I suppose you could check for the gnustep base version (there are macros for that) and only include the new code if gnustep-base >= 1.14. Maybe it's not worth the effort though. Requiring gnustep-base >= 1.14 seems reasonable. :-) > This would also break compatibility with at least libFoundation, Not sure why - the old code to use GNUSTEP_PATHLIST to create the GNUstep search path is still there ... so if it worked before, it should keep working ? ;-) Or maybe you mean that gnustep-make v2 + libFoundation wouldn't work - which is right, but it's because libFoundation has not been updated to work with gnustep-make v2. :-( > also an #if GNUSTEP_BASE_LIBRARY was missing around the method > standardSearchPathsForGNUstepPath, so that compilation will not break when > compiling against other foundations libraries.

It might be needed to keep libFoundation working for the time being. Actually, it might be worth checking if libFoundation works with gnustep-make v2 - and if not, to make it work. You mostly need a working implementation of NSPathUtilities. The current implementation based on GNUSTEP_PATHLIST makes no sense with gnustep-make v2, but it should be easy to write a very simple implementation where all paths are hardcoded in the library at configure time; you won't have the ability to relocate things at runtime by editing the GNUstep config file, but otherwise it would be pretty enough. I had a look but then found that I can't even regenerate libFoundation's configure script using autoconf 2.61 (recursion limit exceeded) so that needs fixing first. :-/ Thanks _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnustep mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnustep
