This directory and the tools here are used to generate Windows
|
|
|
|
|
project files for the main XQilla library and related projects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both VC6 and Visual Studio 7.1 files are generated. The
|
2020-02-17 21:12:51 +00:00
|
|
|
latter can be opened using Visual Studio 2005 (8) and
|
|
|
|
|
later releases as well.
|

|
The process:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2020-02-17 21:12:51 +00:00
|
|
|
1. Source (including header) files are added to 2 file:
|
|
|
|
|
(1)srcfiles.in and (2)xqilla.template.xml See those files for format.
|
2020-02-17 21:05:20 +00:00
|
|
|
Be sure to update that file when files are added or removed
|
2020-02-17 21:12:51 +00:00
|
|
|
from the project. At some point, it will probably be possible
|
|
|
|
|
to generate srcfiles.in from xqilla.template.xml, but for now,
|
|
|
|
|
both need to be updated manually.
|
2020-02-17 21:05:20 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Run the script, s_win32, which calls the 2 scripts, s_win32_dsp
|
2020-02-17 21:12:51 +00:00
|
|
|
and s_projects to generate project files. These files
|
|
|
|
|
land in ../Win32Projects/{VC6,VC7.1}. s_projects requires that
|
|
|
|
|
the xqilla command line utility be in your PATH, because it
|
|
|
|
|
uses XQuery and the input XML document (xqilla.template.xml)
|
|
|
|
|
to generate the project files.
|
2020-02-17 21:05:20 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The scripts must be run on a Unix-style machine, most likely,
|
2020-02-17 21:12:51 +00:00
|
|
|
as they use bash and commands that are typically available
|
2020-02-17 21:05:20 +00:00
|
|
|
on Unix. They *may* run under cygwin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2020-02-17 21:12:51 +00:00
|
|
|
DO NOT EVER manually edit the output project files (*.dsp,
|
2020-02-17 21:05:20 +00:00
|
|
|
*.vcproj). If changes are required, edit the templates
|
|
|
|
|
and scripts and generate the changed projects.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
Maintaining 2 mechanisms and 2 file lists is a bit of a hassle,
|
|
|
|
|
but at some point, support for VC6 will likely be dropped,
|
|
|
|
|
and/or the Todo items below may be done.

Details:
|
|
|

|
|
|
The VC6 scripts use template project files (ending in ".src")
|
2020-02-17 21:05:20 +00:00
|
|
|
and do a lot of field substitution from configuration found
|
|
|
|
|
in these files:
|
|
|
|
|
lib_paths.sed
|
|
|
|
|
s_win32_*
|
|
|
|
|
|
2020-02-17 21:12:51 +00:00
|
|
|
The s_projects script uses lib_paths.sed to substitute
|
|
|
|
|
variables in xqilla.template.xml, substitutes the project
|
|
|
|
|
name in the XQuery script, genproject.template, then calls the
|
|
|
|
|
xqilla command passing the resulting script, which uses the
|
|
|
|
|
XML document input to generate a specific project file.

|
Todo:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2020-02-17 21:12:51 +00:00
|
|
|
1. Generate srcfiles.in from xqilla.template.xml to remove multiple
|
|
|
|
|
manual steps.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Maybe generate Makefile.am from xqilla.template.xml as well (or
|
|
|
|
|
vice versa).
