Harry Li's Forum Nokia Blog - Build Symbian C++ project with GNU make/autoconf

Some advice required while porting....

2008-11-17T10:06:18Z

Hi harry,
I am currently working on porting clucene-open source search engine into symbian using open c. I have started using symbian recently. I am having some problems in the build process.

Clucene uses cmake to build the system. How can we simulate this in symbian. I also like to chat with you regarding this... is this possible...

What Open C has really been missing...

I believe that the ability to use standard build systems such as make/autoconf has been one of the big missing pieces in the whole "PIPS" and "Open C" framework - when it comes to portability, having the runtime libraries available is only one half of the equation, since the "build descriptions" (makefiles etc.) are often as much part of the source code to be "ported" as the core logic itself.

Is this patch something that would be applicable to other projects using autoconf as well?
