Also, don't overestimate what is reasonable to do with this Turing tar pit, as cmake language is primitive and untyped. Non-trivial scripts quickly get hard to understand and maintain, and there is little tooling to debug or refactor them later. Any general purpose scripting language wins hands down here when it doesn't have to manipulate with build targets directly. -- Regards, Konstantin _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
