| | |
| For applications that have no own release schedule beside the release with the KDE Applications releases,
| |
| it is often forgotten to increase the application version.
| |
| | |
| This can lead to confusing version numbers in the about dialog and lower the quality of the bugs reported,
| |
| as it is not clear which version is really affected.
| |
| | |
| To make this easier, the release scripts will auto-update the following CMake variables in the toplevel CMakeLists.txt of all applications bundled in the KDE Applications:
| |
| | |
| # KDE Application Version, managed by release script
| |
| set (KDE_APPLICATIONS_VERSION_MAJOR "15")
| |
| set (KDE_APPLICATIONS_VERSION_MINOR "04")
| |
| set (KDE_APPLICATIONS_VERSION_MICRO "0")
| |
| | |
| You can then use them to define the version for your own application based on this.
| |
| | |
| For example Kate will do in its CMakeLists.txt:
| |
| | |
| set (KDE_APPLICATIONS_VERSION "${KDE_APPLICATIONS_VERSION_MAJOR}.${KDE_APPLICATIONS_VERSION_MINOR}.${KDE_APPLICATIONS_VERSION_MICRO}")
| |
| | |
| and then use this in the config.h.cmake:
| |
| | |
| #define KATE_VERSION "${KDE_APPLICATIONS_VERSION}"
| |
| | |
| This is then passed to the KAboutData:
| |
| | |
| /**
| |
| * construct about data for Kate
| |
| */
| |
| KAboutData aboutData(QStringLiteral("kate"), i18n("Kate"), QStringLiteral(KATE_VERSION),
| |
| i18n("Kate - Advanced Text Editor"), KAboutLicense::LGPL_V2,
| |
| i18n("(c) 2000-2014 The Kate Authors"), QString(), QStringLiteral("http://kate-editor.org"));
| |
| | |
| Beside using the full version, you could only use the patch release version ${KDE_APPLICATIONS_VERSION_MICRO} to suffix your own version if you don't want to do that manually for each patch release.
