Remove Z3 version hardcoding #1

Closed es3n1n closed 1 year ago

es3n1n commented 1 year ago

that’s pretty much it

https://github.com/HexRaysSA/goomba/blob/main/makefile#L18

0xeb commented 1 year ago

Seconded.

Or update https://github.com/HexRaysSA/goomba/blob/main/z3/readme.txt which says 4.11.2 (conflicting with the makefile).

es3n1n commented 1 year ago

Totally forgot about this file. I think we should stick to the latest version anyways.

0xeb commented 1 year ago

In that case, the Makefile should then not hardcode the version numbers.

Basically, we unzip the contents of 'bin' and 'include' to /z3/[include|bin] (without having \z3\z3-version...).

We update the README.txt in the z3 folder to instruct how to unzip and to get latest sources.

es3n1n commented 1 year ago

Sounds reasonable.

It still makes me wonder why was that path hardcoded in the first place.

But yeah, i think i should just better remove this hardcoded path and correct instructions on how to unzip the z3 release in this folder.

0xeb commented 1 year ago

I thought it was hardcoded because they mentioned the specific versions in the readme.txt leading me to think that they require a specific version (for some reason).

I tried with 4.11.2 and it seems you tried with latest. Both work.

No need to hard code, just update readme.txt extraction instructions, update makefile to remove version hardcoding.

0xeb commented 1 year ago

latest commit, looks good. Thanks.

es3n1n commented 1 year ago

So yeah, i removed the version hardcoding.

Yet the Z3BIN option still exists so you technically can still switch z3 bins from the makefile if you want it.

Looks more user-friendly at least for me.
