Hans Dockter and I were chatting at Groovy & Grails eXchange 2012 yesterday, in particular about the coming C and C++ support in Gradle. It seems right for there to be a challenge SCons vs Gradle building C++ code.
Obviously SCons wins in the LaTeX, Fortran, D, etc. arena since Gradle has no capability there. Gradle clearly wins in the Java, Groovy, Scala, Kotlin, Ceylon space as SCons Java support is just, well let's be honest, not up to it – due to conflicts between the way Java is built and the SCons internal model which is C oriented. So the question is what is the most suitable challenge that we can arrange for say late 2013? (So that we can give results at Groovy & Grails eXchange 2013.) -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:[email protected] 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: [email protected] London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
