Hi, the windows builds use MSBuild (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/wea2sca5%28v=vs.90%29.aspx) for the Visual Studio builds. It's a command-line tool and fairly painless to automate, especially when there is a Jenkins plugin available for it. > I have been thinking about changing the way jzmq (the 0MQ Java binding) is > built, so it uses "ant" on every platform and we simply get rid of the MSVC > project files; this is why I am trying to gather information before making a > decision. I would imagine that even when using Ant you would still need to have the project files in order to build with MSVC. MinGW32 is a lot easier because you can just reuse existing autoconf stuff. -- Mikko Koppanen _______________________________________________ zeromq-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev
