Software build ek process hai jisme source code ko executable form mein convert kiya jata hai, taki usse chalaya ja sake. Simple shabdon mein, build ek tarika hai jisme developers ke likhe hue code ko machine-readable format (jaise binary files, executables) mein badla jata hai, jo system ya device par run ho sake.
Software Build ka Process:
1. Source Code Compilation : Source code ko human-readable language (jaise C++, Java, etc.) se machine-readable language (binary code) mein convert kiya jata hai using a compiler.
2. Linking : Compiled code ko necessary libraries aur modules ke sath link kiya jata hai taki sabhi dependencies resolve ho sakein.
3. Packaging : Sabhi files aur resources ko ek package ya installer mein bundle kiya jata hai taki users ya developers isse easily install ya deploy kar sakein.
Example:
- Jab tum ek Java project ko build karte ho, to tum source code ko `.java` se `.class` ya `.jar` files mein convert karte ho jo JVM (Java Virtual Machine) par run ho sakein.
- Agar tum ek Android app develop kar rahe ho, build karne par `.apk` file create hoti hai jo mobile par install ki ja sakti hai.
Types of Builds:
1. Debug Build : Isme additional debugging information hoti hai, jise development ke dauran code errors ko track karne ke liye use kiya jata hai.
2. Release Build : Ye final version hota hai jo production mein deploy hota hai. Isme debugging information ko hata diya jata hai taki performance better ho.
Build Tools:
- Maven (Java ke liye)
- Gradle (Android ke liye)
- Webpack (JavaScript projects ke liye)
- Make (C/C++ ke liye)
In short, software build ek aisa process hai jisme tumhare code ko executable format mein convert kiya jata hai taki users ya systems usse run kar sakein.
