Build tool

Revision as of 12:38, 22 November 2006 by Sanakan (Talk | contribs) (first draft of modular build-tool scripts)


Overview

The whole build process of EiffelStudio is rather tedious at the moment. This project aims to simplify this by various means:

  • Setup checker
  • (modular) Build scripts
  • Delivery scripts

This will lead to a better overall build infrastructure, automated (nightly) builds, and things alike. We work on our own branch of the sourcecode, but will sync it from time to time with SVN HEAD.

Goals

We aim to have a compact build process by using only Eiffel related tools (mainly geant scripts) and thus minimizing the needed (alien) tools to get an EiffelStudio compilation going.

Steps

  • first draft of geant scripts to build c-libraries
  • first draft of setup-checker tool
