Addition of a build system generator #4

Closed elfring closed 8 years ago

elfring commented 10 years ago

I suggest to reuse a higher level build system than your current small make files so that powerful checks for software features will become easier.

CMake
Autotools

ibayer commented 10 years ago

Can you give a concret example for such a powerful check and why this can't be done by a simple extension of the existing makefile. As I see it the current makefile gets the job done.

elfring commented 10 years ago

Would you like to look at other information sources about make file portability again?

elfring commented 8 years ago

Does a tool like "autoscan" show any software dependencies that you find worth for further considerations?
How do you think about to support more development environments by the reuse of build system generators?
