Comparing against recent ActiveTcl release > > Is that part necessary when creating a release newer than is > present in the latest ActiveTcl? > Hi Larry, The few times that I prepared a Bwidget release was in response to an ActiveTcl release. They grabbed CVS Head, which had a lot of bug fixes and improvements, and called it 1.6 or 1.7. My part of the release engineering was really playing catch-up with ActiveTcl. I wasn't so proactive as to actually do the release in time for the ActiveState folks to pick up a fresh new version. If we're ahead of the 8-ball with Bwidget 1.8, then I would presume that the ActiveState folks would grab that release instead of CVS HEAD. I can't comment on ActiveState's release schedule. And I haven't been looking at Bwidget developer activity. So I don't have an opinion on whether the timing would make any difference. But I would like to have Bwidget 1.8 released on Sourceforge match ActiveTcl's Bwidget 1.8. Bob - -- Bob Techentin tec...@ma...

As that tcllib RC1 is to be perpared Real Soon Now, may I go ahead do the following: - update pkgIndex.tcl version number - update ChangeLog - tag the current BWidget trunk as "bwidget-1-8-0" ? -- Jason Tang / ta...@jt... / http://www.jtang.org/~tang |

Make sure there aren't any low-hanging fruit? Jeff |

Make sure there aren't any low-hanging fruit? I have cleared out a number of patches and fixed the easy bugs. One problem remains: what to do about BWidget's broken build system. Specifically, its aclocal.m4 tries to include (the non-existant) config/tcl.m4. How do I make BWidget more TEA-aware? Should its aclocal.m4 be a copy of tcllib's aclocal.m4? -- Jason Tang / ta...@jt... / http://www.jtang.org/~tang |

Best practice for pure-Tcl packages is to distribute them in a form that can just be unpacked and used in-place, e.g., a tarball that contains: bwidget-X.Y/pkgIndex.tcl bwidget-X.Y/init.tcl ... etc. --Joe English jen...@fl... |

I removed them from my version a long time ago. I say get rid of them and just let it be a directory you unzip into place. Until there's an "official" delivery method for Tcl-only extensions, that's as good as any. As of 8.5, everything will most likely just be shipped as Tcl Modules. Damon J.

I say get rid of > them and just let it be a directory you unzip into place. Until Done and committed. BWidget is now tagged as "bwidget-1_8_0". (Please ignore my first attempt at tagging, where I erred and tagged the wrong files.) Please do a checkout of that release to make sure that I did not mess anything else up. Thanks. -- Jason Tang / ta...@jt... / http://www.jtang.org/~tang |

Was there ever a standard defined for Tcl-only extensions? Do we need the whole configure && make && make install system? We certainly don't need the whole configure script that's part of the TEA.
