                  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.
