Ekiga Design Document and compilation issues

[sohil86]

Hi,
        I need to customize ekiga for IP camera support as a source of input. Is there any design document available for developers to understand the source code in order to make necessary changes ?

Moreover I tried to compile ekiga 3.2.6 ( on fedora 11 ) but got the following compilation errors. Can anyone please help me out with them.

../../lib/gui/xwindow.cpp: In member function ‘virtual int XWindow::Init(Display*, Window, _XGC*, int, int, int, int, int, int)’:

Unfortunately not.  There are some not-so-useful ideas at
http://git.gnome.org/cgit/ekiga/tree/HACKING.

According to
http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/HowTo_install_Ekiga_packages#F11, the
compilation should work well on F11.

I have not seen this error before.  PVideoFrameInfo is defined by ptlib.
 Maybe you have not installed ptlib's -dev package in F11 (you will need
opal's -dev too)?  Do you compile only ekiga, or ptlib and opal too?
