Make was annoying and did not change for the last 15 years but GNU make is running under cygwin as well as under any *nix. What is the benefit for me as a user of simulavrxx in using CMake?Trying to use the files that came with simulavrxx gave me nothing but trouble. Replacing autotools with something less tricky than plutonium might be a good thing.
I understand all sides of the issue ... Software developers (especially embedded software developers) should be comfortable with using make. I hate autotools, however, they are ubiquitous in the free software world, and having yet-another system for accomplishing the same thing (e.g. CMake) does not sound like a "good thing." OTOH, the one who volunteers to do the work SHOULD get the majority vote :-) -- Michael N. Moran (h) 770 516 7918 5009 Old Field Ct.
