Right. I'm currently developing an better solution:
I've called it the "unitool" project. Its goal: provide an uniform,
platform independent abstraction for the toolchain commands.
This way the platform dependent stuff is (nearly completely) moved
away from the application to the toolchain, and the toolchain is
- from the application's view - just one command with strictly
defined, self explaining parameters.
For example compiling an .c source to .o looks like:
unitool --compile \
input foo.c \
output foo.o \
define-symbol "FURUNKEL=1"
Or linking an library is like:
unitool --link-library \
library-name foo \
input foo.o \
input knollo.o
link-dynamic expat
Unitool also provides an libtool-like frontend (incl. loading/storing
libtool files) files and is of course fully sysroot-capable.
I'm already using it as drop-in-replacement for libtool to get
libtool'ed packages properly built in an sysroot'ed environment.
