A pointer would be appreciated.
Peter, The first question you should ask youself is: is this thing actually used somewhere.... git grep testhxx soltools/prj/build.lst:so soltools\testhxx nmake - all so_testhxx so_mkdep NULL soltools/prj/d.lst:..\%__SRC%\bin\testhxx* %_DEST%\bin\testhxx* soltools/testhxx/create.pl: $in =~ s!\S+/testhxx.cxx!-x c++ /proc/self/fd/0! soltools/testhxx/create.pl: $in =~ s!\S+/testhxx.cxx!\${my_tmp}! soltools/testhxx/create.pl: $in =~ s!\S+/testhxx.cxx!\${my_tmp}! soltools/testhxx/create.pl: print STDOUT 'echo \'no testhxx on this platform\'', "\n"; soltools/testhxx/makefile.mk:TARGET := testhxx soltools/testhxx/makefile.mk:CAPTURE_OUTPUT = > $(MISC)$/testhxx.output && $(TOUCH) $(SLO)$/testhxx.obj soltools/testhxx/makefile.mk:SLOFILES = $(SLO)$/testhxx.obj soltools/testhxx/makefile.mk:$(BIN)$/$(TARGET) .ERRREMOVE : $(MISC)$/testhxx.output create.pl soltools/testhxx/makefile.mk: $(PERL) -w create.pl < $(MISC)$/testhxx.output > $@ soltools/testhxx/makefile.mk:$(MISC)$/testhxx.output: $(SLO)$/testhxx.obj Apparently the answer is.. no. Not that soltools contain mostly stuff in support for the old build system. it is possible that some of theses tools may still be used/needed by gbuild... but it is quite possible that most will not. That may not be the best module to convert. if any of it remain necessary after the full gbuild conversion, it will be the last module to ever join tail_build since any dmake module left would depends on it.
