IntroductionSourcery is a development tool that manages all of the source code and resources that make up a project.
Latest Changes
Lots of bug fixes. GCC integration enhancements.
Details
Sourcery has been designed to provide an easy to use replacement for the Acorn make tool supplied with the Acorn C/C++ development system.
Like make, Sourcery will manage the source code that makes up a project but unlike make it will also manage the various resources files that are required to produce a RISC OS application. These include Sprite, Message and Template files.
Sourcery does not try and tie the developer to one set of tools or compilers. Instead, it aims to use whatever the developer wants to use, be it the Acorn C/C++ tools, GCC or any other language including compiled and interpreted languages.
To this end, Sourcery allows the developer to define the tools that will be used to build their project and to define common project types such as RISC OS applications, modules, libraries or any other kind of project you can think of.
Some of the features that Sourcery offers include:
* Filer like display of source and resource files
* Resource template files
* Ability to chain tools together. eg link followed by squeeze
* Create definitions for any compiler or tool
* Auto generation of !Run file module dependencies
* Auto generation of make files
* Support for CVS and Subversion
