Move the top-level user-guide.adoc and developer-guide.adoc to their
respective source directores. This is in preparation for a future
toolchain revamp.
Move the wsug_graphics directory to wsug_src/images and wsdg_graphics
directory to wsdg_src/images. Copy common_graphics/* to the each images
directory and remove common_graphics. We only have five admonition
graphics; duplicating them lets us remove some build config overhead.
Rename wsluarm.adoc to wsdg_src/wsdg_lua_support.adoc.
Remove a dummy file.
Tested visually and by enabling `--failure-level=WARN`.
That will 1) install 6.4, which isn't the recommended LTS version and 2)
install headers and libraries for MinGW-w64, not for Visual Studio.
That means that if you're trying to build with Visual Studio, things
won't work.
Removing the artificial shell prompt symbols does not hurt
legibility and makes is significantly easier to copy-paste
commands, either by double-clicking for a single line or
click and drag for a multiline block of text.
Use the variables WIRESHARK_QT{5,6}_PREFIX_PATH.
This allows having Qt5 and Qt6 paths configured isimultaneously and switch easily between them.
Use list(APPEND) to avoid clobbering other CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH paths.
Follow-up to b33210750c.
Linux builds were left behind on the Qt transition, presumably because
our Ubuntu CI image does not support Qt6.
Enable Qt6 by default and explicitly disable it for slower or more
conservative Linux distros.
Drop experimental status for Qt6, because we are using it to build
official Windows and macOS releases.
Switch to the name "Logray" for the log analyzer. Rays are biological
cousins of sharks and more people like the name "Logray" in a completely
unscientific survey here. Apologies for any inconvenience this might
cause.
CMake 3.19 added support for CMakePresets.json and
CMakeUserPresets.json, which let you prepopulate various configure,
build, and test options. Add CMakeUserPresets.json to .gitignore as
recommended by the documentation and add an example to the Developer's
Guide. CMake uses 2-space indentation; specify that for CMake*.json in
.editorconfig.
Rename the following build targets, similar to the recent macOS target
name changes:
nsis_package_prep to wireshark_nsis_prep
nsis_package to wireshark_nsis
Rename some NSIS files to reflect that they're specific to Wireshark.
Update the documentation and CI configurations.
Rename the following build targets:
app_bundle to wireshark_app_bundle
dmg_package_prep to wireshark_dmg_prep
dmg_package to wireshark_dmg
Add logwolf_app_bundle, logwolf_dmg_prep, and logwolf_dmg targets and
packaging assets. Update the documentation.
We need to add a set of Logwolf version variables to CMake and
make-version.pl. Add a static logwolf-version attribute to
attributes.adoc in the mean time.
Download our third party libraries and drivers from dev-libs.wireshark.org
in win-setup.ps1. Automatically check our state based on our library
filenames and hashes instead of a manually updated tag.
Users might want to download a source tarball and build an RPM
package from it.
Have git-export-release.sh use git-archive's 'export-subst' feature
so that it can detect whether it is being run from a git repository
versus run from source extracted from a tarball produced by git-archive.
In the latter case, produce a helpful console message telling the
user to copy the downloaded tarball into the binary directory so
that the rpm-package target can succeed. Also update the Developer's
Guide to suggest this as well.
We could try to create our own archive using tar, but there are
several possible gotchas, such as in-source builds, excluding a build
directory that is a subdirectory of the source dir, excluding unknown
different build directories from previous builds, dealing with different
options in different versions of tar, etc. This is good enough for
the common case, and anyone who wants something more complicated can
hopefully create their own tarball.
Fix#15167
If USE_qt6 is enabled, set CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to WIRESHARK_QT6_PREFIX_PATH
if it's defined. This lets you more easily switch between Qt 5 and
6 builds. Note that we have experimental support for Qt 6 in the
Developer's Guide.
It's not obvious that making a GitLab fork private will disassociate it
from the upstream repository, and it seems to have tripped up a couple
of people. Add a warning to the "Creating Merge Requests" section.
Repeated words were found with:
egrep "(\b[a-zA-Z]+) +\1\b" . -Ir
and then manually reviewed.
Non-displayed strings (e.g., in comments)
were also corrected, to ease future review.
