I'm pleased to announce that Oliver Sims has accepted an invitation to become a committer to the ooRexx project. Oliver has recently been very busy submitting updates to the ooDialog documentation sample programs that go along with the new documentation. We're excited to be able to add Oliver to our committer team. Please join me in congratulating Oliver on this achievement. Rick |

I understand that from now on I can and should commit code and text directly to a repository. I've worked with various check-in repositories in the past, and they've all been quite different at the detail level. So I guess I need some guidance on this particular repository and the processes and tools needed. Here are the immediate questions that occur to me: (1) Do I continue to upload patches? If yes, then how do I handle the patches after upload so that files are properly updated, and what tools do I need? (2) Since the code/chapters are "built" at various times, and placed into "versioned repositories" (see below) that all may access, I assume I need to submit code/text to two different places, each being the place that the builds get their input from. If this is correct, where are these places (i.e. what URLs)? (3) Since builds are done according to some timetable, where do I find out what the timetable is? (4) Do I do the builds for my stuff, and if so, what tools do I need? (5) I believe that compiled binaries such as resource-only DLLs are not built for each version, but just once prior to public release. Is that correct? By "versioned repositories" I mean the ones I know about, that is: - Document source (latest revision): <https://oorexx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/oorexx/docs/trunk/oodguide/> https://oorexx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/oorexx/docs/trunk/oodguide/ - Document PDFs: (all revisions) http://build.oorexx.org/builds/docs/ - Exercises (latest revision): <https://oorexx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/oorexx/main/trunk/samples/window s/oodialog/userGuide/exercises/> https://oorexx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/oorexx/main/trunk/samples/windows /oodialog/userGuide/exercises/ Many thanks, Oliver |

So I guess I need > some guidance on this particular repository and the processes and tools > needed. Here are the immediate questions that occur to me: Hi Oliver, You already have the essentials. The repository is what you have been using, svn. Earlier I had advised you to just check out a subset of the entire repository. Which I still advise, but if I were you, I would check out a slightly larger subset. It is easy to see how the entire repository is laid out by using the browse feature on SourceForge. Just go to: http://oorexx.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/oorexx/ which is the top level of the entire repository for the ooRexx project. The you can just drill down to see how things are laid out. To check out and work with the repository, just use TortoiseSVN as you have been. For the doc work, I originally suggested checking out: https://oorexx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/oorexx/docs/trunk/oodguide but I would now suggest checking out all the docs, so just move up 1 directory and check this out instead: https://oorexx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/oorexx/docs/trunk For the work you are doing on the user guide examples, I originally suggested just checking out: https://oorexx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/oorexx/main/trunk/samples/windows/oodialog I would now suggest checking out all of the ooRexx package / distribution: https://oorexx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/oorexx/main/trunk oorexx/main/trunk is the current development tree. > (1) Do I continue to upload patches? If yes, then how do I handle the > patches after upload so that files are properly updated, and what tools do I > need? No, you don't need to upload pages. Use TortoiseSVN. Right-click on the userGuide directory where you have a file change and you will see a menu item for "commit" Commit will push all the changes in your working copy into the repository. You can use the TortoiseSVN menu to do other things, like diff. Diff will show you what changes you are about to make. When you commit some changes you will be required to write a log entry. > (2) Since the code/chapters are "built" at various times, and placed into > "versioned repositories" (see below) that all may access, I assume I need to > submit code/text to two different places, each being the place that the > builds get their input from. If this is correct, where are these places > (i.e. what URLs)? No that's not correct. There is only 1 repository. Just commit like I explained above. The build machine is separate and something you do not need to worry about. David manages it and it is set up to do a build each night, if there have been any commits that day. If the code is not changed, the build doesn't happen. > (3) Since builds are done according to some timetable, where do I find out > what the timetable is? The time table is as explained above, once a night if there are changes. > (4) Do I do the builds for my stuff, and if so, what tools do I need? To build ooRexx, you need a C++ compiler. To package a distribution you need other tools. I would suggest you first check oorexx/main/trunk and then look at the files: windows-build.txt unix-like-build.txt Those should give you enough information to ask intelligent questions. To build the docs, you will need access to a Linux system. If you have that, you will need to install some tools related to DocBook and jade. You can ask for more information if needed. > (5) I believe that compiled binaries such as resource-only DLLs are not > built for each version, but just once prior to public release. Is that > correct? Sort of. On Windows, the resource-only DLLs are built each time you build ooRexx. You can build ooRexx using Microsoft's free version of Visual Studio. Use a Google search of "Visual Studio Express" to get more information. If you set up things to package the Windows distribution, then the resource-only DLLs get included in the package, the installer. I would also advise that you subscribe to the other lists available. In particular: oorexx-svn. With that list, you can see the log each time a developer makes a commit. This is useful to keep up with what other developers are doing. Some of the other lists keep you up to date with bugs are opened, what patches are opened, etc.. -- Mark Miesfeld |

While doing the housework in my notes, I retrieved this post from Rick : http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=33bd05330711150446l30ee70b2m43978a99e5426068%40mail.gmail.com&forum_name=oorexx-devel Not needed for the current work on oodialog documentation, but could be useful in the future :-) Jean-Louis |
