Installation packages naming

Windows builds of RSS Guard are generated automatically by the tool called AppVeyor. These builds have auto-generated names. In RSS Guard downloads page you can see filenames like:

  • rssguard-3.4.2-7bad9d1-nowebengine-win32.7z,
  • rssguard-3.4.2-7bad9d1-win32.7z,
  • rssguard-3.4.2-95ee6be-nowebengine-win32.exe,
  • rssguard-3.4.2-95ee6be-win32.exe.

The structure of these filenames is quite trivial and easily understandable for advanced users. For beginners, the overall structure of the file is <projectname>-<version>-<commit>-<platform>.<fileformat>. Example:

  • <projectname> = rssguard (This is self-explanatory.),
  • <version> = 3.4.2 (This describes the version of the application packaged in the file),
  • <commit> = 7bad9d1 (This describes the Git commit used for the file. Whenever developers do some change to source code, that change gets assigned special ID, this is the ID.),
  • <platform> = win32 (This is the target platform which the application can run on.),
  • <fileformat> = exe (This is self-explanatory.).

Note that same file naming scheme for development builds might be little different. Specifically, <version> field is omitted.
