wxPython/distrib/all/README.txt

   1 The collection of scripts in this directory are an attempt to fully
   2 automate the build of the wxPython source and binary packages on all
   3 build platforms.  It does this through creative use of shared folders
   4 on network drives, and ssh commands to the remote machines.  So this
   5 will likly only work in my somewhat unique environment.
   6
   7 The goal here is to be able to start a build on one machine and have
   8 it take care of all the steps, including moving the source tarball to
   9 the other build machines, initiating the build there, and collecting
  10 the results.  Depending on the type of build, (see below) the results
  11 may be copied to a public server for others to play with.
  12
  13 Types of builds:
  14
  15       dry-run
  16                 Nothing extra is done with the build, this is just for
  17                 my own testing.
  18
  19       daily
  20                 The version number is temporarily adjusted to include a
  21                 datestamp, and if the build is successful the results
  22                 are copied to a daily build folder on starship.
  23
  24       release-cantidate
  25                 The results are uploaded to the previews foler on
  26                 starship if the build is successful.
  27

  29 The master script in this folder is "make-all" which will setup and
  30 control the whole process.  The other scripts are what are run on each
  31 build machine, most of which will also call out to other scripts that
  32 already exist, etc.
