Script to automatically create distribution for download

Description

To ease the process of creating releasable downloads, all of this process should be automated. This would give us the added benefit of making it possible to create daily snapshot builds.

Points to consider:

  • Build library file(s)
  • Generate .di files
  • Correct file permissions (at least for generated .di files)
  • Not all of trunk should be in these downloads, need a spec of what to include and what not to.

The last three points are all accounted for in the trunk/install/snapshot/snapshotbuilder.d script, and should be used to create a pure source snapshot.

We still need to generate a binary snapshot, which has the runtime lib, tango (and some additional stuffies (usergdi) on windows. In addition tango/* with generated .di files is needed for imports.

  • milestone changed from 0.96 Beta 2 to 0.97 RC 1.

Still some way to go with this regarding binary snapshots.

  • status changed from new to closed.

This is up and running. Will clean up and make the script available later.
