready to start the ((Basic Tutorials)).

!Prerequisites
Make sure that you've created a CMake project as outlined in ((Building Your Projects With CMake))

!Creating an Ogre project in KDevelop
Choose {MONO()}Project - Open/Import Project{MONO} from the menu.
!!Select Directory/Project File
{img fileId="1961" width="400" thumb="y" alt="" rel="box[g]"}

!!Project Information
{img fileId="1962" width="400" thumb="y" alt="" rel="box[g]"}

!!Build Directory
{img fileId="1963" width="400" thumb="y" alt="" rel="box[g]"}

!!Build and Install
From within KDevelop you can now build and build install, using the project build menu:
{img fileId="1965" width="400" thumb="y" alt="" rel="box[g]"}

!!Launch Configuration
Choose {MONO()}Run - Configure Launches{MONO} from the menu.
Click the plus to add a launch configuration to the project:
{img fileId="1964" width="400" thumb="y" alt="" rel="box[g]"}

!!Success
Run/Debug your project:
{img fileId="1966" width="400" thumb="y" alt="" rel="box[g]"}

!Conclusion
KDevelop is a full featured developing environment with excellent support for CMake based projects.
It only touches the source directory very briefly: one KDevelop project file and a .kdev4 directory.
You can live with that.
