What's the idea of crating the subdir CMakefiles and the static libs? I was happy to get rid of them as they add an unnecessary linking step. Also, are you sure that linking a static lib into a dynamic one is OK? The same question holds for the other static libs added by other commits.The idea was that instead of lumping it all together in one file, we could split it up to make it easier to understand/maintain in the future. This is also the approach used by our current build setup and I hadn't heard anyone complaining about that so I just went ahead and replicated the same structure.
IMO, it was done because it was convenient and "easier" with the old build system. I don't think there's any better reason for it. The -Werror stuff also caused a split into a "clean" and a "non-clean" lib, which can be handled much better with the CMake mechanism (and which is near the top of my todo list). I'd really like to undo that change, because I don't see any advantage in doing it the "old" way. Ciao Joerg -- Joerg Mayer <jmayer () loplof de> We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
