The *only* benefit I see from using generation system like cmake, or wxWidget bakefile, is for end users where the Boost release manager creates a bunch of makefiles, nmake files, vc project files, etc. and hence the user doesn't have to use cmake, or bakefile
This, on the other hand, CMake does not do. Users are required to install cmake to be able to build.
Really? That surprises me. Do the files generated by CMake encode specifics about the user's toolset locations and other things specific to the machine on which the builds are being performed? -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com Don't Miss BoostCon 2007! ==> http://www.boostcon.com
