Hi Karl!
I'm currently (as a consultant) converting ~2.5 Mio LOC C++/C from
vcproj/Makefiles/qmake to cmake.
Can you say something of the motivations for your client to do this?
I suspect that you are expected to keep most of their development
workflow and processes in order. Which parts a
Hi Pedro!
Windows and nmake don't offer any feasible way to parallelize, so we are
stuck there.
If you haven't already, you might want to take a lot at JOM, which is

Thank you Pedro. One of our develo
Hello Alex!

Hi Alan!
Our build is taking ages (almost a three hours on the fastest of our
servers) and it would be really painful if everybody needed to
rebuild everything for himself in the morning.
Aren't you distributing your source code with some tool that preserves

3 hours sounds quite excessively long.
Yepp, that's too long, really. Thanks for your suggestions on cut
Hello,

hodgepodge of handcrafted Makefiles, shell scripts and qmake projects.
I tried to convert a subset to CMake and it looks very promising so far.
One important part of our development workflow is this:
1) User 'nightly' bui
