Download source from ftp.rtems.org before the package's URL if
a release.
If a user adds a URL via the command line that is used then the
RTEMS release path then the package's URL.
A user can add --url=file://path/../morepath to have the RSB use
a local cache of source on their hard disk. This is useful if you
need to wipe the RSB and start again. Save away the 'sources' and
'patches' directories to a common directory and provide it with via
the --url option using the 'file://' prefix.
Closes#2482.
VERSION is an INI format file with 2 sections:
1. version
The version of the release. It contains:
release = version-string
2. hashes
A list of hashes for packages that are formed when creating a release.
A hash entry is:
file-name = hash-type checksum
The approach means we do not need to hold hash values in configuration files
which need to be updated when a release is made. The release scripts can
generate the hashes when creating the release.
Update the version to 4.12.
Add support to release the RSB by adding the VERSION file. The file
is a single line with the version.
Fix the reports to include the version. Update the INI file
support to include the details of the build.
Show the GIT or released version when the command starts.
Closes#2480.
The change fixes installing for RTEMS 3rd Party packages where the
RSB considered them Canadian Cross Compiling (Cxc). Fixing the
Cxc issue broke real Cxc builds. The change corrects the issue of
macros being changed in the Cxc and the prep data not being udpated.
The configuration is loaded again after the updated macros. The
macros are also copied and restored to ensure a clean stable base.
The change also introduces --rtems-tools and --rtems-bsp to align
the command line with the waf configure process or RTEMS application.
