Version: | MapServer 6.4 |
Our current autoconf + Makefile setup has several limitations:
Switch to cmake (http://www.cmake.org) to replace our autoconf + Makefile.in setup. Cmake is aimed at building and installing c/c++ projects in a cross-platform way.
Mapscript building will be streamlined with the main build process, and usually requires the presence of SWIG.
$ cd mapserver
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
# fix dependency problems
$ make
