Build the launcher

Linux

cd ~/Projects
git clone git://github.com/commontk/AppLauncher.git
mkdir AppLauncher-Release
cd AppLauncher-Release
cmake -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=/home/jchris/Dashboards/Support/qt-static-release-4.7.0/bin/qmake -DBUILD_TESTING:BOOL=ON -DBUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release ../AppLauncher

Mac

cd ~/Projects
git clone git://github.com/commontk/AppLauncher.git
mkdir AppLauncher-Release
cd AppLauncher-Release
cmake -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=/home/jchris/Dashboards/Support/qt-static-release-4.7.0/bin/qmake -DBUILD_TESTING:BOOL=ON -DBUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES:STRING="i386"../AppLauncher

• Note that an extra cmake variable has been specified: -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES:STRING="i386"

Package the launcher

Windows

Don't build the package via Visual Studio, but from the command line

"c:\Program Files\CMake 2.8\bin\cpack.exe" -G TGZ

Versionning

Since there all development occurs on master, each time version is updated, two commits will be required.

Release-candidate

Step1

<RC> corresponds to the release candidate number. It is greater or equal to one.

• In CMakeLists.txt,
  • set CTKAppLauncher_VERSION_IS_RELEASE to 1
  • uncomment and set CTKAppLauncher_VERSION_RC to <RC>

• ... and if this is the first release candidate, update at least one these variables:
  • CTKAppLauncher_MAJOR_VERSION
  • CTKAppLauncher_MINOR_VERSION
  • CTKAppLauncher_BUILD_VERSION

• Commit message: CTKAppLauncher X.Y.Z-rc<RC>

Step2

• Generate packages based on SHA associated with step1.

Step3

• In CMakeLists.txt, set CTKAppLauncher_VERSION_IS_RELEASE to 0
• Commit message: Begin post-X.Y.Z-rc<RC> development

Release

Step1

• In CMakeLists.txt,
  • set CTKAppLauncher_VERSION_IS_RELEASE to 1
  • comment CTKAppLauncher_VERSION_RC and reset to 1

• Commit message: CTKAppLauncher X.Y.Z

Step2

• Generate packages based on SHA associated with step1.
• Tag the repository:

 git tag -s -m "CTKAppLauncher X.Y.Z" vX.Y.Z

Step3

• In CMakeLists.txt, set CTKAppLauncher_VERSION_IS_RELEASE to 0
• Commit message: Begin post-X.Y.Z development
