Igor Sapego commented on IGNITE-13078:
--------------------------------------
[~ivandasch] yes, for windows static linking of boost libraries is used usually
as it is just much more easy. As for {{Boost_USE_MULTITHREADED}} – it is used
just to make sure that the right variant of libraries is used (non-mt libraries
often do not present in boost binaries by default). If it's ON by default, I
believe we can remove those lines.
Support of WiX is a good thing, maybe should implement it in future.

> Currently, it is hard to build Ignite.C++. Different build processes for
> windows and Linux, lack of building support on Mac OS X (a quite popular OS
> among developers), absolutely not IDE support, except windows and only Visual
> Studio is supported.
> I’d suggest migrating to the CMake build system. It is very popular among
> open source projects, and in The Apache Software Foundation too. Notable
> users: Apache Mesos, Apache Zookeeper (C client offers CMake as an
> alternative to autoconf and the only option on Windows), Apache Kafka
> (librdkafka - C/C++ client), Apache Thrift. Popular column-oriented database
> ClickHouse also uses CMake.
> CMake is widely supported in many IDE’s on various platforms, notably Visual
> Studio, CLion, Xcode, QtCreator, KDevelop.
