Re: [Vala] A brand new build system



Hi:

I'm the author of autovala. Currently it is a command-line only tool, but I'm working on a gedit plugin that will integrate autovala inside, allowing for a much better workflow.

Anyway, about being it "much powerful", remember that nearly all is done automagically by autovala, and, usually, you don't need to manually edit the .avprj files. Just run "autovala update" and build your project. Autovala will search automatically for source files, resources and more.

Guys, thanks for replies.

Calvin, I don`t intend to create whole build from sctrach. I was thinking
in a kind of "frontend", easy to understand, with nice syntax, that
dispatch commands and scripts to autotools, make, cmake and all this
stabilished and reliable software. I know that doesn't need to reinvent the
wheel, but, just let it more soft... :)

When I started this thread, I don't knew autovala. I don't use it in deep,
but seems much powerful to me. I understood that it make a kind of
proprocessing, generating the make files.

My idea is similar, but I want to hide the complexicity of generated make
files, putting it in a build/ or /tmp/ folder, starting other tools to make
it happen. This way, existing Makefile's, ./configure's and others can be
used too, preserving the work projects, but adding more management, like a
public online package repository, bundling, deploying, and whatever...

What you think about it?
