I try to avoid static libs because this increases link time on any platform I know, what sucks. I have another idea: what if I move my cmakelists.txt out of the dir and you will use svn:externals and copy of the cmakelists.txt file with just changed library name? Then I also propose to remove the install( FILES ***.h ... ) section. We'd avoid conflicts this way I guess. > >> Two copies won't be needed > > svn:externals is not a copy.

Much like a symlink. sure but I mean copies of installed libs - that would be a conflict, two libs with the same name and set of headers > >> once we move the code to the outside of >> kolf and koffice (but where?). > > The obvious places would be kdelibs, or kdesupport if the library becomes Qt- > only.

It is already enough to use it on stripped down installations and on the mobile. So yes, I wish we had the lib in kdesupport. -- regards / pozdrawiam, Jaroslaw Staniek Kexi & KOffice (http://www.kexi-project.org, http://www.koffice.org) KDE Libraries for MS Windows (http://windows.kde.org) http://www.linkedin.com/in/jstaniek _______________________________________________ Kexi mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kexi
