Is there documented support for VPATH builds?
The core code certainly builds okay in VPATH mode, and I would agree
with Dimitri that pgxs builds should as well. But this is more of an
autoconf+make feature than ours, so I'm not sure why you'd expect us
to document it.
Extension does not support VPATH at 100% (well, pgxs.mk).
There is a minor hack for some REGRESS files but that's all.
Right. My impression is that pgxs.mk actively works against vpath builds.
I think at least DOCS, DATA and REGRESS needs some addition on pgxs.mk to help
extension author allows build out-of-tree (postgresql been built out or not).
I'll work on a patch for that.
OK, great.
cheers
