Bug 1102

Summary: Inefficient build script when getting SDL revision number
Product: SDL Reporter: sqook
Component: buildAssignee: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Status: RESOLVED FIXED QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: trivial    
Priority: P2    
Version: HG 2.0   
Hardware: x86   
OS: Mac OS X 10.6   

Description sqook 2011-01-23 05:42:07 UTC 
Sourcing the user's .bashrc is a very inefficient way to get the path to the hg executable, especially when the hg installer places it in /usr/local by default. I suggest using the following script in the "Run Script to Create SDL_revision.h":


# The official HG installer puts the binary in /usr/local/bin, so add that
# to Xcode's path and see if the hg executable is found. Otherwise, source
# the user's bash settings file as a last resort.
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
if ! which hg ; then source ~/.bashrc ; fi
sh ../../build-scripts/updaterev.sh
