It just seems like extra work maintaining 3 build systems: an autotools script, a VS project, and an Xcode project. The latter two only work on their respective platforms, and can't be maintained by developers on other platforms. And maybe even multiple versions of VS and Xcode projects would be needed. With CMake, you just maintain one set of CMake files, and then it can generate a makefile, a VS project, or an Xcode project. Yes, it means people would need CMake. But they provide source and binaries, and commandline and GUI tools. It is a downside, but I think the upsides outweigh it. >Homebrew [1] is a very nice tools for installing external tools on Mac OS X. >$ brew install libtool On Mac at least, that's now 3 dependencies: - install Xcode - install homebrew - 'brew install' libtool vs - install Xcode - install CMake Cheers, -- ____________________________________________________________ Sean McBride, B.
