Re: [PD-dev] Re: externals/build SConscript

The libraries should be deprecated where ever possible, instead we should use a common build system. That will save everyone a lot of time.

why?

The one in externals/build works well, no its not perfect, but its there and it works.

the problem is, it's only working well for a subset of externals. iirc, there is not a single flext external in there.

btw, i'm using scons as extension to the flext build system, which works pretty reliable since it's easy to extend it to non-standard cases. (searching for weird libraries etc) imo, someone should look into it and write a platform independent scons Builder then we wouldn't have this nasty discussion any more.
