<BR>
I've already done a prototype .build that first builds a target consisting of the native dlls, then the main opensim build.<BR>
<BR>
Such a target can be very specific and hand-crafted; on vs we'd just make prebuild include a couple of non-generated vs projects (also hand-crafted and not necessarily c#) maybe in a run-on-the-side solution.<BR>
<BR>
That would be win-win for all environments, I'd say.<BR>

This could<BR>> become quite an exercise in forensic compilation if we don't sort it out<BR>> now.<BR>> <BR>> What I plan to do is try to acquire the source code versions that we believe<BR>> most closely match the DLL's we have in subversion, and get them all into<BR>> trunk/libraries. Then we can compile them and test them against the<BR>> codebase, and work through any issues until we have the ability to compile<BR>> and run opensim 100% from source code. I'm not advocating we force all<BR>> developers to deal with this; just a few of us core ppl to get it straight,<BR>> then we provide manna from heaven to the rest in the form of precompiled<BR>> binaries. Eventually, all the C# code should be easily incorporated into<BR>> nant/prebuild (right?). The native libs will always be a bit trickier, but<BR>> the same approach should work -- collect the code, keep it in<BR>> trunk/libraries, and provide a mechanism for casual users to get binaries<BR>> appropriate to their platform.<BR>> <BR>> -danx0r<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> -danx0r<BR>> <BR>> --- Tleiades Hax <tleiades@gmail.com> wrote:<BR>> <BR>> > ><BR>> > > I'm not sure that I understand the option here.
