It's the way forward, especially for languages with modules. D and Chapel are at one extreme, Go's build mechanism are a mid-ground. I can see more new languages going the single step source to executable since it allows for global optimizations, especially of address space. It will be interesting to see what happens in C++ after C++17 as modules are forced into the language. -- 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 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
