- GNUstep Windows Live CD (see GNUstep Live CD and XLiveCD)
Packaging system in GNUstep-make integration
Scripts/bundles/custom extensions to the GNUstep-make so one can do:
> make package packagetype=deb
Options:
packagetype = deb | rpm | tgz (.tar.gz + installation script) | exe (MS Windows Install.exe) standalone = yes | no
For the standalone solution see below "GNUstep Deployment Environment"
GNUstep Deployment Environment
An self-sufficient environment where one can build full GNUstep solution. "Chemical equation" of the process:
Preparation:
compilation 1.) GNUstep sources --------------> Precompiled GNUstep System domaim 2.) GNUstep system domain + installation scripts --> GNUstep Development Environment 3.) GNUstep environment + integration scripts --> GNUstep Deployment environment
Then one can use the "GNUstep Deploymen Evniornment" package like this:
compilation 1.) MyApp sources ----------------> MyApp binary integration scripts 2.) GNUstep Deployment environment + MyApp binary -----------------------> My GNUstep Solution Environment
And here one has a deployable product "My GNUstep Solution Environment" with all necessary installation scripts. Variants of the "solutions":
- GNUstep system domain and my application binary (fully functional gnustep environment)
- Statically linked executable with integrated gnustep (single file + resources?)
- MyApp system-native package with predefined requirements to appropriate GNUstep packages for the given environment
Live CD Creation mechanism
Example:
> cd MyApp > make > make cdimage
And you have CD image with you application.
Can be that achieved with a tool + makefile extension + bundle of live CD stuff (.tar.gz for example)?
