Special Build of OpenLayers --------------------------- At the time the project was conceived, a newer version of OpenLayers was needed than the latest release, for some features and bug fixes. Subversion checks out trunk from OpenLayers, at a given revision. Then, a compressed version of OpenLayers was created from the check out. To upgrade to a newer version from source repository, update all external references to the desired revision. Then, run python script to generate new compressed version. Finally, test and commit changes. > cd (directory where readme.txt is located > svn propedit svn:externals . > svn up > cd build > ./build.py > rm ../OpenLayers.js > mv OpenLayers.js ../. > cd .. (test) > svn ci Debug build of OpenLayers ------------------------- To debug OpenLayers, one need to include all the OpenLayers files in the parent HTML file and drop the use of the compressed version of OpenLayers. OpenLayers has a large set of files, and to include them all in the proper order can be daunting. The script "all_libs.sh" generates the script statements required for the parent HTML page.
