XALAN-C Google Summer of Code - 2012 Here are some areas where the Google Summer of Code (GSOC-2012) can have a good impact on preparing for product releases.
GSOC-2012 can help with infrastructure/automation projects by creating release builds for XALAN-C evaluation and distribution. I am willing to participate as a mentor this summer. Does the XALAN PMC wish me to work on this? Deadline for mentoring organization application Friday March 9, 2012 at 23:00 UTC Sincerely, Steven J. Hathaway <shatha...@apache.org> AUTOMATE THE UNIX BUILDS OF XALAN-C LIBRARY SOURCES =================================================== Provide binary library packages for AIX, HPUX, SOLARIS, LINUX 1> Extract the code base from the SVN repository. 2> Compile on UNIX systems the binary packages for the XALAN-C library. 3> Package the development and release builds as tar files and compressed tar files. 4> Post the build scripts to JIRA and possibly a public accessable web site. 5> Post the assembled packages on a public accessable web site. AUTOMATE THE BUILDS OF XALAN-C DOCUMENTATION SOURCES ==================================================== Note: Doxygen and GraphViz programs are now available for Windows platforms. They have only been used by the XALAN-C team on Linux and UNIX platforms. The XALAN-C User Guild can be built using the Xalan command-line utility and simple script files. The XALAN-C Interactive API Reference pages are constructed with the Doxygen and GraphViz programs on Linux and UNIX platforms. 1> Extract the code base from the SVN repository. 2> Create scripts to build the XALAN-C User Guide. 3> Create scripts to build the XALAN-C API Reference. 4> Create scripts to assemble a documentation package into tar and zip files. 5> Post the scripts to JIRA. 6> Post the documentation packages on a public accessable web site. The current scripts in the XalanDocs branch build the User Guide on a Windows platform and the API Reference on a UNIX/Linux platform. UPGRADE XERCES-C TO USE WINDOWS VISUAL STUDIO .NET 2011 (Beta) ============================================================== 1> Extract the XERCES-C code base from the SVN repository. 2> Provide the Microsoft VS 2011 solution and project files in a directory that can be directly included in the XERCES-C code base. 3> Build the core library and sample programs. Evaluate the sample programs for issues. 4> Cleanup the unwanted side-effects found in the solution and project files as the result of Visual Studio Upgrade. 5> Prepare zip files of the Microsoft VS 2011 directory elements needed to patch the code base repository. 6> Post these patches to JIRA UPGRADE XALAN-C TO USE WINDOWS VISUAL STUDIO .NET 2011 (Beta) ============================================================= 1> Extract the XALAN-C code base from the SVN repository. 2> Provide the Microsoft VS 2011 solution and project files in a directory that can be directly included in the XALAN-C code base. 3> Build the core library and sample programs.
