----------------------------------------------------------------
Interesting idea about build.win.
I think there should be a setup script in the repository, but the script could
be run from wherever we want the build tree to be constructed and operated.
This could even provide the properly-parameterized CMake command.
Just thoughts. Not baked yet. A lot depends on how many different things
there are to build and how many variations of builds for them are of interest.
It would be good to minimize that in the core repository and let others worry
about variations for custom purposes.

> Key: COR-22
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COR-22
> Project: Corinthia
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Environment: All
> Reporter: Dennis E. Hamilton
> Labels: building, cmake, external-resources
>
> When building from the source, all transient data, including downloads of
> externals, should happen separate from the source-code repository working
> copy.
> The repository working copy may be in a location that is not suitable for
> writing. It may also be a performance bottleneck to use the same location as
> the working repository for transient build-related material. There may also
> be storage-limitation considerations.
> Ideally, a build directory can be created anywhere and all build activities
> conduction in that location, separate from the source-code repository. One
> complication is any downloading of external sources and libraries, and how
> those can be included in any build of the source tree.
