| Paths |
| ----- |
| |
| 1. On the root of a drive, create a folder called SubversionBuildTools. All subsequent folders should be created inside this folder |
| |
| 2. Create a folder called SubversionTrunk and checkout the latest Subversion source to this folder. |
| |
| 3. Create a folder called svnbook and in this folder, checkout the tagged version of the source relating to this Subversion release - or alternatively, checkout the trunk if there is no tag for this release. |
| |
| 4. Create a folder called work. Download the previous version and current win32 binaries and extract to this folder. |
| 4a) Rename the current version folder to 'svn-win32-ap22x'. |
| 4b) Inside the folder structure for both versions, move the main structure down to the first folder level |
| (the binaries normally will extract two levels deep, we want the second level moved back to the first) |
| When setup correctly, the path to the bin folder will be \SubversionBuildEnvironment\work\svn-win32-ap22x\bin |
| |
| 5. Create a folder called InPath and copy selected binaries from the downloaded documentation build tools so that the |
| folder contains the following binaries: |
| |
| iconv.dll |
| iconv.exe |
| libexslt.dll |
| libxml2.dll |
| libxslt.dll |
| xmlcatalog.exe |
| xmllint.exe |
| xsltproc.exe |
| zlib1.dll |
| |
| 6. Add the InPath folder location to the Path environment variable. |
| |
| 7. Extract the DocBook XSL Stylesheets to svnbook/tools/xsl. |
| |
| 8. gnupg should usually be placed in c:\gnupg. Ensure it is added to the Path environment variable. |
| |
| |
| |
| Prepare for Build |
| ----------------- |
| |
| 1. Load the BuildSubversion solution into SharpDevelop. |
| |
| 2. Perform a diff between the new and old Subversion binaries including subfolders. Note any added or removed files. |
| |
| 3. For any added or removed files, edit and save the wxs files in SharpDevelop (WiX knowledge required). |
| |
| |
| |
| Build the Subversion Release |
| ---------------------------- |
| |
| 1. In SharpDevelop, check that the build configuration is set to 'Release'. |
| |
| 2. Build the solution. Until this is resolved, build AGAIN. Files are not correctly referenced until the second time. |
| |
| 3. Enter |
| |
| If the build fails from any pre-build events, try running prepare-distro.bat from the Tools folder on a command prompt |
| to ascertain whether the perl scripts are producing errors. |
