APLTree Details
Purpose
Whatever might be useful to other APL programmers, either as potential part of an application or by supporting the development process.
Download
The APLTree project has its own sub domain for downloading purposes: http://apltree.aplwiki.com/
By entering this URL into your favourite browser you get a list with three directories:
LatestStableVersion
- History
- Development
Examples
In this example we refer to ADOC; however, anything said here is valid for any other member of the APLTree project as well.
The latest stable version
You can download the latest stable version of ADOC from "LatestStableVersion": this directory contains at least one compressed file for every member of the APLTree project, a ZIP file for Windows versions and a TAR file for Linux versions. This is how a typical file looks like:
adoc=3-3-0=2011-08-25.zip
The file name tells you a couple of things:
- Its a ZIP file, so it's for Windows. Otherwise it would be a TAR file.
- The version number is 3.3.0
- The version date is 2011-08-25
This file contains just the stuff needed, either a script (like WinFile) or a collection of scripts (like APL2XML) or an application (like ScriptManager).
The full project
You can download the full project of any version (including the most current one) from "History". This is how a typical file looks like:
adoc=project=3-3-0=2011-08-25.zip
The information provided is the same as before plus the key word "project" which basically means that this file contains literally everything that is part of the project including the test suite.
Current development
For contributing or taking advantage of the very latest development look into "Development".
adoc=trunk=2011-08-25.zip
Note that by convention the word "trunk" is used for the latest development.
