You *must* be joking, right ? Usually it involves digging through a messy config.log, where you sometimes can't really find the reason (just one of those mysterious test compiles failed) and then have to decrypt an enormously complex configure script that will give you nightmares for years.
I second that. Autoconf is the worse building method I have ever seen. And I've already seen some pretty scary things, like the SymbianOS build method with hundreds of perl scripts that call batch files, which create makefiles, which call more perl scripts to create more batch scripts, and so on recursively. -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
