I don't have very much time available, so I hope you don't expect it to be
ready in the very near future....

Thanks for the positive reactions!
As I said in my initial mail, I have some things already setup and
working. For this I kept things as much as possible the way they are.
Right now I have a routine that checks for existance of <project>.rc and
if it finds one, it updates the versionInfo (auto incrementing the build
number). Next it calls windres via a tprocess. I hooked the routine in
immedialtely after DoSaveForBuild (main.pp).
Where I'm stuck right now is two things:
- I need the check the main program code, toe see if the "{$R
<project>.rex}"
Do you mean {$R *.res} ?
Yes, I mean *.res. Sorry for my typos. Maybe I should read back what I typed
before hitting the send button??? :-)
sentence is already there and if not add it. I can
read/write to the .lpr file directly offcourse, but I'm sure there is a
better way, but how???
I will add a function to the codetools. Where should it be placed in the
source?
It should be placed just before the 'begin'.
-- snip --
uses
Interfaces, // this includes the LCL widgetset
Forms
{ add your units here }, Unit1;
{$R project1.res}
begin
-- end snip --
- More or less the same goes for the .lpi file. I want to have a few
parameters in that one. At the moment I'm thinking of:
- a parameter if whether we should include versionInfo or not
- a parameter for whether auto-incementing the build number or
not.
It seems, we need:
TAutoIncProjectVersion = (
aipvNo, // do not auto increment
aipvBeforeBuild, // before building and last build was successful
aipvAfterBuild // after successful build
);
AutoIncrementingVersion: TAutoIncProjectVersion
How do I access the .lpi file in a smart way???
Add new property to ideintf/projectintf.pas TLazProject
Add to ide/project.pp ReadProject and WriteProject.
Ok, thanks!
Mattias
Thanks for your help!
