Hi all, I would like to have an IRC meeting about the build system on Windows.
Although I like buildtool, it cannot do parallel builds, so I am happy to change (back) to something else. And unify it with Linux if possible... I am trying cmake now, but it does not link without errors yet. It is not very encouraging to see the cmake build process get stuck on some intermediate step for a long while, seemingly checking something to find out it does not need to rebuild it. "btool" does this much much quicker...
In any case, I'd like to discuss the options. Who's in?
I'm in.
I managed to get an old revision of Inkscape to compile with Waf. Since then I've been working with this build system on other projects, and would do a few things more elegantly. Despite some limitations, Waf looks like a good choice, and is definitely a lot easier to use than CMake. I can share my experiences if people are interested.
Regards, Krzysztof
