The getbuildtest script was created to simplify the process of setting up a build on a new system.  It ''get''s the needed code from repositories, ''build''s the code with a compatible set of configuration options, and ''test''s the resulting binaries and submits them to the dashboard as an experimental build.
 
 
 
== getbuildtest.tcl ==
 
 
 
Three files are used as part of this process:
 
* slicer_variables.tcl contains global settings for the build process including what versions of support libraries to checkout.
 
* Scripts/genlib.tcl builds all the support libraries (puts them in Slicer3-lib)
 
* Scripts/getbuildtest.tcl calls genlib and once it completes successfully it builds slicer3 in Slicer3-build
 
 
 
MAC OS X 10.5 issues [[Slicer3:getbuildtest:macosx10.5]]
 
 
 
== getbuildtest2.tcl ==
 
 
 
The getbuildtest2 script an experimental version that should/will someday replace getbuildtest.
 
 
 
The main differences are:
 
* libraries are pulled from [[Slicer3-lib-mirror]]
 
* extra libraries like python and BatchMake are being added
 
 
 
As of September 2007, python is not building correctly with all the desired libraries so work on getbuildtest2 is still ongoing.
 
 
 
Most developers should be using getbuiltest for now.
