These changes are ok...Except that you now re-enabled physics by default :-( IMO this should not be the case. Physics is not a requirement for e17 and to my knowledge will not be one for e18 either. As it is not a hard-dep, it really should be optional. By turning on physics by default, you are now (sort of) requiring that anyone who downloads and tries to build Efl will have to have Bullet installed...even tho the physics stuff is not actually required. The reason I say that is because the average user will not know how to disable it. A better approach is to have it disabled by default and those more advanced users can pass an enable option is they want to play/experiment with it. I am sure some people would have tossed a fit if I had set the wayland optkons to be enabled by default (thus requiring average users to install the wayland libraries) even tho they are not Actually required. So I would love to hear the reasoning behind this option being enabled by default... dh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master HTML5, CSS3, ASP.NET, MVC, AJAX, Knockout.js, Web API and much more.
