Re: Anyone for CMake?



From my own experience trying to have Libgda use CMake to compile,
CMake still lacks/badly supports some features which are available
using the autotools, such as:
* convenience libraries
* pkg-config support
For Libgda, this means I would have to reorganize much of my code,
which is a very complex task, not worth it considering that one can
cross compile for Windows if needed (or even natively compile using
mingw/msys). I also had some other troubles, notably the lack of
documentation, which made me stop trying to use it. Maybe I'll start
again in a future version of CMake.

However I understand the lack of support  for VisualX support as a
problem for potential contributors.
