Installation packages naming
All builds of RSS Guard are generated automatically by GitHub. These builds have auto-generated names. In RSS Guard downloads page you can see filenames like:
rssguard-3.4.2-7bad9d1-nowebengine-win32.7z,rssguard-3.4.2-7bad9d1-win32.7z,rssguard-3.4.2-95ee6be-nowebengine-win32.exe,rssguard-3.4.2-95ee6be-win32.exe.
The structure of these filenames is quite trivial and easily understandable for advanced users. For beginners, the overall structure of the file is <projectname>-<version>-<commit>-<platform>.<fileformat>. Example:
<projectname>=rssguard(This is self-explanatory.),<version>=3.4.2(This describes the version of the application packaged in the file),<commit>=7bad9d1(This describes the Git commit used for the file. Whenever developers do some change to source code, that change gets assigned special ID, this is the ID.),<platform>=win32(This is the target platform which the application can run on.),<fileformat>=exe(This is self-explanatory.).
Note that same file naming scheme for development builds might be little different. Specifically, <version> field is omitted.
If you use 7z packages on Windows, then you need to manually install all needed MSVC++ runtime libraries. Their installers are included inside the archive.
