@vladdoster: ping. I've revived the patch and expect a merge
@vladdoster: Why this still has not been merged?
Closing in favor of PR feat: configure, make, cmake, and build ices (#613).
Description
I think that the PR is important so I'm refreshing it (old: #458).
After the
configure''
ice has been added the building of programs from sources became simpler. The new icebuild''
is one step further –zinit null configure make for …
will be equivalent ofzinit build for …
. The new ice is just a "pull-in" ice, as all that it does is to pull-in the other 3 ices.null
ice pulling can be blocked withnonull
. Parameters given tobuild''
are passed to the underlyingmake''
ice.Motivation and Context
The motivation is to type-less and to have a clear way of compiling apps with zinit. With
build''
ice there's a single method of building all kinds of software, from autotools to meson. I also add a test case and update README.md.Usage examples
How Has This Been Tested?
I've been using the ice with no problems for about of 8 months with no problems, for a variety of software, like the above examples.
