Also, with autotools you'll depend on their version. With CMake, you'll set version number, and newer CMake versions will run in compatibility mode with that version. -- Regards, Konstantin --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
