= xadd - tool for adding database items =

'''xadd''' adds [BoincPlatforms platform] and [AppVersion application] records to the BOINC database.
Information is read from an XML file '''project.xml''' in the project's root directory.
Run '''xadd''' from the project root directory, i.e.:

{{{
cd ~/projects/project_name
./bin/xadd
}}}

The structure of '''project.xml''' is:
{{{
  <boinc>
    <app>
        <name>setiathome</name>
        <user_friendly_name>SETI@home</user_friendly_name>
    </app>
    ...
    <platform>
        <name>anonymous</name>
        <user_friendly_name>anonymous</user_friendly_name>
    </platform>
    <platform>
        <name>i686-pc-linux-gnu</name>
        <user_friendly_name>Linux/x86</user_friendly_name>
    </platform>
    <platform>
        <name>windows_intelx86</name>
        <user_friendly_name>Windows/x86</user_friendly_name>
    </platform>
    <platform>
        <name>powerpc-apple-darwin</name>
        <user_friendly_name>Mac OS X</user_friendly_name>
    </platform>
    ...
  </boinc>
}}}

'''xadd''' adds new entries, and updates the '''user_friendly_name''' of existing entries.
To change other fields, use the [HtmlOps administrative web interface].
To remove entries, edit the database directly with SQL.

To create [AppVersion app versions], use [AppVersionNew update_versions].
