Hello,
as a follow up of the issues mentioned here
https://lists.rtems.org/pipermail/devel/2020-April/059472.html
I modified the build system specification to remove the use of
Doorstop-specific features. This includes the following attributes:
* active
* derived
* header
* level
* normative
* ref
* reviewed
Sometimes also the "text" attribute.
I changed how links are specified. Links are now an ordered list as
specified by the specification item editor. Each list element is a
dictionary with two required keys: "uid" and "role". For the build
system, the role is "build-dependency". The UID can be absolute or
relative. Items are stored with their absolute UID in a dictionary.
Relative links are converted to absolute UIDs using the Python os.path
module functions. With relative UIDs it is easy to write localized
specification items:
https://git.rtems.org/sebh/rtems.git/tree/spec/build/bsps/sparc/leon3/grp.yml?h=build
Since links remain now in the order specified by the item editor, I was
able to remove the "order" attribute and also the "top-level" group
attribute.
A Doorstop installation is no longer required. The build specification
can be maintained with a text editor. It could be useful to add a "./waf
verify-spec" command to verify that the build specification items are sane.
