Yes, we agree on that too :-) That was the reason I have (at least) considered that --enable-client=gtk,sdl,xaw support. generate_packets.py currently produces files to source directory and not to builddir (bug, of course, but hard to fix without breaking something else). So it should run only once even when using several builddirs. ccache helps a lot when compiling identical parts of several builddirs. > First I thought that you have forgot something, but now I (hope) > understand it: all clients should have generated Makefiles already > (ie we already make autogen.sh/configure for each subdirectory.) > This is good for compile testing, so thank you. Yes, I just got the idea of using such Makefile on top of my builddirs when I read your previous mail. - ML _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
