How do you compile Stacked?

Question

I've checked out Stacked on Google Code using SVN and while the code is pretty easy for an intermediate like me it's not fully open source (at least I don't think).

I can't even build the damn project because I don't have the assemblies.

Does anyone know what to do and how to build the project? To my knowledge it uses "Active Record" and "Ra-Ajax" which I am presuming to be paid products? If so why is the project marked as open source?

Here is a screenshot: http://www.kalleload.net/uploads/cexnaasaaemh.jpg

Can anyone tell me step by step how to have this install on a MSSQL 2005 server OR MySQL server, and have the project build successfully?

Answer 1

Might want to do some research before you go slinging accusations.

Active Record is open source. So is Ra-Ajax. I'm not a .NET developer and I found this in 30 seconds with a quick Google.

Why don't you try requesting support in the proper place instead?

Answer 2

Ra-Ajax is open source and active record is free. These should be added to the project so it can compile.

Answer 3

You are missing dependencies. Looking through your screenshot, I recongize most of them. They should be in the libraries branch, or similar (have not examined Stacked yet), as compiled DLLs. If they do not link into the project, add references.

I am not familiar with Ra, but Castle is a depency injection framework (to be overly simplistic), NHibernate is an O/R Mapper. You can easily google either of these and compile them, if that is the issue. i am willing to bet all of them are available somewhere in the trunk.

Oh jeez, your right greg. I posted to early, they arein the trunk, but I can't seem to use ankhsvn to download them.
