BSDBuild
is a simple, self-contained and portable
build system derived from the traditional 4.4BSD share/mk files.
BSDBuild uses BSD-style makefiles
(example),
but without BSD make extensions (it uses standard Bourne script fragments
instead), so the build system is portable to most operating systems
and make flavors.
You never need to "regenerate" your makefiles when using BSDBuild, they
are edited directly.
This is one major advantage of BSDBuild over systems which use generated
makefiles: BSDBuild is implemented as a library.
BSDBuild can generate Bourne-type configure scripts. The base
distribution currently includes about 80
built-in tests
for detecting and testing the compatibility of various software, and
writing new tests is easy.
Additionally, if the
premake
utility is installed on the host system, BSDBuild can automatically generate
the files required for compiling "project files" for various IDEs, such as
CodeBlocks and
Visual Studio.
