> No required options for generate.bat script
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: STDCXX-517
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-517
> Project: C++ Standard Library
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 4.2
> Environment: All Windows platforms
> Reporter: Eric Lemings
> Assignee: Farid Zaripov
> Fix For: 4.1.2
>
>
> The generate.bat script currently requires two options: /BUILDDIR and
> /CONFIG. Unless there's a valid reason NOT to do so, the generate.bat script
> should preset or determine the following values for these options when the
> user does not specify their own value. /BUILDDIR should default to the
> source directory; that is, the same directory containing the generate.bat
> script. For the /CONFIG option, the script should probe the build
> environment for all possible/supported Windows compilers currently installed
> and then sanity check each one that is found. If it finds no sane compilers,
> the script should probably issue a warning and just exit. If only one
> compiler is found, configure all distribution files to build with that
> compiler. If more than one compiler is found, set the target compiler to the
> first one found in predefined order of preference. (This order could be for
> instance, MSVC 8, 7, ..., Intel C++ 10, 9, 8, etc, Cygwin GCC, Mingw,
> Borland, etc.)
