I don't mean to squash discussion. I think the build system the wider ecosystem uses is important. But that can happen in another thread; this RFC is unrelated and has a much narrow scope and wider set of requirements. >From the thread I it seems we want a custom solution, in Rust, that plugs into something like Ninja. I think our dep management is simple enough that this can work very well. (In particular, we don't have the madness of header deps + each file being a compilation unit) _______________________________________________ Rust-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev
