BAWT

Difference between version 17 and 18 - Previous - Next
[http://www.bawt.tcl3d.org%|%BAWT%|%] is a Tcl based configurable framework for automatically building C/C++ based software libraries from source code. 

Its main usage is for the Windows operating system, where different build environments (ex. configure/make via MSYS/MinGW, nmake, CMake, Visual Studio Solutions) and compiler (MSYS/MinGW gcc, different Visual Studio versions) are needed to build these libraries.

My [mathemaTcl] package (or rather collection of packages) has a somewhat related goal, though it adds Linux and OSX to the mix, as well as Fortran libraries besides C libraries. However, the real focus is on mathematical and numerical applications. As such its tasks are probably much more limited and therefore easier to implement.
