I've recently changed over from using boost-build ( http://www.boost.org/build/) to cmake.
Boost build builds in-source. I've become quite used to building and searching etc from the source root ~/src $ b2 module ~/src $ git grep foo This work flow has been broken because I'm not using out of source builds ~/src/build $ make module ~/src/build $ git grep... dang it! <ctrl-c> ~/src/build $ cd .. ~/src $ git grep foo ~/src $ make modu... dang it! <ctrl-c> ~/src $ cd build ~/src/build $ make module I can't be the only one who wants to have the benefit of out of source builds and be able to build from in-source. I imagine it would be relatively simple to create a makefile which navigates to a known build directory (eg: build or debug or...), executes make there, and then changes directory back to where it was called from. Before I do just this, I thought it better to try leverage the open source community - hence asking the question. Does anyone have a script or makefile which does just this? TIA Steve
