Well, lets have a short look at that task
The command svnversion gives the revision number of the last
commit. But: Of which file / directory? You can only change
the build machine to call svnversion in the top level amforth
directory (where the appl/template and the core/ directories
are).
mt@ayla:~/amforth/trunk$ svnversion -c
494:1304
mt@ayla:~/amforth/trunk$ svnversion
1268:1304
mt@ayla:~/amforth/trunk$
This gives you a number (or two, seems to depend
on the version of svnversion itself), which you
need to incorporate into your application somehow. e.g.
a word like applturnkey that gets modified during the
hex file generation:
; ( -- n ) utilities
; R( -- )
VE_SVN_REV:
.dw $ff0b
.db "svn-version",0
.dw VE_HEAD
.set VE_HEAD = VE_SVN_REV
XT_SVN_REV:
.dw DO_COLON
PFA_SVN_REV:
.dw XT_DOLITERAL
.dw $GLOBALID$ ; <- this is a placeholder for search/modify
.dw XT_EXIT
Calling this word gives the rev-number on the stack.
I very much prefer getting a patchset for that change, I do not
want to deal with all this myself ;) But please a patchset, that
can deal with (at least some) errors and other oddities as well,
failures at this point should not break the build process. IMHO.
