Alan, you don't even have a Windows box set up at the moment. If you want to toss me a guaranteed test harness that's Windows native, and it works, then we can make that pronouncement. Meanwhile you are leaping to conclusions because you want it to work. > He did complain the delivered options were in > the wrong form for non-MSYS windows systems, but there is an obvious remedy > for that which I have already discussed. If it's obvious I missed it. And I don't understand why this means it "works" in any event. Sounds to me like it could work, not that it does work. I spent a lot of time on Chicken Scheme internals with escaped double quotes and path convention problems. More time than I spent on CMake per se. Cleaning that kind of stuff up is hell. No way would I assume it all works. > pkg-config has been good for our PLplot needs for all but the non-MSYS > windows case, and it now looks like from the recent tests you and Andreas > have performed we can easily extend it to that case as well. > > Thanks for making the test. Kudos to both you and Andreas for doing that > despite your reluctance to use pkg-config for your own particular needs. Boy are you overconfident! Get a Windows box up for testing.
