I have found CMake to work without problems on all my systems, provided it is configured correctly. Same can be said of Scons & basic make, if you set up the initial configuration correctly - it "just works". If you screw up or just hack together the project configuration - it'll be problematic regardless of the tool you use. > Another point : you are all saying that have to do two things > ( build a projet with Cmake and after load this project in > Visual Studio to generate a solution) is faster and easier than > just do one thing (build the sources with Scons), and I really do > not unerstand that. > No, people are saying that they prefer *developing* with project files, something only the CMake system performs at this time. When putting together something new or debugging existing code, working in an IDE (through the use of a project file) where one can jump to the definition of a function or open a header file with a click becomes immensely useful. Whilst people keep saying (and have for a while) that Scons CAN make project files and hence CMake is not required - they have yet to actually do so. If Blender's Scons configuration actually did this - there could be a proper debate about things. As it stands, CMake is faster and provides the project files Scons does not. -- Regards, Benjamin Tolputt Analyst Programmer _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
