Because:
- bindings are not fully automatic, and they are broken most of the time
- unit tests/samples can be written in C on top of graw
- tracing/retracing is more useful at API levels with stable ABIs such as
GL, producing traces that cover more layers of the driver stack and and
can be used for regression testing
platform.system in SCons on Cygwin includes the OS version number.
Windows XP - CYGWIN_NT-5.1
Windows Vista - CYGWIN_NT-6.0
Windows 7 - CYGWIN_NT-6.1
Reduce all Cygwin platform variants to just 'cygwin' so anything
downstream can simply use 'cygwin' instead of the different full
platform names.
Certain mingw32 cross compilers (e.g. RedHat's) defaults to use DLL gcc
runtime.
Given the main deliverable from this project are self-contained drivers,
which are loaded by any application, this dependency can cause havoc.
Use scons target and dependency system instead of ad-hoc options.
Now is simply a matter of naming what to build. For example:
scons libgl-xlib
scons libgl-gdi
scons graw-progs
scons llvmpipe
and so on. And there is also the possibility of scepcified subdirs, e.g.
scons src/gallium/drivers
If nothing is specified then everything will be build.
There might be some rough corners over the next days. Please bare with me.
The Mac OS X SCons build failed on 32-bit CPUs starting with commit
2f6d47a7c8 during linking of graw-null.
The build succeeds though on a 64-bit CPU. See FDO bug 29117.
This was the compiler error.

The patch adds -fno-common to all Mac OS X builds to work around this issue.
Now that draw depends on llvm it is very difficult to correctly handle
broken llvm installations. Either the user requests LLVM and it needs to
supply a working installation. Or it doesn't, and it gets no LLVM
accelerate pipe drivers.
This serves several purposes:
- disable caching in situations were is it useless or undesired
- share caches among all trees
- simplify purging the cache (when it's a single location)
- move the cache out of the tree, since that slows downs IDEs considerably
To retain previous behavior just define do
export SCONS_CACHE_DIR=$PWD/build/cache
before invoking scons.
