> Explain your current build system and how is works. Tom,
I use mk, which is well described in Andrew Hume's paper 'Mk: A Successor to Make'. Its primary feature is that it combines adequate power with extreme simplicity of design. For example, there are no builtin rules. Its primary flaw is that it enforces a phase distinction: it cannot discover and account for new dependencies during a build. It also uses an inferior algorithm (relative to nmake) to determine when derived files are out of date. > It is quite easy to extend and its core engine is very powerful. I am willing to believe these claims. I am finding it difficult to understand, however. Perhaps I just need some serious experience.
