An alternative, but one that involves replacing one dependancy (Mingw)
with another (CMake). Admitedly its a smaller dependancy, but not a
good direction to go in.
I must be missing something... why would you want to do this?
The Mingw dependency would go away with the native Windows port anyway, in
exchange for a dependency on the MS tools.
The most aesthetic solution would be to build the capability
right into Cabal but I simply don't have the time to take on yet
another project like that right now.
That is by far the best option, Cabal will definately need this at
some point. It would be a shame if you go to extra work for something
that will be done eventually.
I presume you mean having Cabal generate the Makefile/nmake/VS project file.
What do you see as the benefit from doing this?
Cheers,
Simon
