C++ compilation task that leverages make #40

Closed Ravenwater closed 7 years ago

Ravenwater commented 7 years ago

The gcc microcontainer is not a realistic use case for compiling and building C/C++ code. The richness of the compilation universe is managed by task runners that can build their own dependencies, like make, ant, grunt, gulp, bazel, etc.

Any effort to create a container that is more realistic for building C/C++?

All these build tools have parallelization already built in, so there is going to be a fight between who is doing what.

We don't use c/c++ much so it's not something we're going to put a lot of effort into. We're happy to take contributions though.
