Hi devs,
I am in the process of writing a build script for devs. With a script
like that, you might not find it difficult to switch between different
versions of prerequisites, deployment locations, etc. I am thinking of
incorporating things like checking for required files (e.g. specs), etc
with this script.
Thoughts please...
Danushka
Our build script for devs is the traditional
./bootstrap && ./configure <blah> && make
so the best place for improved build scripting is in configure.ac and
src/Makefile.am. There's plenty of room for improvement, I look forward to you
contributions. Shout if you need any pointers, the info files on autoconf and
automake are the best starting point I know of.
Cheers,
Alan.
