Which directories do you have on mind? I only see a single csproj file here
https://github.com/ironruby/ironruby/tree/8acfd2f7e6c6a7e5484a8141c84065ec269aab62/Languages/Ruby/Ruby There are two here: https://github.com/ironruby/ironruby/tree/8acfd2f7e6c6a7e5484a8141c84065ec269aab62/Languages/Ruby/Console one set up to build 32bit only exe and the other with AnyPlatform (64bit on 64bit machines). If you see *.build.csproj files somewhere let me know. Those were part of an internal Microsoft infrastructure and should have been deleted, but maybe I missed some.

I completely agree with that, though I'm interested why there are 3 sets of all csproj in every project directory? As far Generating .csproj files is not the right way to go. The project files are and should be the primary metadata storage for the build system. If you work in VS and add a new file VS will add it into csproj. If you would like to build some packages (like rpms) you can write a .proj file that does that. Like we do for building .msis (see Msi\Installer.proj). If there is something msbuild/xbuild doesn't support you can write a custom task that does that. If there is some bug in xbuild that prevents you to do what you need the bug needs to be fixed in xbuild. Other than supporting packages, what's exactly is the scenario that doesn't work today that you want to support? I don't understand what do you mean by "Allows multiple (as many as you want) out of tree builds ...". Can you be more specific?

That would need to be implemented, but has already been proven possible by cmakes other VS proj support. For this project I don't believe that maintaining cmake will be all that difficult. it supports wildcards (Dir/*.cs) when selecting which files to build which means that in most cases no changes will need to be made. There is an exception to this which im planning on raising in a separate thread. Currently that work I have done with cmake has encountered a large number of "abandoned" files within the repo. It seems these classes have been migrated into System.* but only removed from the proj file. This is really really messy. > Is cmake using xbuild to buil the dlls or does it all the file linking > by itself? Nope it calls the compiler directly. Sadly I think it would be very difficult to maintain xbuild to do what I want it to do. Ultimately we need to get the Runtime/ directory out of the tree (or at least make linking against it optional). There are also other benefits. * It also makes pkg-config support very easy. * Allows multiple (as many as you want) out of tree builds so that you can for example run tests on standard debug build as well as a silverlight build simultaneously. You also don't have to be constantly switch configs. you can easy target multiple versions of mono/.NET etc etc etc. * supports creating of debs and rpms directly. > > On Wed, Nov 3, 2010 at 11:54 AM, Alistair Bush > <ali_b...@gentoo.org<mailto:ali_b...@gentoo.org>> wrote: > > I have started playing around with cmake to see whether it could help out > > iron* and dlr.
