SCRAM provides a background functionality with a project interface. The
|
| 33 |
|
|
project interface allows tailoring the system to a wide range of project
|
| 34 |
|
|
structures through the use of SCRAM project classes.
|
| 35 |
|
|
Project classes are implemented currently as GNUmakefiles and are expected
|
| 36 |
|
|
to differ between projects. They are stored in the project, not in SCRAM.

SCRAM uses the popular idea of developer and common build areas. Selection
|
| 66 |
|
|
of specific files etc. is left to the projects versioning system (e.g. CVS).
|
| 67 |
|
|
<p>
|
| 68 |
|
|
Setting up specific external products etc. is handled with a special mechanism.
|
| 69 |
|
|
Every product has a special SCRAM description file which specifies such things
|
| 70 |
|
|
as library configurations, standard locations, environment requirements etc.
|
| 71 |
|
|
Once such a file exists then a <em>'scram setup url'</em> command
|
| 72 |
|
|
will download it into your development space and
|
| 73 |
|
|
set it up for your environment ready for use. <br>
|
| 74 |
|
|
Once it is tested and the tool is to be made available to the entire project,
|
| 75 |
|
|
its name/url should be added to the 'project requirements' file via the
|
| 76 |
|
|
<Require > tag.<br>
|
| 77 |
|
|
<p>
|
| 78 |
|
|
Specifying a product to be used once its installed can be done via the
|
| 79 |
williamc |
1.4 |
BuildFile and a special <External name=<em>toolname</em>> tag.
