I'm working on a free software (bsd license) project with others. We're searching for a system that check out our source code (svn) and build it also as test it (unit tests with Check / other tools). It should have a webbased interface and generate reports. I hope we don't have to write such a system from null by ourselves... ...
Any suggestions on how one could go about setting up a build system that would compile one or two libraries against a couple of different platforms/targets. The main project is in Visual Studio. For example, I have a library: nav.lib It compiles on Windows and Linux with a few tweaks. The executable that uses the library, win_nav...
I'm wondering how i can make a portable build system (step-by-step), i currently use cmake because it was easy to set up in the first place, with only one arch target, but now that i have to package the library I'm developing I'm wondering how is the best way to make it portable for arch I'm testing. I know I need a config.h to define t...
I'm doing some development right now using dsPICs and I'm not exactly in love with MPLAB. I'm actually using Visual Studio with a makefile project. Currently I'm using SCons, which seems to work fairly well, after finding a helpful guide to setting up to use an alternate compiler. Still, I can't help but wonder, is there a better build ...
I'm toying around with OCaml. The first thing I want to know how to do is build an OCaml project. Right now, I just want something stupidly simple since I'm just learning. Could anyone point me towards a build system along with a "hello world" type example for using that build system? ...
Should developers be limited to certain applications for development use? For most, the answer would be as long as the development team agrees it shouldn't matter. For a company that is audited for security certifications, is there a method that balances the risk of the company and the flexibility, performance of the developers? Scope...
I have a project which uses OMake for its build system, and I am trying to handle a rather tough corner case. I have some definition files and a tool which can take these definition files and create GraphViz files. There are two problems, though: Each definition file can produce multiple graphs, and the list of graphs it can produce ...
Hi, I recently began setting up my own library and projects using a cross platform build system (generates make files, visual studio solutions/projects etc on demand) and I have run into a problem that has likely been solved already. The issue that I have run into is this: When an application has a dependency that also has dependencies...
When defining macros that headers rely on, such as _FILE_OFFSET_BITS, FUSE_USE_VERSION, _GNU_SOURCE among others, where is the best place to put them? Some possibilities I've considered include At the top of the any source files that rely on definitions exposed by headers included in that file Immediately before the include for the re...
I am doing a research project that involves a pipeline of programs, each generating an output file that becomes the input for the next program. I would like to make it easy to repeat the series of commands that I used to create the desired output. It seems like make or any other build system would be a good fit for this task, but all the...
Dead simple question: what's the build system used by Stack Overflow? ...
