Hi,
The docs state that you can do a "make update" to update all top-level
and
embedded projects from Subversion.
This does not appear to work with Ninja. Ninja just reports the following
error:
ninja: ERROR: unknown target 'update'
FYI. Perhaps somebody is already looking into integrating Ninja better
intp the build process. Or, perhaps I am just a too early adopter of Ninja
because CMake + Ninja is still beta.

I also don't have any real desire to support it as part of the CMake build system, I think it was always a flawed idea to implement version control commands as part of a build system. For example, I never, *ever* to in-tree builds, and a usually have many different builds associated with a single source repository. This makes the semantics of 'make update' quite confusing. I suggest writing the 4 line shell script (or the Windows analog to a 4-line shell script) that updates your tree. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

That's just what I did. And that's what I'm including in the Windows doc too.

I have only one source tree and any number of build trees; "make update" in each build tree updates the source tree. It's true that after the build (make happiness) finishes in one build dir, there are always new files to be pulled down when doing "make happiness" in the other build dir :) Csaba -- GCS a+ e++ d- C++ ULS$ L+$ !E- W++ P+++$ w++$ tv+ b++ DI D++ 5++ The Tao of math: The numbers you can count are not the real numbers.
