[joerg.hampel]

Hallo liebe WUELUGer!!

Nach der Sommerpause hat uns das Projektgeschäft wieder fest im Griff, aber für den nächsten WUELG-Termin im Oktober nehmen wir uns natürlich Zeit!

Für das 14. Treffen der WUELUG am 28. Oktober 2021 haben wir uns ein spannendes Thema ausgesucht:

Von Abhängigkeiten und Paketen

Wir werden ganz allgemein über verschiedene Strategien der Verwaltung von Abhängigkeiten sowie über Tools wie VIPM oder Project Dragon und NI Package Manager sprechen. An der konkreten Agenda arbeiten wir noch.

Alle Präsentationen werden in Englisch gehalten. Die Meeting-Details findet ihr weiter unten. Bitte meldet Euch unbedingt auf Eventbrite an!

Finally, our agenda is starting to come together!

• I will share with you how we like to keep dependencies inside the project folders here at HSE, and why that is problematic
• Stefan Lemmens will present their own package management solution based on the "Conan" package manager
• Steen Schmidt will grant some insight into how GPower approaches code quality and design for reuse (like with packages)
• Jim Kring will talk about the latest release of JKI's Project Dragon

Don't miss this meeting, it will be enormously informative 🙂

Hi Everybody,

thanks for the interest and great response. Here's my presentation.

If you have any additional questions about Conan as a package manager, about tips and tricks for Git Fork or about the scripts we use behind the scenes to streamline the process just let me know (here or on Twitter @stefan_lemmens).

Best Regards,

Stefan Lemmens

Liebe WUELUGer, dear WUELUGians!!

Our 14th meeting was another great one! Record numbers (95 registrations, close to 70 people overall) tell me that we're on the right track picking our topics. Presenters - both well-known and new to WUELUG - who know what they're talking about, and an audience that keeps the meeting alive with great questions... what could we ask more for?

A big shout-out and thank you to all the participants, and to the presenters Stefan (again) and Steen! Any presentation slides we get I'll share on our Google Drive and put them into the /Meetings/WUELUG14/ folder. 

I've edited the recording into two separate videos on Youtube:

• Package Management using Conan (Stefan Lemmens)
• Code Quality & Design for Reuse (Steen Schmidt)

As always, we're collecting feedback etc in our "Organisational" thread. Ideas and suggestions for new topics go into the "Topic Suggestions" Thread or into our Doodle at http://bit.ly/WUELUG-Doodle-2021.

The next meeting is planned for January 2022 - again, I fear it might be another virtual one...

Stay safe, and see you soon,

Jörg

Hello,

I've seen the videos and slides to this topic and wanted to try it out. Is it maybe possible that you could share your conanfile.py and also the conan create/install.bat?

Hi Peter,

I don't work at Intersoft Electronics anymore and don't have access to those conanfiles or bat-files anymore.
So unfortunately I won't be able to help you.

Fyi, in my new job I switched (back) from using Conan as a package manager to NIPM.

Best Regards,

Stefan
