Re: How can I set the CFBundleVersion according to subversion/Versions revision number?
This one-liner will return the current BASE revision of your working
copy:
svn info | grep Revision | sed s/'Revision: '//
We use this snippet in Checkout to set the CFBundleVersion value in
the Info.plist at build time. We don't use Xcode to build the app,
and there might be a more efficient way to manipulate your Info.plist
than this when you're not running a Python interpreter anyways
already, but adding a custom script like the one below as a build
phase for your target should work (if you're developing on Leopard
that is, if I remember correctly, plistlib was not included with the
Python distribution that shipped with Tiger, but you could install
it):
(set shell to: /usr/bin/python, add your Info.plist to the list of
input files in the "Run Script Phase" window)
# --- begin of script
import plistlib
import os
from sys import argv
plistPath = argv[len(argv) - 1]
plistDict = plistlib.readPlist(plistPath)
currentSVNRevision = os.popen("svn info | grep Revision | sed
s/'Revision: '//").read().strip()
plistDict['CFBundleVersion'] = currentSVNRevision
# working with strings is easy in Python, something like what's below
should help with the short version
shortVersionString = u'MyApp v.1.0, build number %s' %
(currentSVNRevision)
plistDict['CFBundleShortVersionString'] = shortVersionString
# finally, overwrite the old plist file with the modified dictionary
plistlib.writePlist(plistDict, plistPath)
# --- end of script
Written mostly from memory, so fingers crossed that it actually works.

Re: How can I set the CFBundleVersion according to subversion/Versions revision number?
I assume that you are asking here how to add your current commit revision to the application version? like V1.0 build 3212 after a quick google as I couldnt remember where it came from ;) this is what I found and use http://www.red-sweater.com/blog/23/automatic-build-sub-versioning-in-xcode it works for me and I set the script to only run on release builds. Also make sure the APPLICATION_VERSION var is set in the project not the target build settings as this could then cause issues with the debug and release versions not updating the application version correctly (took a while to work that one out!)

Yeah, the end result ($Rev: 345 $) doesn't look good. Johan --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Versions" group.

If you look at the properties tab of the inspector you will see a list of keywords. These are expanded when a file is fetched but they don't look particularly nice, I don't think that they would be acceptable in your plist, in any case it is the revision of the plist. /Michael --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Versions" group.

How can I set the CFBundleVersion according to subversion/Versions revision number?
Hi, I am sure this problem has a simple solution: How can I use the subversion/Versions revision number as the CFBundleVersion in my Xcode project? Maybe it even is a nice, clean and efficient way to get the CFBundleShortVersionString set correctly? Thanks! Johan CFBundleVersion: identifies an iteration (released or unreleased) of the application. CFBundleShortVersionString: [major revisions to the application]. [revisions that implement less prominent features].[maintenance releases] PS: Hm, seems like my post timed out? This is second attempt.
