== Intro ==
===========
Read the README file in the parent directory, and the NEWS and TODO files if you
have not already done so. Make the preparations described in that README before
you try to use any of the utilities in this directory.
This directory contains utilities and associated resources for building this
package on Linux. All the utilities are Perl scripts (.pl files) which will
indicate their purpose if run with either of the options -h, --help. They are
also documented below.
Provided you placed the package directory under the directory you want to be
EPOCROOT (as per the build/README file), there is no need to set EPOCROOT to run
any of the scripts. They will set it. If you set EPOCROOT in the environment for
these scripts they will respect your setting.
There are two sorts of utilities:
* Utilities that you need only run once, to make necessary fixes to the upstream
Raptor configuration or to the PDK 3.0.h epoc32 tree, so that it is possible to
build any of the targets. The one-time utilties may make use of the patch-files
directory. Any file located at .\patch-files\windows\SOME_PATH\SOME.FILE will be
deployed to replace the file $EPOCROOT\SOME_PATH\SOME.FILE
* General utilities that you can use repeatedly for development work.
You need to run these utilities from this directory.
== One-time utilities ==
========================
* fix_raptor_config.pl:
-----------------------
Patches the Raptor config file %SBS_HOME%\lib\config\gcc.xml so that the
Standard C/C++ Library is configured as the one installed with the compiler,
not the PDK's STLPort implementation of the Standard Library.
* fix_epoc32.pl:
----------------
Patches the epoc32 tree so that it provides a valid pre-include header file to
enable compiling of the tools code with gcc 3.4.5
* prep_env.pl:
--------------
A wrapper for all the other fix_???.pl utilities.
== General utilities ==
=======================
* build_raptor.pl:
------------------
Builds Raptor. *You needn't build Raptor on Windows. You can use it from your
installed PDT 1.6*
* clean_raptor.pl:
------------------
Cleans Raptor (by invoking the CLEAN target of the Raptor build). *Not needed on
Windows if using Raptor from the PDT*
* deepclean_raptor.pl:
----------------------
Deletes all files created by building Raptor (which clean_raptor.pl does
not). *Not needed on Windows if using Raptor from the PDT*
* list_targets.pl:
------------------
Lists the targets in the package, with comments on any that don't need to be
built. The targets are listed as component paths relative to %EPOCROOT%\build.
* build_target.pl TARGET:
-------------------------
Build the target TARGET, where TARGET is one of the targets listed by
list_targets.pl.
* build_all.pl:
---------------
Build all the targets except Raptor, with Raptor.
* clean_target.pl TARGET:
-------------------------
Clean the target TARGET, where TARGET is one of the targets listed by
list_targets.pl
* clean_all.pl:
---------------
Build all the targets except Raptor, with Raptor.
* reallyclean_target.pl TARGET:
------------------------
Really-cleans target TARGET, where TARGET is one of the targets listed by
list_targets.pl.
* reallyclean_all.pl:
---------------
Really-clean all the targets except Raptor, with Raptor.
* clean_build_logs.pl:
----------------------
Deletes all Raptor build logs from %EPOCROOT%\epoc32\build.
* weed_backups.pl:
-----------------
Deletes all files in the package dir and epoc32 tree that end with '~'.
* get_upstream.pl CLONEDIR:
---------------------------
Clones or updates the upstream package at the baseline revision found in
..\baseline.txt, from http://developer.symbian.org/oss/MCL/sftools/dev/build.
The upstream package will be cloned into the existing directory CLONEDIR if
this does not appear to have been already done. Otherwise CLONEDIR\build will
be updated.
* diff_upstream.pl:
-------------------
Diffs this package with upstream package at the baseline revision found in
../baseline.txt.
Options:
-d, --diff-file FILE: The diffs will be written to FILE.
Default ./patch-files/diff/patch-N.patch, where N is the baseline revision.
-b, --baseline-dir DIR: The upstream baseline will be cloned into DIR if this
does not seem to have been done already. Otherwise DIR/build will be updated to
the baseline revision before diffing.
It is assumed that the command 'diff' will invoke the diff tool. diff is not
standard equioment on Windows but a port is available:
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/diffutils.htm.
* patch_upstream.pl
-------------------
Gets a copy of the upstream package at the baseline revision in ../baseline.txt
and applies a patch to it, by default making it the same as the revision of this
package that had that upstream baseline.
Options:
-p, --patch-file FILE: Apply the patch file FILE.
Default ./patch-files/diffs/patch-N.patch, where N is the baseline revision
-b, --baseline-dir DIR: The upstream baseline will be cloned into DIR if this
does not seem to have been done already. Otherwise DIR/build will be updated to
the baseline revision before patching.
It is assumed that the command 'patch' will invoke the patch tool. patch is not
standard equioment on Windows but a port is available:
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/patch.htm
== Getting started ==
=====================
To start your development cycle with this package:
* Run prev_env.pl
* Run build_all.pl. This takes some time.
* If anything has gone wrong, try fixing it.
* Otherwise, pick something to do from the TODO file.
