I think you misunderstand my intention (and are bound to not answer my
question, it seems). All I need is a description of what is done by the
build system (ie what files are compiled into what and which files end up
where). Extracting this from autotools is almost impossible, so a short
description is pretty much all I'd need. In the ideal future, Clang has its
own linker, which would make the MinGW runtime the only thing needing Bash
for anything, which would be pretty lame. I'm not asking you to do any work,
just give a description of what goes where. That would be awesome.
Second, some irrelevant arguments pro Cmake:
1. It can glob for certain files, and I'm confident "maintaining" the Cmake
files will be painless (because once the general rules are set up, the
wildcard '*' will take care of new files.
2. Clang does not require a Bash shell, meaning that there is no reason to
use Bash (which translates to slow MSYS/Cygwin on Windows). This is the
exact reason I'd like to get this set up.
I hope I have made myself and my intentions a bit more clear.
