Developer Notes

AppleCommander has switched to using Gradle for build and build dependencies.

There is still a bunch of ANT related build information around. They no longer apply and "should" get cleaned up over time.

Structure

The project is structured as a Gradle multi-project. Independent components have been broken out and each of the SWT targets are independent.

Path Note
lib/ac-api The AppleCommander APIs. These are released via Maven and resused in several projects.
lib/ac-swt-common The SWT GUI application. Since SWT targets specific environments with native libraries, the actual applications are in the app directories.
app/cli-ac The ac CLI utility.
app/cli-acx The acx CLI utility.
app/gui-swt-<os>-<arch> The indepent SWT GUI applications; one project per combination.

Requirements

With the introduction of the Apple Silicon, AppleCommander switched over to the (relatively new) SWT libraries. With that switch, the SWT libraries now require Java 11.
