Re: [Inkscape-devel] Win32 cross-compiled build

Hi Bob,

This build seemed to open up OK. So far it seems to work well with no obvious problems.

I checked the build though and the Inkscape screen says build031231. This is confusing to say the least. Is it 031231 or 040106?

Text zoom to 25600% seems good and I notice the width has been increased-thanks. text shapes etc seem good

Will play more soon.

Yes, I should fix the date. Since I created the makefiles for a non-automated PC world, I have the date hardcoded. I guess now that I can automate the builds, something like

DTG = `date +%y%m%d.%H%M`

VERSION = "0.37cvs${DTG}"

might work.

This would make "0.37cvs040107.1556"

Is that OK? This is in case more than one build happens to occur in a day. And it remains sortable.
