1.1.4 A Build System
|
| 70 |
</H2>
|
| 71 |
The build system can be used to build libraries, plug-in modules or
|
| 72 |
binaries. The configuration documents within the project area
|
| 73 |
describe the actions to be taken during the build process. These
|
| 74 |
actions can be global, or specific to parts of the source directory
|
| 75 |
tree structure. (e.g. everything in a directory <TT>libsrc</TT> could
|
| 76 |
be automatically compiled into a library or every binary in a
|
| 77 |
directory called <TT>test</TT> could be automatically linked with a
|
| 78 |
test utilities library).
|
| 79 |
<A NAME="276"></A>
|
| 80 |
Classes of build objects can be defined: for example, a library class
|
| 81 |
can have types such as <EM>debug</EM>, <EM>archive</EM>, <EM>shared</EM>, <EM> shared debug</EM>, etc. Default types can be assigned to a
|
| 82 |
class/directory structure but can be easily overriden with options
|
| 83 |
from the command line. The environment can be easily tuned for
|
| 84 |
special cases by simply modifying the general rules. The dependencies
|
| 85 |
are specified in an abstract manner. Extra external products to be
|
| 86 |
included during linking can be referred to by name with <SMALL>SCRAM</SMALL> taking
|
| 87 |
care of the system specifics.
|
| 88 |
<A NAME="281"></A>
|
| 89 |
Module interfaces can be defined for large software modules to define
|
| 90 |
dependencies etc. Other modules can then simply load the interface to
|
| 91 |
use the module. The module approach is compatible with code
|
| 92 |
repositories managed using CVS.
