For work I had to build a library, targeting three versions of Visual Studio. And that wasn't for fun, believe me :) If anyone wants to build a tool that links with Irrlicht and they need to distribute binaries, they'll likely have this sort of requirements. But anyway, I won't fight over your build...

Ok, I also have a better understanding of your take on this. 1. I agree that a in-source build with multiple configs and one destination dir (the existing solution) has its advantages. It is simple, already-setup and easy for newcomers. And I won't beat your CodeBlocks virtual target magic (mine is ...

hey, 1. the code::blocks projects have all the files (albeit in a dir structure rather than custom groups), so you can search/open/build/run/exec . It will probably be necessary to edit a parameter or two (the working dir and maybe the LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Linux) in order to start the example binaries...

Hi, I'll give it a try and send you what I have on this post probably later this week. As for other good/promising systems, I would indicate the following: - cmake/lua - waf -boost::build v2 with python - scons (but I've read it was dropped from a project in favor of cmake..) because all three are '...

standardizing on CMake short-term ?

Hi there, I was thinking of using CMake for building Irrlicht (the default build seems to be debug on GNU/Linux), and just found out that Erwin Coumans has already done the setup for his small project GameKit. CMake is pretty convenient and one of the easiest solutions today, and I was wondering if ...
