Open wilhelmberg opened 8 years ago

wilhelmberg commented 8 years ago

Master ticket to capture ideas to improve build scripts

different overall approach
- port to mason https://github.com/mapbox/windows-builds/issues/25
- use alternative utilities, e.g. msys: https://github.com/mapbox/windows-builds/issues/7
- use ~~PowerShell~~ ScriptCs (see below) instead of Batch for most tasks ~~https://github.com/mapbox/windows-builds/issues/24~~
reactivate Debug builds https://github.com/mapbox/windows-builds/issues/58
support compilers other than VS/MSBuild
- clang
- MinGW https://github.com/mapbox/windows-builds/issues/50
speed up builds: https://github.com/mapbox/windows-builds/issues/64
have a common download directory for 32 and 64bit builds so that deps are downloaded only once https://github.com/mapbox/windows-build-server/issues/2#issuecomment-76900540

Not going to go he Powershell route.

Decided to go with ScriptCs: scripts/build.csx [wip] for mapink: https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik-gyp/compare/new-win-build-scripts
