We need
1. a post fetch (build) options. GLAS should be builded only
in release,
and in single file mode. It is a betterC library with extern C
interface.
I doubt that is going in, as that overrides what the user may
want to do.
Mir needs different project be builded in deferent modes.
For example GLAS requires
--build-mode=singleFile --compiler=ldmd2.
Other package may require to be builded with other modes and
other compiler. But a user program may use any compiler and
compilation mode. This is possible for libraries with extern(C)
interface.
2. ability to build C/C++ code, run makefiles.
Sure, preGenerateCommands/preBuildCommands.
This does not work for Mir GLAS. Mir GLAS should be builded as a
C library with extern D interface.
preGenerateCommands/preBuildCommands generates different binaries
for different compilation modes and different compilers which
would not work for Mir GLAS.
3. ability to compose libraries.
Umm what?
For example: two project that should be linked into a single
library.
4. ability to override a compiler for betterC libraries.
It should be transitive meaning if a dependency specifies it,
then all packages should have it.
What do you mean?
