Roger Leigh commented on XERCESC-2136:
--------------------------------------
So long as we've automated away most of the manual updates, it's at least a
partial gain!
Unless there's anything else, I think we are ready to roll out another release
candidate for approval. Do you want to do it or shall I?
> Add support for versioning sources and documentation automatically

> Key: XERCESC-2136
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-2136
> Project: Xerces-C++
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Build, Utilities
> Affects Versions: 3.2.0
> Reporter: Roger Leigh
> Assignee: Roger Leigh
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.2.1
>
> Attachments:
> 0001-Automatically-generate-versioned-documentation-and-h.patch
>
>
> Making a release requires a number of manual updates to various files
> including:
> * configure.ac
> * versions.incl
> * xerces-c.spec
> * src/xercesc/util/XercesVersion.hpp
> * doc/style/dtd/entities.ent
> * doc/source-repository.xml
> * doc/Doxyfile
> It would be more efficient to make the majority of these updates automatic.
>
> I've worked on some simple updates to the autoconf and cmake builds to do the
> following:
> * move library versioning into configure.ac (no separate updates to
> versions.incl)
> * generate a Xerces_version_config.hpp header like the
> Xerces_autoconf_config.hpp header, for inclusion by XercesVersion.hpp
> * generating entities.ent to automate docs version updates
> * making source-repository.xml use version entities to eliminate manual
> updates
> * generating Doxyfile to avoid manual version updates
>
> This narrows down updates to two files:
> * configure.ac
> * xerces-c.spec
>
> I'll attach a patch once I've done some more testing.
