* this package wraps the haiku_cross_devel package (i.e. it contains
that package in /develop/cross)
* the wrapper package is meant to be installed into the system
hierarchy, from where haikuporter will fetch the contained package
when needed
* add HAIKU_PACKAGING_ARCH, which is set to the target packaging
architecture
* introduce support for generic package infos, which are package infos
that are the same for all architectures, except for the declaration
of the package architecture itself
* move package info files underneath architecture-specific or generic
folder
* BuildHaikuPackage rule: Create the script that contains the extraction
commands.
* build_haiku_package: Add extractFile() function (stripped down version
from build_haiku_image).
In build_haiku_image the functionality was mainly used to extract the
optional packages, which is no longer done. We still need it e.g. for
the Wifi firmware packages that want to be extracted.
* Add new package haiku_loader.hpkg and move haiku_loader there. The
package is built without compression, so that the stage 1 boot loader
has a chance of loading it.
* Adjust the stage 1 boot loader to load the haiku_loader package and
relocate the boot loader code accordingly.
It allows to control the compression level used for package creation
and update. The default (9) is *very* slow, so developers may want to
use a smaller level during the regular development process to keep
turn-around times low.
* add vesa.accelerant, vesa driver, ps2, isa, bios, generic_x86 for x86_64 too
* only have reiserfs, firewire, agp_gart targets for x86
* reverted hrev43950, liblocale alias shouldn't be needed anymore
This means the build tools will no longer be built against the host
platform's libbe, which avoids compatibility problems -- e.g. an
older Haiku host libbe may not have certain features the build tools
require -- and also makes the build behave more similiar on Haiku and
other platforms. The host libroot dependency still remains and is not
easy to get rid of.
Also remove some bits of BeOS/Dano/Zeta build support.
* Update MimeSet rule to use the MIME DB the build system creates.
* Add CreateAppMimeDBEntries rule and call it from Link for targets that
might be applications that need to be registered with the MIME DB. For
the target the rule is invoked with it creates a directory into which
the entries for the types to be registered are written. The directory
is associated with the target via the HAIKU_MIME_DB_ENTRIES variable.
* AddFilesToContainer: If a target is added that has MIME DB entries,
also add those to the container.
* build_haiku_package: Call mimeset for the package contents.
Since the same driver can be added in more than one category, in a few
cases AddDriversToContainer was invoked twice for the same target. Avoid
adding the driver twice to add-ons/kernel/drivers/bin in such a case.
Didn't really cause any problem, but no need to copy the file twice.
* build_haiku_image: Remove MIME DB creation code.
* Rename beos_mime source directory to mime_db.
* Add rules to build the MIME DB in the source directory's jamfile.
* Add MIME DB directory to haiku.hpkg in data/mime_db.
Instead of the boolean alwaysUpdate, isCDPackage, and stripDebugSymbols
parameters use a uniform flags parameter which can contain any of the
respectively supported flags (alwaysUpdate, cdPackage,
stripDebugSymbols, !stripDebugSymbols).
* Add optional packages Zlib and Zlib-devel.
* Simplify the build feature section for zlib and also extract the
source package.
* Replace all remaining references to the zlib instance in the tree and
remove it.
* Introduce the notion of build feature attributes and add rules
SetBuildFeatureAttribute and BuildFeatureAttribute to set respectively
get a build feature attribute.
* Add rule ExtractBuildFeatureArchives to download and extract archives
and set build feature attributes to extracted entries.
* Add rule UseBuildFeatureHeaders as a shorthand for getting a build
feature attribute and adding it as a system header search directory.
We extract both packages to the same directory now, since the icu_devel
package depends on the base package and contains relative symlinks to
the libraries. ATM that isn't really relevant, since we link directly
against the libraries from the base package, but we might want to
change that eventually.
When invoked for a hpkg only the installation location (i.e. "common"
or "system") has to be specified now and "common" is the default. The
rule uses AddPackageFilesToHaikuImage now.
