Previously the Jakefile template for the capp utility would emit a template where the "configuration" build environment parameter could have multiple values. At the head of the file, the configuration parameter could be an environment variable composed of ENV['CONFIG'], ENV['CONFIGURATION'] or ENV['c']. It would default to "Debug".
However, other locations in this file did not use the detected configuration, and only looked at ENV['CONFIGURATION'] for the environment variable.
This commit fixes this by using the detected configuration environment variable as the build environment.
Previously, the index[-debug].html in the default capp templates did not include a loading progress function. We just had the plain spinner, which gave no visible sign of progress.
Now the capp templates include a progress function and a nice iOS7-ish progress thermometer is displayed during loading (except when run directly from source). 'jake debug' and 'jake release' will now generate the application/image sizes needed to display loading progress. The old spinner.gif has been removed.
In addition, the message displayed when JavaScript is unavailable has been simplified and shows a link to www.enable-javascript.com instead of the missing link to our old site.
- The new compiler requires the OBJJ_INCLUDE_PATHS environment variable to be set.
- The new XcodeCapp 3 support for Frameworks/Source requires that directory to be excluded from builds.
* State *
Previously the Converter class needlessly copied a whole bunch of state from the Nib2Cib class, which was not only poor factoring, but made for easy omissions of state when instantiating a new Converter, such as was done in NSNib.j.
This commit pushes all state not specific to Converter up to Nib2Cib. This allowed removal of redundant code in NSNib -NS_initWithCoder.
* Resources *
Previously it was not possible to use custom images that were located in a framework, because only the app's Resources directory was searched.
This commit automatically searches all frameworks for Resources directories. When a custom image is specified in Xcode, first the app's Resources directory is searched, then all framework Resource directories. Alternately, the specific framework to use can be specified in Xcode by using the form framework@image.
At runtime, the framework is loaded by its identifier (as specified in Info.plist), and if there is no identifier, by searching next to the current AppKit framework.
All of this renders the nib2cib -R option completely obsolete, so it was removed from the NibApplication/Jakefile template.
