v8 has separate Visual Studio project files for win32 builds, x64 builds and ARM (for mobiles, I suppose). Because project files cannot be conditionally excluded from a build (so far as I can tell), this means we also need a separate .sln file for each architecture, and furthermore we cannot use batch build to simultaneously build both win32 and x64.
I suggest that instead we have just a single v8.vcproj (and v8_base.vcproj, etc), which supports multiple builds and only includes architecture-specific files as appropriate. This would reduce the number of project files, and stop them becoming hopelessly out of sync (on the main trunk, v8_base.vcproj is works, but v8_base_x64.vcproj will not build because it has not been updated as files have been added and removed). Does this seem reasonable? (My apologies if this belongs on v8-dev, but that looked more like a Subversion log than a mailing list.) -- v8-users mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-users
