This repository contains the source code for the kBuild project with the patches for the OS2 operating system.
kBuild is a makefile framework for writing simple makefiles for complex tasks. The original project home is http://trac.netlabs.org/kbuild/wiki. The original kBuild source code is imported into this repository as is (with a few modifications mentioned below) and gets periodically synchronized to pick up latest changes from upstream. The modifications applied when importing include:
-
Removed
/kBuild/bin
directory containing pre-built binaries for various platforms as we only build kBuild on OS/2 and re-generate all the binaries during the build process so it makes no sense to store them in a repo. As opposed to the original repository, this one is not intended as a means of installing kBuild -- we provide a set of RPM packages instead. -
Removed
/dist
directory containing installation files for platforms we don't maintain. -
Removed
/SlickEdit
directory containing irrelevant kBuild syntax highlighting for SlickEdit.
Note also that the original repository pulls an external repository
http://trac.netlabs.org/kstuff/ into /src/lib/kStuff
which we import as raw
source now but it will be redone as a git submodule once kStuff is on GitHub.
