wyUpdate.wyp file format

Hello,

I am currently evaluating wyBuild for integration with my project.Is it possible to save the wyUpdate.wyp file in an XML or another text format instead of binary?I would like to add that file to a repository and text format helps finding the diffs between two project versions.

Also, do you have an issue tracking system for making this a feature request if not currently possible?

Regards,George

Hey George,

An XML format is planned eventually. But the binary format will still be used in the next upcoming versions.

Hi Sam,

I have not checked your source code yet, but do you accept patches for the wyBuild?I could have a look on how to add an optional XML project format instead of a binary one.

wyBuild isn't open source (wyUpdate and the AutomaticUpdater are).

It does not seem to be obfuscated though, so you can still change it.

(a) That's breaking the license agreement.

(b) Switching to an XML format is not an easy change (even with the properly commented official source code). It's not even a desirable change (for speed reasons). That's one of the main reasons we've held off on an XML format file.

a) Sorry, forgot about the license.

b) But in the "Building from Commandline" it seems you can use -add="<xml filename>" and that has most of the items in the project. What is missing is the Company, Product Name, URLs and theme options. So, my guess is that you could add these as well to the xml you add and skip using the project at all.
