#425 closed task (wontfix)

set up buildslave for Windows SMB (WinFUSE) frontend

Reported by: warner Owned by: ndurner
Priority: major Milestone: eventually
Component: packaging Version: 1.0.0
Keywords: windows test docs smb install buildbot Cc:
Launchpad Bug:

Description

We'd like to get the source code for our winfuse plugin (plus the installer that allmydata.com makes available on the [​http://allmydata.com/download download page]) into the open. The long-term plan is to have a buildbot that will compile/build this installer automatically upon each checkin, just like we do for debian packages and the Mac application.

The first step towards this goal will be to document the build process: a recipe that starts with "svn checkout ...", then has some instructions like "push the 'Build All' button in this IDE", and ends with "copy the .../foo.exe up to the web server".

Mike, could you make up such a recipe and attach it to this ticket? That will help us make progress on the automation task.

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

Building the windows components requires a Visual Studio 2005 compiler. The batch file currently expects this to be installed in the standard install location "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8"

To build the windows components use the following steps:

  1. checkout the latest source using darcs from user@…:/home/darcs/tahoe-w32-client
  1. execute the winbuild.bat file located in the "./tahoe-w32-client/WinFUSE" directory
  1. Copy the following list of files from the "./tahoe-w32-client/WinFUSE/bin/Release" folder into the installation directory.

WinFUSE.exe.config WinFUSE.exe TahoeFS.dll NeoGeo?.Library.SMB.Provider.dll NeoGeo?.Library.SMB.dll AllmydataTray?.exe AllmydataMapping?.exe AllmydataManager?.exe allmydata_requires_permission.exe

  1. After installation the above list of files should end up in the "C:\Program Files\Allmydata 3.0\Install\winfuse" directory.

Hm, I think this ticket is mostly done -- ​http://allmydata.org/trac/tahoe-w32-client . Is anything missing? I'll ask Nils Durner. ndurner: would you say that the Windows client is fully visible to the public now? Thanks.

Hmmm, shouldn't this ticket also be closed because of the removal of the Windows application in #1282?

Replying to francois:

Have we given up on getting the NeoGeo SMB library open-sourced? If we have, then we might as well wontfix all of the WinFUSE tickets (which happens to be only this one and #376).

comment:16 follow-up: Changed at 2011-01-03T06:22:20Z by zooko

Yes, I give up on getting the source code to the NeoGeo SMB library. However, people should investigate ​dokan! :-)

The development of that seems to have picked up a bit since the last time I looked. Also there is a 'Dokan SSHFS', which is certainly worth testing with the SFTP frontend (#1289).
