build.git - Intelligent software compilation program.

Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author
2006-09-10	Almost done tweaking the variable system, it needed support for local, or	Mike Buland
	"extra" variables.
2006-09-08	Added targets to the performs.	Mike Buland

2006-09-08	Getting steaddily closer.	Mike Buland

2006-09-07	About to implement Rule, the heart of the porform generation system. Once	Mike Buland
	that's done, we can actually run the performs, and, most likely build things.
2006-09-07	Really getting there, the rest of the work should be in the build class and	Mike Buland
	related build-time components!
2006-08-29	Updated a load, now there's a seperate module for performing string processing	Mike Buland
	pre parser, and whatever.
2006-08-28	Finished getting everything to build with the new changes. Parser is now the	Mike Buland
	generic base class for anything that could create a build object.
2006-08-28	Renamed Builder to BuildParser, soon I'll add the Parser base class and make	Mike Buland
	the whole thing official.
2006-08-23	Really close...functions are doing their stuff, we have inputs, almost have ↵	Mike Buland
	rules.
2006-08-23	Loads more stuff...it's nearly working now.	Mike Buland

2006-08-22	Started on the crazy process of building the stage one compiled data. It's	Mike Buland
	going pretty quickly, we'll see how the targets go, they'll be the only tricky part.
2006-08-22	Added targets, and the global set command, things are really coming along now.	Mike Buland

2006-08-22	Fixed the lexer to complain about invalid escape sequences in strings.	Mike Buland

2006-08-22	The basic outline for all of the initial functions and rules has been set. The	Mike Buland
	parser and scanner are using the new system so they actually match functions and whatnot and pass that data to the parser, it's very cool.
2006-08-21	Alright, the grammer is almost there, just debugging, in what I call extreme-	Mike Buland
	debugging mode. If you wanted something intelligable, don't use this one.
2006-08-21	Getting there, it compiles, now for the fun sophisticated pieces where the	Mike Buland
	builder itself tells the lexer which tokens are functions, and which are target types.
2006-08-18	Gutted, deleted almost all the source, too many changes to keep it around, we'll	Mike Buland
	see what happens next.
2006-08-07	A bug in the lexer was causing the line count to be off by 3 for every line	Mike Buland
	continuation token.
2006-08-07	Added support for setting and adding the output of commands to variables.	Mike Buland

2006-08-07	Updated the lexer to not include + or = in string literals outside of quotes.	Mike Buland
	Added the new make style viewer, the simplest, lamest viewer, but it looks just like the output of make. Very useful for debugging and seeing what's going on.
2006-08-06	A load of updates, most of these made me realize that I probably could do this	Mike Buland
	whole thing a lot better. We'll see how that works out later, once I figure out how to do it better.
2006-08-05	Tweaked the cache format, it's no longer compatable with the old version, but it	Mike Buland
	is less than one tenth the size, without using anything as slow as a compresion system, I just store each string only once (it's sort of compression). I also updated the plain viewer to not be so annoying if it doesn't have anything to do.
2006-08-05	Build now uses a cachefile for all of it's requires that are generated from	Mike Buland
	other means (running other programs). It's really fast, and seems to work pretty well.
2006-08-04	Better error handling again, and about to add more language features.	Mike Buland

2006-08-04	Fixed the pymake file.	Mike Buland

2006-08-04	Updated error reporting, fixed the command line params, they work now.	Mike Buland

2006-08-02	Just a minor tweak to the build.conf file.	Mike Buland

2006-08-02	Fixed a few minor bugs and added the new viewer system, it allows you to add new	Mike Buland
	front ends that will display what build is doing in any way you want. cool! So far we have plain and percent, verbose and make are coming, make should be really easy, just print out the commands and nothing else.
2006-08-02	Build will now only perform your extra code for using programs to generate more	Mike Buland
	dependancies per target, and only if none of the other target's dependancies required a rebuild.
2006-08-02	Some minor updates to the functionality	Mike Buland

2006-08-01	It builds fine, and can build other things as well, like squirrelmud, and clean.	Mike Buland
	I need to fix the dependancy tracking so that it will only check if it needs to, sort of like pymake. And does each file as it gets to it.
2006-08-01	It actually builds, now it just needs dependancy tracking, and maybe auto-target	Mike Buland
	check triggering.
2006-07-31	It almost builds, we need to get rid of duplicate list entries and actually	Mike Buland
	store the commands somewhere so the target handler can decide if they need to be run.
2006-07-31	We're almost to rule/command generation, then only a couple of steps before it	Mike Buland
	will do it all!
2006-07-31	I still can't get the pymake file to auto-make the bison and flex .c files, but	Mike Buland
	besides that everything is looking great. There's only one thing left to parse and interpret before we can try actually building something.
2006-07-30	It's starting to look pretty good, just trying to figure out how to get through	Mike Buland
	everything that needs to be made modular and general.
2006-07-30	Found out all of the c++ stuff in bison broke in 2.2, now we have to pick a	Mike Buland
	version, there is no way around it nicely.
2006-07-30	Figured out a format I like, we'll see what happens.	Mike Buland

2006-06-08	Started design work...it's coming along	Mike Buland

2006-05-25	The initial structure has been made, now we start the real fun work...	Mike Buland
