It is still a work in progress, but it seems to be -reasonably usable (to developers) and fast. - -It is designed from the ground up to work with cross-compilation, as well as -multiple build targets/configurations from the same source tree (using the O -variable). - -It is NOT intended to replace autotools for distribution maintainers -or end users who are satisfied with autotools. - -SYNOPSIS --------- - -# To build mpd in a directory "output" -./build.mk O=output defconfig -$EDITOR output/config.mk -./build.mk O=output - - -FEATURES --------- - -* Designed for cross-compilation from the ground up -* Designed to easily handle multiple build directories from the same source - tree. Just set the O variable when invoking make (see synopsis). -* Automatic dependency analysis (if using GCC) -* Highly configurable (no auto-detection of dependencies to get wrong) -* Simple, no archaic M4 macros or unreadable auto-generated shell or makefiles - just human-maintained GNU Make and POSIX shell. - - -config.mk ---------- - -This is the configuration file a user should edit if they wish to -enable/disable features or tune settings. Once created, this -will NOT be modified by the build system, so user settings will -always be preserved. - - -VARIABLES ---------- - -These are conventions, not hard and fast rules (as there's no good way to -enforce them :) -mixed-case or lower-case variables are used by bs internally. -ALL_CAPS variables are designed to be changed by users. - - -REQUIREMENTS ------------- - -GNU Make, POSIX shell + common UNIX tools (awk, sed, mv, rm, mkdir). -git (version control system) is only required if you wish to autodownload -external dependencies (flac, tremor, mad, etc...) for static linking. - - -BUGS ----- - -Modifications to config.mk will over-rebuild. - -Changes to CFLAGS/LDFLAGS from the command-line are not yet checked in -rebuilds. |
