No, I certainly don't want to do that (however much sense it might have made to do it that way in the first place), because the transition would be too confusing. Besides, we're talking about what happens when you're building, not about what happens when the viewer is run by a user. ___ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
Re: [opensource-dev] Wild idea on building an install platform

I think that the way to approach the difficulties of setting up a proper development environment is: * Make the environment as simple as possible... unfortunately, ours already isn't simple. Suggestions for how to remove the dependency on one or more tools are welcome so long as the result works at least as well at present. * Document it very cleanly - can always use improvement, but ours is not bad (our new CEO was able to follow the setup instructions and build a viewer on Windows) * Build in checks as early as practical in the build process that produce an error message that tells you what part of the environment you're missing. That last could, in theory, be built as a separate tool as you suggest, but then we've got one more thing that can get out of sync. Instead, I think we should try to find and correct all the places where something obscure happens and add hints. In short, next time some new dev asks for help here on the list or in IRC because they could not understand a failure, let's try to: 1. Check to make sure the setup documentation included the thing they missed 2. Modify the build process so that when that step fails, a message comes out that says "check to make sure that you have xxx installed" ___ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges

Yes. There are some discussions going on within the Lab about how to proceed with viewer customizing, and when that has sorted itself out I'll get some information out on the results and how contributors can begin this process. ___ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges

So why not just > invert the meaning of STANDALONE? I guess (and that's really just a guess) today's "STANDALONE" refers to not relying on network connectivity at /build/ time. Whether the shipped application package is self-contained (i.e. has minimal reliance on libraries installed on the end user's system) depends mainly on what libraries get packaged with it (or linked statically, so that they're included anyway).

The last couple of Snowstorm test builds (e.g. http://automated-builds-secondlife-com.s3.amazonaws.com/hg/repo/snowstorm_viewer-development/rev/221902/index.html) no longer have the 'Changes since last good build' being shown - instead it is showing 'Unknown'. Is this a bug or will it be like this from now on?

Re: [opensource-dev] Changes on Snowstorm builds no longer showing up
You can download the changes.html file from the build results. I know why the problem exists, and I'll be working on redoing the build results pages. Meanwhile, please use the changes.html file to look up the changes included in the current build.
