1 | Distribution scripts and lists | |
2 | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | |
3 | ||
4 | This directory (distrib\msw) contains some 4DOS batch files | |
5 | (.bat) and 'response' files (.rsp) to simplify the job of | |
6 | producing distributions. The .rsp files specify which files are | |
7 | associated with a particular module, e.g. wx200vc.rsp refers to | |
8 | the VC++ project files, wx200gen.rsp represents the generic files, | |
9 | wx200msw.rsp specifies the Windows specific files, etc. | |
10 | ||
11 | When making a distribution on Windows, I call zipdist.bat to prepare | |
12 | zip files with everything needed for Windows, | |
13 | GTK and Motif. zipdist then unzips some of them into | |
14 | deliver\wx, removes and adds a few files to perfect the | |
15 | distribution. | |
16 | ||
17 | zipdist then calls 'makewise.bat' to generate a new wxwin2.wse | |
18 | script, for WISE Installer. It takes wisetop.txt, wisebott.txt | |
19 | and adds the section for file installation. (If you've modified | |
20 | wxwin2.wse using WISE Installer, simply compile and run splitwise.exe | |
21 | to put back up-to-date wisetop.txt, wisebott.txt files before | |
22 | running zipdist.) | |
23 | ||
24 | Finally, zipdist runs WISE Installer using a command line | |
25 | argument to produce the setup.* files automatically. | |
26 | ||
27 | Note that although zipdist.bat produces archives for 3 platforms, | |
28 | I only use a subset of these to produce the Windows-specific | |
29 | setup.exe. I then have the option of distributing the zip files | |
30 | as well. | |
31 | ||
32 | You may need to install 4DOS to run these scripts. If anyone | |
33 | wishes to remove 4DOS dependency, that's fine with me. | |
