In this session, John Graham-Cumming and John Ousterhout continue their discussion of 12 field-tested tips for optimizing Makefiles. “Recipe” 7 will cover rebuilding when commands change; next, Recipe 8 will cover making nested includes location independent; and finally, Recipe 9 describes manipulating GNU Make lists.
Have you resolved to conquer your company's build and release issues in 2006? Have you vowed to get down to the root cause of build failures that result in poor quality, late releases, and finger pointing between the CM and development teams?
If your builds are not as fast or as reliable as you would like them to be, this is one presentation you will not want to miss.
