The buildserver will build all vvvv related sources once a day (at 0800) and automatically report problems. Whenever we have a successful build with no reported errors we can optionally release that build to the public.

All steps described in:
HowTo Release VVVV
HowTo Release AddOns?
should be scriptable and triggerable in different granularities.

Build

• update from all svn-repositories (vvvv and addons)
• build vvvv and addons
• run tests (which are still to come)

Report

Errors

• report to user who commited the troubling code

Warning:

• nodes missing a helppatch
• nodes that have changed but their helppatch has not been updated
• nodes that have changed but are not listed in the diffff.xml file

Release

• increase vvvvs major version number and compile vvvv.exe again
• tag the svn
• pack into .zip files: vvvv, addonpack
• upload .zip files to wiki
• update Downloads page: move last version to section 'Older Versions' and add this release

BuildScript

Addon BuildScript?

Build depenencies for vvvv
