Antonio Vieiro commented on NETBEANS-2455:
------------------------------------------
[~ebakke] the objective is to _generate_ a PNG file on each build from a
template. This generated PNG file (splash screen, about screen) will imprint
the build number ("11.0", "12.0", "dev-XXXX-YYYY"), so when you start the IDE
you can see what version you're running.
This generation of the PNG file will be done in the build system, using an Ant
task, at compile time. In order to timestamp the template PNG with an
appropriate font we'll need to create a BufferedImage with the image template,
then load a TrueType font (Montserrat, it seems) and then stamp the build
number ("11.0", "12.0", "dev-XXXX-YYYY" on the image) using
java.awt.Graphics.drawString.
For the build system to load the image we'll need to upload it to OSU/OSL
(where are binaries are currently hosted) so we can download it (as any other
binary) at build time. In order to include it in the build system we'll need to
update the existing license files and add the proper license information.
If eveything goes well (we couldn't upload binaries on monday, we can now) we
can have this done by next weekend.
