Working with the the wxWidgets release system
|
||
|
=====================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Currently, to generate the release tarballs, wxWidgets uses a script which
|
||
|
reads from a series of manifest files to determine which files should be
|
||
|
installed for a particular port. This document explains how to alter the list
|
||
|
of files that are distributed in the release tarballs.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The scripts are located in the <wxWidgets root>/distrib/scripts folder, with
|
||
|
create_archives.sh doing most of the work to create the actual tarballs.
|
||
|
pre-flight.sh runs the entire process of doing a checkout, building the releases,
|
||
|
and putting them into the <wxWidgets root>/deliver folder. The manifest files
|
||
|
are located in the <wxWidgets root>/distrib/scripts/manifests folder and
|
||
|
they have a .rsp extension for historical reasons.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Adding/removing a file from releases
|
||
|
------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
First, you must decide which tarballs you'd like to make the change to, in
|
||
|
order to determine which manifest file(s) the file should appear in.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Below is a list of each port and the primary manifest files that are used to
|
||
|
generate that release. The "ALL" in the list is not for wxALL, it means that
|
||
|
those manifests are where things that go in all ports should be.
|
||
|
|
||
|
tarball primary manifests
|
||
|
------- ----------------
|
||
|
ALL generic.rsp
|
||
|
wxBase base.rsp
|
||
|
wxMSW msw.rsp, wince.rsp
|
||
|
wxOS2 os2.rsp
|
||
|
wxGTK gtk.rsp
|
||
|
wxMAC mac.rsp cocoa.rsp
|
||
|
wxMotif motif.rsp
|
||
|
wxMGL mgl.rsp
|
||
|
wxX11 x11.rsp
|
||
|
|
||
|
Once you've decided which manifest file is most appropriate to add your file
|
||
|
in, then open that manifest and add a line with your file(s) at the bottom.
|
||
|
The file(s) should give the path relative to the wxWidgets root directory,
|
||
|
like so:
|
||
|
|
||
|
docs/tech/tn0033.txt
|
||
|
|
||
|
At the current time, wildcards in filenames are also accepted. Once the files are
|
||
|
added, they should show up in releases when distrib/scripts/pre-flight.sh is run.
