Thanks, that's very interesting info. For now I only care about the API. I now have a single build system that builds my science app and all its dependencies on all three platforms.
Getting CMake to build all the other BOINC components is not (yet?) in my Evil Plans. Especially not in a way that can replace the existing build systems. But if I do, I'll certainly keep your email in mind. Such a list of requirements is much better than reverse-engineering intentions from the existing scripts… El lunes, 12 de enero de 2015, Charlie Fenton <[email protected]> escribió: > Hi Nicolás, > > > I'm writing a CMake build system for BOINC > > > I'm not familiar with CMake, but please don't try to build BOINC for the > Mac via UNIX-style make files.
