I've been doing some build tree maintenance in Proton and a couple of issues have come up:
1. Is anyone using/have a reason to want to keep proton-dump? It's a somewhat odd program that seems to have been a debugging tool left over from the very earliest days of proton. It uses the internals of the proton-c library so it can't be simply linked in with the qpid-proton library without exposing internal symbols. For the present I've just linked it directly with the few c files that provide the symbols it needs. 2. I'd like to move the minimum required CMake version to 2.8.7 - This will allow me to tidy up a certain amount of the build system and also provide a somewhat more featureful base version of CMake (currently we support 2.6 onwards) As far as I can tell: Ubuntu12.04LTS: CMake 2.8.7 (version on regular TravisCI build) RHEL6: CMake 2.8.12 Debian Wheezy (7): CMake 2.8.9 Fedora 22: CMake 3.4.1 Version of CMake on appveyor currently seems to be at least 3.3.2 So I don't think there should be a probelm for anyone with this change. I'll wait for 3 days and if I don't hear anything from anyone, I'll assume that no one wants to keep proton-dump and no one objects to upping the minimum supported version of CMake. Thanks Andrew
