Hereby I introduce a ''Development Status'' page, where the
current phase of the release cycle can be marked and similar
status information is published. This page also includes
the Changelog (from the file NEWS). Since updates must
be checked into Git and then pushed to our website,
such status marks are documented in the history.
Some notes regarding the phases of the Release cycle
were also added to the Release checklist.
+ some additional links resources and documentation tweaks
__Explanation__: in line with the Git-flow scheme, the version number
embedded in-tree will now indicate the ''expected next release version,''
yet marked with a suffix `~dev` (which sorts ''before'' this version number)
Starting with ''preview release'' `v0.pre.04`, branch and version tags
will be handled in accordance to the **Git-flow** naming scheme.
Notably this implies that from now on the version in-tree will indicate
the ''next expected release,'' adorned by a suffix to mark the preview.
To accommodate this transition to Git-flow
- the new branch `integration` will be introduced
- the version number will once (and the last time for this release)
be adjusted ''before'' forking the release branch
- branch `master` will transition to reflect the latest released state
- several existing branches will be discontinued, notably
`gui`, `steam`, `vault`, `release`, `play`
...in an attempt to clarify why numerous cross links are not generated.
In the end, this attempt was not very successful, yet I could find some breadcrumbs...
- file comments generally seem to have a problem with auto link generation;
only fully qualified names seem to work reliably
- cross links to entities within a namespace do not work,
if the corresponding namespace is not documented in Doxygen
- documentation for entities within anonymous namespaces
must be explicitly enabled. Of course this makes only sense
for detailed documentation (but we do generate detailed
documentation here, including implementation notes)
- and the notorious problem: each file needs a valid @file comment
- the hierarchy of Markdown headings must be consistent within each
documentation section. This entails also to individual documented
entities. Basically, there must be a level-one heading (prefix "#"),
otherwise all headings will just disappear...
- sometimes the doc/devel/doxygen-warnings.txt gives further clues
...this will be the third preview release
Lumiera is still in pre-alpha stage, and thus
there are no proper releases, just preview snapshots.
Again this version will be built and packaged
on several supported Linux platforms
...this will be the second preview release
Lumiera is still in pre-alpha stage, and thus there
are no proper releases, just preview snapshots
from time to time.
But we're providing Debian packages allready
This generates a detailed documentation in html_browse/
* all things get extracted (undocumented, TODO, BUG etc...)
* produces a warnings_browse.txt to show undocumented things
* no graphs to keep it reasonable small
