Please apply the following checklist before releasing.
- Sources
- - The version number is correctly marked in CMakeList.txt, in macros
- SIMGRID_VERSION_MAJOR and friends.
+ - The external patches (Debian, etc) are integrated.
+ The COPYING file is aligned with Debian's copyright file, and the
+ dates of SimGrid chunks are accurate.
+ - The version number is correctly marked in CMakeLists.txt (in macros
+ SIMGRID_VERSION_*), and also in sonar-project.properties
- The "make distcheck" target works (testing that every files needed
to build and install are included in the archive)
- Tests
- All tests pass on a reasonable amount of platforms (typically,
- everything on ci)
+ everything on ci + travis/Mac + AppVeyor)
- You also tested to build and install the content of the source
archive on a reasonable amount of platforms (typically, 2 or 3).
- ChangeLog file
- All changes are documented
- The release date is indicated below the changes
- - The release is marked as stable above the changes
+ - The release is marked as stable above the changes (remove the UNRELEASED marker)
- The release dub name matches the one given in NEWS file
- NEWS
- The most notable changes of the version are documented
\subsection inside_release_c_source Building the source archive
-First, clean up your git repository. Some files are included through
-globbing, you must ensure that your tree contains no cruft. You can
-either checkout a new tree or remove anything from your current tree:
+This should be done from a clean git repository because some files are
+included through globbing. The best is to use a clean checkout:
\verbatim
-$ cd simgrid
-$ git reset --hard master # warning, it will kill your uncommited changes
-$ git clean -dfx # warning, it will kill your uncommited changes
+cd /tmp
+git clone --depth=1 ~/Code/simgrid
+cd simgrid
+cmake . && make dist
\endverbatim
-You can then build the archive. This gives you your archive in the
-build dir, named 'SimGrid-${inside_release_version}.tar.gz'.
+If you prefer, you can clean your repository the hard way:
+\verbatim
+git reset --hard master # remove all uncommited changes to the files tracked by git
+git clean -dfx # delete all files and directories that are not tracked by git
+cmake . && make dist
+\endverbatim
+
+\subsection inside_release_c_jarfile Building the binary jarfile
+
+Get the jarfiles for several OSes on the CI slaves. Use Save under to
+give a separate name to each of them.
+- On Jenkins: Mac OSX, Linux 64 and Linux 32 (without boost-context), FreeBSD
+- On AppVeyor: Windows
+
+For Linux, it is safer to rebuild them in a chroot (to avoid
+boost-context and all other optional dependencies):
\verbatim
-$ mkdir build
-$ cd build
-$ cmake ..
-$ make dist
+mkdir /tmp/build-amd64
+cp SimGrid-3.*.tar.gz /tmp/build-amd64
+sudo debootstrap --arch amd64 --variant=buildd testing /tmp/build-amd64 http://deb.debian.org/debian/
+sudo chroot /tmp/build-amd64
+echo "proc /proc proc rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime 0 0" >> /tmp/fstab
+mount proc /proc -t proc
+apt-get install -y cmake default-jdk libboost-dev python3
+cd tmp
+tar xfz ../SimGrid*tar.gz && cd SimGrid-*
+cmake . -Denable_documentation=off -Denable_java=ON
+make -j4 && ctest -R java
\endverbatim
+Once all jarfiles are in a separate directory, run the following to
+merge them:
+\verbatim
+mkdir content ; cd content
+
+for j in ../simgrid-linux64.jar ../*.jar ; do unzip -n $j ; done
+# The content of all jar should be the same, but I prefer using the Linux64 version by default
+# => unpack it first, and unpack the others with -n (never overwrite)
+
+test -e doc/javadoc || echo "YOU ARE MISSING THE DOC"
+
+du -sh . # 273M here. Let's strip (Darwin is already good)
+strip NATIVE/*/*/*.so # Gets BSD and Linux versions, down to 116M
+x86_64-linux-gnu-strip NATIVE/*/*/lib*dll # Gets Windows, down to 22M
+
+rm ../simgrid-3_*.jar
+zip -r ../simgrid-3_XX.jar * # Produced ../simgrid-3_XX.jar is 7.7M
+\endverbatim
+
+To upload the file on gforge, you need to go to Files/Admin then clic
+on the Settings icon near to the "Add a version" button, and then on
+the settings icon of the release you want to change.

\subsection inside_release_c_postchecks Check list after releasing
- Tag the git repository (don't forget to push the tags to the main repo)
-- Push the archive files on gforge
-- Rebuild and resynchronize the website so that the file gets visible
- from our download page (see @ref inside_doxygen_website).
+- Push the archive files (tar.gz and jar) on gforge
+- Post a news on gforge (before updating the website)
- Update the link scm.gforge.inria.fr:/home/groups/simgrid/htdocs/simgrid/latest
+ (and create the directory of the next version)
+- Rebuild and resynchronize the website so that the file gets visible
+ from our download page.\n
+ - Edit org/org-templates/level-0.org to change the release version, the tgz link and the jar link.
+ - emacs org/site/index.org and C-c C-c the first source block to refresh the news; fake the date in the result.
+ - emacs org/site/download.org and C-c C-c the first source block to refresh the download.
+ - emacs org/site/documentation.org and edit the version links.
+ - make -C org all sync
+ - git commit -a && git push
- Announce the release
+ - Document the tag on https://github.com/simgrid/simgrid/releases
- Mail the simgrid-user mailing list
- the NEWS chunk in the mail;
+ - Hall of Fame in the mail\n
+ git shortlog -sne v3.18..
- the ChangeLog chunk as attachment
- Also mail some other lists (G5K users), with only the NEWS chunk
and the link to the download section
- - Post a news on gforge
+- Release the debian package
+ - make -C debian/rules get-orig-source

+- Deal with deprecations:
+ - Introduce the XBT_ATTRIB_DEPRECATED_v??? macro for the next release.
+ - Kill the one for the current release and remove all code that were
+ mandated by the deprecated functions (both in source and headers).
