I'm working on converting soltools to gbuild but I've come across a
problem.
soltools/testhxx/makefile.mk echos the commandline to compile a
cxx file to a temporary file and then runs it through a perl script.
What I need is a way to get the command line used to compile a file with
out actually executing it.
With dmake this seems to be accomplished with
CAPTURE_COMMAND but I haven't been able to find equivalent funcionality in
gbuild. A pointer would be appreciated.
Peter,
The first question you should ask youself is: is this thing actually
used somewhere....
[...]
Apparently the answer is.. no.
testhxx was invented at the time we made the code warning free, and
started with cleaning up the headers. It allowed to compile just a
given header, with all the command line arguments of a normal compiler call.
That said, it has probably not been used lately, probably rotted, and if
we ever feel a need for it again, we could create a new one from scratch
in the context of the new build system. So, the old one can probably be
removed now.
