[BRAINSTORMIG] name of the variable for passing command line options via make
Hi, One of the missing thing since we switch to OptionNG is a reliable ability to pass options via command line that would override make.conf and config file options. Here is an implementation that do work: http://people.freebsd.org/~bapt/OVERRIDE_BLA.diff Now OVERRIDE_SET/UNSET doesn't seems to be the best name :) http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=170180 Here are other proposition from me: LATE_SET/UNSET CMD_SET/UNSET Do you have better proposition? Do you like one of those proposition? end of the brainstorming: 1st August, the proposition that received the more votes will be chosen :) regards, Bapt pgpAdpNQUyDgt.pgp Description: PGP signature

As in: # cd /usr/ports/foo/bar # make SETOPT="THIS THAT" UNSETOPT="THEOTHER" install Since it is setting or unsetting options, and that expresses the user's wishes clearly and succinctly.

I agree, but silently thinking OH NO! this brings us back to the discussions from a view months ago... If I understand correct the LATE_(UN)SET parameter can be used inside the port after including bsd.port.options.mk (where I really miss it) and CMD_(UN)SET from the command line. I'm fine with the naming if we can get them in, and as long we do not force the users to use "OVERRIDE_SET/UNSET" monsters on the command line. -- Regards, olli ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Hmm, no, I've understood that they are simply two different proposals for the same features, i.e. command line overriding. I vote for WITH / WITHOUT. -- Alex Dupre ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
