When I generate an MSVC project with CMake, the header files are in the project, dependencies seem to be taken into account correctly, wildcards are used to automatically add/remove files, .. is there an actual problem here? Brecht. On Sun, Jan 10, 2010 at 10:53 PM, Erwin Coumans

The stackoverflow answer seem to confirm there are some dependencies and performance issues with GLOB. I'm interested to hear what the 'official' recommendation is by the cmake developers. Cheers, Erwin 2010/1/11 José Ignacio jose.cyb...@gmail.com On Mon, Jan 11, 2010 at 1:17 PM, Erwin

From the CMake mailinglist: http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2009-July/030535.html The problem with globbing is that CMake has no way to determine that new source (or header) files were added to a directory, other than ALWAYS running when someone types 'make' (or the VS equivalent). This

it (cmake) may generate project files, but I don't use that It sounds a little bit selfish, there are many developers who want to use project files. and our scons setup could be setup to do the same thing as well. Can scons create decent MSVC and Xcode project files? Who maintains such

That's what I was trying to figure out, whether it's as good as scons or not. It sounds like it might be comparable, so I'm going to try it as soon as I get time. If it is, I'll be very happy, since for all it's ease of use and maintenance, scons really is super slow. Joe On Mon, Jan 11, 2010

Well, it's had a rough start and some of us are wary of using it exclusively without assurance it's not going to be a step backwards :) I also think the fact that it generates makefiles makes some of us initially nervous, since makefiles are usually synonymous with immensely painful and difficult

We can also reverse the question - we have a very nice and working SCons system. Why would you want to get rid of the nice system I created? I have not asked mentioned to get rid of scons, but asked to fix cmake, because cmake can create MSVC, XCode and other project files. scons cannot do
