Documentation on compiling? about applecommander HOT 7 CLOSED

There is a start here: https://github.com/AppleCommander/AppleCommander/blob/master/DEVELOPER.md

However, I do tend to keep things light. Let me know if there is anything else needed.

I tend to develop on a Linux desktop, so if you're on other platforms, there may be adjustments/enhancements to make.

It appears that newer versions of Java require newer versions of Gradle.

$ ./gradlew test

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Could not determine java version from '11.0.1'.

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

* Get more help at https://help.gradle.org

This post says: Gradle has fixed the issue in Gradle 4.7 .

But you appear to be using a version of gradle installed in your AppleCommander distro, so my upgrading gradle won't immediately fix that, I think?

Just bumped the version of Gradle to the latest:

$ ./gradlew --version

Gradle 5.6.2

It works now!
I suggest adding a note to DEVELOPER.md saying that the built .jar files are in /build/libs, and also that you should use the win64 version if you have Windows 64-bit, and also that the .jar filename will be set to the name of the current working directory.

Thanks!

I tried to compile the new version, to see if the Windows bug has been fixed, and I can't figure out how to compile it.
I didn't keep notes on how I did it last time, but it seems to use a different process, since ./gradlew test doesn't do anything except print informational messages, and there is no build/libs directory.
Please put some instructions somewhere on how to compile AppleCommander.

The updates for #35 are included in AppleCommander 1.6.0, and you can download it here: https://github.com/AppleCommander/AppleCommander/releases/tag/v1-6-0

As far as compiling, it's the Gradle ecosystem. Notes here: https://github.com/AppleCommander/AppleCommander/blob/master/DEVELOPER.md

Gradle is here: https://gradle.org/. This is a big topic and I don't think AC should be documenting how to use or setup Gradle. If details are missing, then certainly, that should be remediated.
