Hi Oleg, What is the purpose of switching to cmake? Can the transition be done without adding another dependency to building for mingw-msys?
I guess my concern is that even if cmake is an improvement over make that the impact can still be negative on the community. For me the interesting platforms for chicken are: Linux (several generations in current use). Android (admittedly this is in my dreams :)) Windows mingw-msys When you are done can I expect that my builds for these platforms will be as easy as they are today? I missed the discussion of this on the chicken lists so my appologies if this has been hashed to death but in my opinion open source projects are very vunerable to pertubations and I really want to see chicken thriving, not just surviving. A change like this alienating even a single strong developer can hurt. Hopefully the developers are already on board with your vision in this. Matt -=- From my Android phone on T-Mobile.

I am happy to inform you that I have achieved some success converting Chicken build system from Makefiles to CMake. This initial work is a proof of concept and still very ugly and incomplete, but certainly will be improved. I've created a fork of Chicken on https://github.com/bazurbat/chicken-scheme/tree/cmake-build, so anyone interested can track progress and make requests there. If you have proposals or suggestions for the new build system, let's discuss. -- Regards, Oleg _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
