|
In this second meeting points over default Makefiles were discussed. Ninja can be used as an alternative for Makefiles.
|
|
|
|
## Discussions
|
|
|
|
- **What is the use of** `Makefile.deps` **and** `Makefile.process`
|
|
**files?**
|
|
- `Makefile.deps` consists of many used and unused snippets. These
|
|
snippets help setup the build and test environment for fossology.
|
|
Since there are many directories that are hardcoded, special care is
|
|
required while replacing this file.
|
|
- `Makefile.process` generates a master variable from list of
|
|
variables. It assists the script in `Makefile.conf` file. These
|
|
files together generate a list of variables that can be used
|
|
throughout the build process.
|
|
- The build can be made faster using **Ninja** instead of **Make**.
|
|
- Ninja supports parallel builds by default.
|
|
- Print the flags used once the CMake configuration is working. That
|
|
will help us debug the process.
|
|
|
|
## Conclusion and Further Plans
|
|
|
|
- Write a *CMakeLists.txt* for **lib**.
|
|
- Push the working branch and update the link either on wiki or blog.
