True enough, but I am only building the core of osg and the default plugins. None of the other components build as I don't configure them and I'm unlikely to ever use them. I'm not going to be using any of osgParticle/osgTerrain/osgWidget in the foreseeable future either (worse luck) If there are another bunch of core libs, eg. osgWidget I have to remember to disable them in cmake or they build as well. It's not too bad at the moment, but if we wind up with lots of 3rd party libs the cmake interface is a pain. But it also seems silly to have a core library which doesn't build by default, or you wonder why it's there. Unfortunately we 'doze uses have to build the debug and release builds so it all adds up. Perhaps the cmake could be split in 2, so there's one for the core (and a couple of examples) and another for the extras? That would work with visual studio projects but I don't know if that would work with linux build systems... That would be handy as people new to osg could get up and running faster and you've still got all the goodies to play with later. _______________________________________________ osg-users mailing list osg-users@lists.openscenegraph.org http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
