I once wrote a cmake-macro which created these symlink trees (only for

I think I'm convinced now. The truth is: I've always worked with
in-source build trees (always == 15+ years), having changed to
out-of-source like 3 weeks ago because of the usual issues of the
former. It's a little difficult to change 15+ years habits but I think I
have now good reasons and tools to help.



Thanks for offering to help out with CMake. It was a good discussion. We (meaning someone besides me) should probably create some sort of wiki entry as a result. The entry could have various tips for setting up editors to handle out of source builds in a nice way. I come from the opposite end of the spectrum having used CMake for almost 10 years now, I am quite used to out of source builds.

Thanks again, and if you have cycles for CMake work, there are plenty of bugs in the bug tracker... :)
