Hi Bill,

We are going to require the developer to run a specific compiler for a
32 bit build and a different one for the 64 bit build.  That is the
preference for being able to set it in CMakeLists.txt, and just having
it work.  Each developer is responsible for releasing the code on a
frequent basis, so everything has to be locked down.  They also need to
be able to test their changes, before source check in, for both builds.

Requiring an environment variable is  an issue that would cause someone
to complain.  Making them run a build script for each platform would
also cause them to complain.  If any of this triggers a massive
recompilation of the source files, that is another reason for them to
complain.

I like Cmake, and I really hope we are able to deploy it in our group.
My worry is that people aren't logical, and issues like the ones I
mention may be showstoppers for them, even if the workaround requires
minimal extra effort.

Regards,

Juan
So, what is the current build system and how does it work?
