That has been done ages ago: http://svn.php.net/viewvc/php/cmake/ Back then it didn't have any uptake because it was uncommon and people don't like to change. (and maybe some technical reasons where some hidden sauce in PHP's build system allows some magic) A key factor for PHP's build system (imo) back the was that PHP's incremental build was *a lot* faster (typical development cycle: touch a single file and type "make") than CMake (while CMake+make is more correct since it also checks touched headers) nowadays we have SSDs, which makes this a bit less of an issue, and CMake supports ninja, which eventually might be faster. johannes -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
