Re: [trinity-users] [TDE-on-NixOS] Cmake will be the default in TDE, in a near future?

Yes, we would like to migrate everything over to CMake. We lost much of the manpower originally responsible for the CMake port a couple of years ago now, but the good news is most of the remaining work is fairly simple (but tedious). What needs to be done at this point is to go application by application and port the Automake build system over to CMake. Most of the old TDE-specific Automake macros now have (much better) CMake equivalents, so it's mostly a matter of using a module such as tdebase as an example and generating the appropriate ConfigureChecks.cmake (equivalent to the Autotools configure.ac file) and CMakeLists.txt (equivalent to the Autotools Makefile.in) files. There are people more knowledgeable than I am with regards to CMake on this list, so if you want to assist just let us know. I would suggest starting with a smaller application first and sending patches to the list for review, then we can determine where to go from there. Thanks! Tim
