Workflow cpp-interface-vrep

The following instructions describe the workflow to create a cpp-interface-vrep branch with a specific version of CoppeliaSim.

• Clone the repository

  git clone https://github.com/dqrobotics/cpp-interface-vrep.git --recursive && cd cpp-interface-vrep

• Create a new branch using the following format name: master-v{x.y.z}-rev{w}, where {x.y.z}-rev{w}` correspond to the version of CoppeliaSim. For example, if the version of CoppeliaSim is 4.4.0-rev0,

  git checkout -b master-v4.4.0-rev0

• Checkout the submodules (coppeliarobotics/include/ and coppeliarobotics/remoteApi) to match the version of CoppeliaSim.

  cd coppeliarobotics/include/
  git checkout coppeliasim-v4.4.0-rev0

  cd ..
  cd remoteApi/
  git checkout coppeliasim-v4.4.0-rev0 

• Implement the required modifications to ensure that cpp-interface-vrep compiles and passes the tests.

• Update the debian folder {rules, control, changelog}. Check this example, and this PR.

  • Update the first line of debian/changelog with the package name:

    cpp-interface-vrep/debian/changelog

    Line 1 in 60141a7

    libdqrobotics-interface-vrep-4.4.0-0 (19.10.0) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium

  • Update the source, package, and conflicts in debian/control:

    cpp-interface-vrep/debian/control

    Line 1 in 60141a7

    Source: libdqrobotics-interface-vrep-4.4.0-0

    cpp-interface-vrep/debian/control

    Lines 8 to 9 in 60141a7

    	Package: libdqrobotics-interface-vrep-4.4.0-0
    	Conflicts: libdqrobotics-interface-vrep

  • Update the COPPELIASIMTAG and PACKAGETAG in debian/rules:

    cpp-interface-vrep/debian/rules

    Lines 4 to 6 in 60141a7

    	COPPELIASIMTAG = coppeliasim-v4.4.0-rev0
    	# A more standardized naming of the version above
    	PACKAGETAG = 4.4.0-0

    cpp-interface-vrep/debian/rules

    Lines 15 to 16 in 60141a7

    	git clone --single-branch --branch $(COPPELIASIMTAG) https://git.launchpad.net/~dqrobotics-dev/dqrobotics/+git/coppelia-include coppeliarobotics/include
    	git clone --single-branch --branch $(COPPELIASIMTAG) https://git.launchpad.net/~dqrobotics-dev/dqrobotics/+git/coppelia-remoteApi coppeliarobotics/remoteApi

    cpp-interface-vrep/debian/rules

    Line 33 in 60141a7

    dpkg-gencontrol -plibdqrobotics-interface-vrep-$(PACKAGETAG)

• Check that cpp-interface-vrep compiles and installs using the developer workflow. For instance:

  chmod +x debian/rules
  fakeroot debian/rules clean
  fakeroot debian/rules build
  fakeroot debian/rules binary
  cd ..
  sudo dpkg -i libdqrobotics-interface-vrep-4.4.0-0_19.10.0_amd64.deb
