CMake build system for SDL (www.cmake.org) | |
================================================================================ | |
SDL's build system was traditionally based on autotools. Over time, this | |
approach has suffered from several issues across the different supported | |
platforms. | |
To solve these problems, a new build system based on CMake is under development. | |
It works in parallel to the legacy system, so users can experiment with it | |
without complication. | |
While still experimental, the build system should be usable on the following | |
platforms: | |
* FreeBSD | |
* Linux | |
* VS.NET 2010 | |
* MinGW and Msys | |
* OS X with support for XCode | |
================================================================================ | |
Usage | |
================================================================================ | |
Assuming the source for SDL is located at ~/sdl | |
cd ~ | |
mkdir build | |
cd build | |
cmake ../sdl | |
This will build the static and dynamic versions of SDL in the ~/build directory. |
