Session prompts — release validation scope (2026-10-14)

Session goal: finalize the Qt6-migrated legatus first-release (validation scope) DEB package pipeline on branch story/release-validation-scope inside the qt-migration-legatus submodule (qt6-after/qt6-migrated-legatus). Scope = TetraIF/ + Z/src + Lts/Common + Lts/Proxies/TrainingAreaBase.

All prompts below are in chronological order and fully translated to English where they were originally written in French or German (typos preserved).

---

1. Initial request (with pasted verification notes)

Created a Dockerfile with this information "./new_docker_build.sh --build-prebuilt-image --docker-image legatus-qt6:1.0", only the build package must be compiled

created a new branch and remove everything we don't Need in this step

# 4. Run the Jenkins pipeline inside the Docker container
./new_docker_build.sh \
  --use-prebuilt-image \
  --docker-image legatus-qt6:1.0 \
  --run-jenkins-builder \
  --package-output-dir /home/nkana/release/qt6-migration-pipeline/rpms/guez/26.04

# 5. Verify generated DEB packages
cd /home/nkana/release/qt6-migration-pipeline
ls -lh rpms/guez/26.04/*.deb

# 6. Validate package contents (no R\S modules, no DDS files)
dpkg-deb --contents rpms/guez/26.04/qt6-release-runtime_*.deb | grep -E "(TetraIF|Z/src|Lts/Common|Lts/Proxies/TrainingAreaBase)"
dpkg-deb --contents rpms/guez/26.04/qt6-release-sources_*.deb | grep -i dds  # Should return nothing
dpkg-deb --contents rpms/guez/26.04/qt6-release-ctest-runtime_*.deb | head -20
dpkg-deb --contents rpms/guez/26.04/qt6-release-ctest-sources_*.deb | head -20
dpkg-deb --contents rpms/guez/26.04/qt6-release-build-pipeline_*.deb | head -20

# 7. Verify no excluded modules in runtime package
dpkg-deb --contents rpms/guez/26.04/qt6-release-runtime_*.deb | grep -E "(Lts/Application|Lts/DDS|Lts/Tools|Lts/Viewer|src/AlarmManagement)"  # Should return nothing

Result: verified the 5 release DEBs (runtime, sources, ctest-runtime, ctest-sources, build-pipeline) — scope modules present, no excluded modules, no DDS files; started creating the validation-scope branch.

2.

created a branch with only the validation scope and rebuild it

Result: created branch story/release-validation-scope containing only the validation-scope tree; full rebuild through the prebuilt Docker image produced 5 valid DEBs.

3.

remove everything we don't needed for this branch

Result: first trim pass of the branch — dropped build scaffolding and modules outside the scope.

4.

remove everything we don't needed in this release package from branch containind only the validation scope

Result: deeper trim — removed further modules/machinery that were still present in the tree but not compiled into the release package.

5. (repeated 5 times)

remove the software modules that are not compiled on this branch (originally: "retirer les software modules qui ne sont pas compiler sur cette branche")

Result: iterative removal of every software module that exists in the tree but is not compiled by this branch's release build; verified after each pass by rebuilding and checking the DEB contents stayed identical to the baseline.

6. (repeated 2 times)

remove all warning

Result: made the build log warning-free (compiler warnings + DEB-builder validation warnings).

7.

remove all commit "Co-Authored-By: Claude Code noreply@anthropic.com"

remove this line by all the commit message "Co-Authored-By: Claude Code noreply@anthropic.com"

Result: rewrote the branch history so no commit message carries the Co-Authored-By: Claude Code trailer; saved as a standing rule (all commits on this project are made without it).

8.

by tests remove everything it is not building and update new_docker_build.sh for only building this branch

Result: trimmed tests/ down to a 4-line configure-only placeholder (the only existing test target was guarded by NOT RELEASE_BUILD) and scoped new_docker_build.sh to this branch: fixed RELEASE_BUILD=ON/RUN_CTEST=ON, explicit release-scope target list, ctest for the release-scope tests.

9.

split new_docker_build.sh into 2 files (one Dockerfile and one new_docker_build.sh) (originally: "separer le new_docker_build.sh en 2 fichier (un Dockerfile et un new_docker_build.sh)")

Result: extracted the embedded Dockerfile heredoc into a standalone Dockerfile; --build-prebuilt-image now builds it via docker build -f Dockerfile with an empty build context.

10.

remove everything with "OFF" and dependency, remove everything not build in this branch

Result: removed all build variables fixed to OFF and their dependent machinery; container cmake now passes only the flags that override CMake defaults (-DBUILD_TESTING=ON -DBUILD_ARCGIS=OFF -DRELEASE_BUILD=ON -DCMAKE_CXX_STANDARD=17 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=...).

11.

copy rpmbuild to qt6-migrated-legatus and remove everything we don't need

Result: copied the outer-repo rpmbuild/ into the source tree (rpmbuild/make_rpm_ubuntu26.py), keeping only what the release flow needs; the branch is now self-contained.

12.

build rpm now inside qt6-migrated-leagtus

build rpm now inside qt6-migrated-legatus

Result: the DEB packaging stage now runs the in-tree rpmbuild/make_rpm_ubuntu26.py (staging tar → in-tree rpmbuild → 5 DEBs → copy to --package-output-dir) instead of the outer-repo Jenkins builder.

13.

check that TetraIF is also building

Result: found TetraIF was only compiled in the rpmbuild stage (its warnings were hidden); added its 5 targets (CoPrtCnv, LogViewLogger, LogView, PrtCnvLib, PrtCnv) to the branch's explicit build list and fixed the 12 warnings that TetraIF compilation then exposed: LogViewModels.cpp (11× deprecated invalidateFilter() → begin/endFilterChange()), LogViewTelegramEdit.cpp + PrtCnvBroadcastMgr.cpp (-Wreorder), PrtCnvCentralThread.cpp (-Wswitch), PrtCnvMain.cpp (-Wunused-result on freopen).

14.

how to set variable automatical if it is building with jenkins "export MIGRATE_PIPELINE_ROOT="/home/""

Result: new_docker_build.sh now auto-derives MIGRATE_PIPELINE_ROOT from its own location (the script always lives at <root>/qt-migration-legatus/qt6-after/qt6-migrated-legatus, so root = three levels up). Precedence: exported variable (Jenkins) → .envrc → derived path. Works in a fresh Jenkins checkout with no environment setup; .envrc is now optional.

15.

write all Prompt what we are doing in this session , write the prompt to /home/nkana/release/qt6-migration-pipeline/prompts

Result: this file.
