cm Compilation Manager Description

cm Compilation Manager is a new tool for build automation and compilation management. cm Compilation Manager is a new tool for build automation and compilation management. cm Compilation Manager addresses a number of shortcomings I see in make.Here are some key features of "cm Compilation Manager":· A clean syntax based on a context-free language description · Whitespace insensitivity · Distinct macros and variables · Separate procedure and production namespaces · Many native programming constructs such as foreach loops for easy iteration, and more powerful tools such as anonymous functions with static scoping. · Built-in support for recursive directory handling without additional invocations of 'cm'. · An intelligent, automatic configuration file generator · Pre-generated functions for handling common build tasks in a platform-independent manner · Support for multiple build configurations and multi-pass builds over complicated directory hierarchiesInstallation instructions:Download cm, classib, and gc. Install the garbage collector per the included instructions. (Basically ./configure; make; sudo make install.) When running configure, you will need to pass it the parameters: --prefix=/usr/lib --with-threads=posix. Unzip classlib (tar vzxf classlib.tar.gz). Configure classlib's Makefile with any paths you need to modify. Build and install classlib with make && sudo make install. Unzip cm (tar vzxf cm.tar.gz). Build and install cm with make && sudo make install. Configure cm by executing: cd /usr/local/etc && sudo cminit To verify your cm installation, you can rebuild it with the included Cmrules files by typing cm @clean && cm -m opt in the same directory you built cm in with make.What's New in This Release:· The license was changed to the GPL.· This release includes a dynamic module/plugin system and two initial plugin modules.· It supports non-root installation, additional command line options, and caches parsed files for quick retrieval during multi-pass builds.· Several bugfixes are also included.
