Irrlicht Engine

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 ...

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 ...

Hi again,

here is my work, with a readme that include the 'known issues' (see attached archive).

It is working and tested on {debug, release} x {static, shared} x {gnu/linux makefiles, CodeBlocks linux/win32-mingw, Visual Studio 2005, Microsoft nmake makefiles}. Library and examples are done ...

Hi,

I'll give it a try and send you what I have on this post probably later this week.

- scons (but I've read it was dropped from a project in favor of cmake..)

because all three ...

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 ...
