update_app_version remodel
The current app version model started off simple but has become a complex kludge. This is a proposal for a new design.
Directory structure:
apps/ appname1/ windows_intelx86/ 1.0/ (files) 1.1/ (files) 1.1_cuda/ (files> 1.1_opencl/ (files) i686-apple-darwin/ 1.0/ (files)
The version directories have names of the form VERSION or VERSION_PLANCLASS. The contents of a particular directory are:
- application files
- signature files (FILENAME.sig)
- a "version description file", version.xml
The structure of version.xml is:
<version> <file> <physical_name>PNAME</physical_name> [ <logical_name>LNAME</logical_name> ] [ <main_program/> ] [ <copy_file/> ] </file> ... </version>
