-- configure.in sed s,CODEGEN,XMLPP, oder so
- remove support for LIBT2N_EXPORT_GROUP(group) (this will simplify the generator a lot)
- add option similar to gccs -MD (at the moment it is a fixed set of files generated and
- they are handled in the makefile)
+ they are handled in the makefile snippet [codegen.make])
open questions:
- should projects using the codegen depend on installed version of ... or ship their own version?
- * codegen binary
- * Makefile snippet
- * codegen-stubhead.hxx
+- get rid of codegen-stubhead.hxx or include a "copy" in each project?
+ first we said yes but now i say no because the lib depends on the libt2n headers anyway
+- makefile snippet must work for builds outside of libt2n
+ => some variables must be set by configure
+ the variables which must be set:
+ LIBT2N_CODEGEN="\$(top_builddir)/codegen/libt2n-codegen"
+ LIBT2N_CLIENT_PCTEMPLATE="\$(top_srcdir)/codegen/clientlib.pc.in"
+ LIBT2N_CODEGEN_MAKESNIPPET="include \$(top_srcdir)/codegen/codegen.make"
+
+ we store the variables in the .pc file of libt2n
+ maybe wrap the calls to pkg-config in a m4 macro
+ (=> projects using libt2n-codegen need only one line in configure.in)
+
+- it would really be much nicer if the client lib includes would not depend upon boost serialization
+ i thought a solution would be to provide this optionally by wrapping the corresponding includes in a #ifdef
+ but this does not work since command.hxx is included which depends on boost serialization headers anyway
+ => we do not provide this for now
