  • Change version number in the top-level CMakeLists.txt.

    All other places the version number occurs are files generated by CMake from a corresponding *.in file.

  • Run make abicheck. There should be no changes.

    You may have to run the following command in the current "stable" directory before this will succeed, since it depends on there being an ACC dump file in place already.

    $ abi-compliance-checker -lib tabula -dump abi.xml

    This assumes a working tree that looks something like this:

    projects/
   libtabula/
      4.0.0/                # unpacked stable tarball
      head/                 # Fossil repo working checkout

    The working checkout directory's name doesn't matter, it just needs to be next to the stable tree so that ../4.0.0 finds it.

    This dependence on an existing ABI dump file is deemed reasonable since the ABI of the stable version had better not be changing! Plus, it saves some processing time, since ACC can load the stable ABI info without re-parsing its headers and library file.

  • Reconfigure the build system in pedantic mode, then do a clean rebuild. Fix any new errors and warnings.

    Known bogus warnings:

    • Query's std::basic_ios<> base class is not being initialized. Yes, we know. We don't care.

    • The == float comparisons in lib/stadapter.cpp are harmless. They're comparisons against special NaN and `infinity`` constants. Those are safe.
