Subject: [PATCH/RFC] Makefile: Fix compilation of windows resource file
Date: Mon, 20 Jan 2014 20:22:20 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <52DD857C.6060005@ramsay1.demon.co.uk> (raw)


If the git version number consists of less than three period
separated numbers, then the windows resource file compilation
issues a syntax error:

  $ touch git.rc
  $ make V=1 git.res
  GIT_VERSION = 1.9.rc0
  windres -O coff \
            -DMAJOR=1 -DMINOR=9 -DPATCH=rc0 \
            -DGIT_VERSION="\\\"1.9.rc0\\\"" git.rc -o git.res
  C:\msysgit\msysgit\mingw\bin\windres.exe: git.rc:2: syntax error
  make: *** [git.res] Error 1
  $

[Note that -DPATCH=rc0]

In order to fix the syntax error, we replace any rcX with zero and
include some additional 'zero' padding to the version number list.

Hi Junio,

This patch is marked RFC because, as I was just about to send this
email, I realized it wouldn't always work:

    $ touch git.rc
    $ make V=1 GIT_VERSION=1.9.dirty git.res
    windres -O coff \
              -DMAJOR=1 -DMINOR=9 -DPATCH=dirty \
              -DGIT_VERSION="\\\"1.9.dirty\\\"" git.rc -o git.res
    C:\msysgit\msysgit\mingw\bin\windres.exe: git.rc:2: syntax error
    make: *** [git.res] Error 1
    $

:-D

I suspect it would be easier to change GIT-VERSION-GEN to also set, say,
GIT_VERSION_MAJOR, GIT_VERSION_MINOR and GIT_VERSION_PATCH ...

ATB,
Ramsay Jones
