So if you want to include debugging symbols, use buildx, and if you don't then use build. This is based on its use of obj/ vs objd/ for the object file directory.
>>77907791FINALLY.
Thank you. So what we get out of this is make tools and build systems' fundamental job is working out the order of dependencies and executing actions to turn inputs into outputs.
Thus, the Microsoft tool SUCKS in that regard. Or I'm using it wrong.
>>77907807It took me less than 10 minutes between
>>77906373 and
>>77906522 to work out that they hard coded the builds and don't have a real build system (as you would be used to if you're working on any perforce project). Is the piece of shit 20 years old? Yeah. But the most important thing is to be able to build things knowing you've build the most up to date dependency in the process.
E.g. if you change carddll and then compile freecell, you wouldn't expect it not to recompile carddll first. But that's exactly what it does, because they've somehow hardcoded the configuration for each source file list.

I'm an actual software engineer and this is a threat. They're trying to turn me off this stuff but it won't work don't worry.
Sadly though I've run out of my break time and have to get back to actual work. Will do something funny later tonight when I get the chance.
