Difference between revisions of "Creating an OJ release version"

Revision as of 18:41, 20 October 2010

update the readme.txt
summarize the changes to the previous version, based on the change log file (copy/sorting out)
compile everything with the Ant script (check the java version to compile against)
add the license, openjump.exe, and readme files (if not already included)
so the platform independent zip & source release may be ready after copying the lic files into the zip (but best is to compare the zip content of an older release with the just created version)
create a win-installer using Nullsoft NSIS (maybe with a pointer to download java 1.6) and include before-hand the ecw and mrsid libs into this edition (see also the notes on the svn for the past releases: e.g. for OJ 1.3.1)
create another zip/release version that includes the sextante tools, postgis and print-plugin; based on the platform independent zip
write the release notes
upload the files to sourceforge
make an announcement on slashgeo & our wiki & our sourceforge new section & change our webpage/links
finally, updating of the documentation on the wiki on the new functions
