assuming the degree of garbage in teh VDR folder is ninimal,
such a simple script could be used:
(Of course it would be more elegant if "depend" generates an exactfittung
list)
#!/bin/sh
# very frist script
FILE=cvs_revs.h
FILETMP=$FILE.tmp
mv $FILE $FILE.old
rm -f $FILETMP
echo "/* Automatically generated by $0 */" > $FILETMP
echo "static char* CVS_ALL[] = {" >> $FILETMP
grep "^\* \$Id: .*\$$" *.c *.h | sort | awk '{ print "/* Filename",$1" */","\n" "\""$2,$3,$4,$5,$6,$7,$8,$9,$10"\"," }' >> $FILETMP
echo "NULL };" >> $FILETMP
diff $FILE.old $FILETMP
if [ $? -eq 0 ] ; then
echo no change
mv $FILE.old $FILE
rm $FILETMP
else
echo change
mv $FILETMP $FILE
rm $FILE.old
fi
run in the VDR directory generates the file cvs_revs.h:
static char* CVS_ALL[] = {
/* Filename audio.c: */
"* $Id: audio.c 1.3 2005/02/12 12:40:51 kls Exp $",
/* Filename audio.h: */
"* $Id: audio.h 1.3 2005/02/12 12:20:19 kls Exp $",
/* Filename channels.c: */
"* $Id: channels.c 1.42 2005/05/29 10:32:38 kls Exp $",
... etc..
NULL };
This file may be include into "vdr.h" or "vdr.c"
The "redundant" "/* Filename audio.h: */" is
to give "patch" some fix points for "fuzzy" logic,
as this file might have many changes.
At least i hope it may help...
VDR may run a loop like:
{
#include "cvs_revs.h" /* for CVS_ALL */
int i;
for(i=0; CVS_ALL[i]!=NULL; i++)
nvprintf(LOG_DEBUG, "%s\n", CVS_ALL[i]);
nvprintf(LOG_DEBUG, "Built at: " __DATE__ " " __TIME__ "\n");
}
writing into syslog when it starts togehter with it's own version number.
There are two ways a patch can indicate it self it was applied:
If a patch is applied it could add it's own "Id$: patch" to
the modified source file.
Or it changes the CVS $Id.
At least that would be fair to do...
The "make" calls the above script and generate
the new include.
instead of "grep ...*c *.h" a "find" may be more usefull,
as it can go recursive thru the directories.
Too the files date might be included if the "patch" forgat to
change or add an Id.
The code was taken from Sergeis Haller "nvram-wakeup"
