Description Pavel Buzek 2002-05-10 10:54:48 UTC
Create design spec. for configurations and evaluate possible impact on the settings 
infrastructure. This needs to be done soon to ensure that it will be possible to extend the 
settings infrastructure in a compatible way to support configurations or to include the 
configurations in the contract (api, format of project file, ..)
Comment 1 Pavel Buzek 2002-05-15 16:02:26 UTC
Dirk's comment: Finalize the relationship between targets and configurations.  Are configurations the 
only way to change settings for different targets?
Comment 2 David Konecny 2002-06-20 15:57:17 UTC
Two use cases which should be supported (probably) by configurations:

1.) user has project and want to build it against different 
versions of the same library for different platforms, eg. solaris6.lib 
for Solaris 6 platform, solaris7.lib, solaris8.lib, solaris9.lib, etc. 
Should different configurations be used for this project and how? (is 
it something similar to java platform?)

2.) build dependency is defined as [project, configuration, target]. 
What to do if project referenced by build dependency is in different 
configuration when the build is running? Should the project 
configurations be switched during the build? Other use case is that 
user want to build project in all configurations. How it will work?
Comment 3 Pavel Buzek 2002-07-26 13:20:37 UTC
not completed for M2, reassigning to M3, also reassigning to Vita
Comment 4 Pavel Buzek 2002-07-30 13:20:29 UTC
Must-have features for milestone3, have impact on APIs (at least potential).
Comment 5 Pavel Buzek 2002-08-07 11:50:53 UTC
reassinging to Tor
Comment 6 Torbjorn Norbye 2002-08-29 00:52:08 UTC
I think it's done now.
Comment 7 Pavel Buzek 2003-07-02 09:55:11 UTC
done, closing
