I want GEGL to keep the build-system interaction neccesary for novice and advanced users as low as possible, making the threshold to contribute what most developers contributing to GEGL will be contributing to.. (tests/operations). This is the reason for the wildcards. Some wildcard mechanisms have been removed in the past and increasing the number of files you need to touch/know about invariably leads to fewer contributions to those parts, both from others and me. I am against such changes at least in the common/ directory. It also makes keeping a local set of operations, not yet under version control, in sync with upstream harder. For the CL files - it might be better to move them adjecant to the .c files when they correspond to single ops; and have rules about how to deal with opname.c opname.cl opname.cl.h all co-existing in the same directory. /Øyvind Kolås _______________________________________________ gegl-developer-list mailing list List address: gegl-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gegl-developer-list
