Hi all, Currently flac has 4 build systems: autotools (configure.ac), CMake, Makefile.lite and Visual Studio files. I think this is too much and like some opinions on which to remove.
I propose to remove the Visual Studio files (a mention has already been put in the changelog and README of the 1.3.4 release that they will be removed) because that was already planned. CMake takes over the role of providing a build system for Visual Studio. As recent releases of Visual Studio actually feature integration of CMake, one could see CMake as being 'endorsed' by Microsoft. Visual Studio users will get a better maintained and configurable build system instead of the rigid files flac provides right now. I'd also like to remove the Makefile.lite build system. From a remark in the README it seems it was at some point created to provide an alternative or back-up for the autotools build system, but a much more flexible alternative is now available: CMake. I'd like to hear your thoughts on this matter. Kind regards, Martijn van Beurden _______________________________________________ flac-dev mailing list flac-dev@xiph.org http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/flac-dev
