- A proper ./configure, so everything needs to be configured only once, not for every make.
- Usage of makedepend when available. This greatly reduces the time needed for generating the dependencies.
- A generator for all project files. There is a single file with sources, which is used to generate Makefiles and the project files for MSVC.
- Proper support for OSX universal binaries.
- Object files for non-MSVC compiles are also placed in separate directories, making is faster to switch between debug and release compiles and it does not touch the directory with the source files.
- Functionality to make a bundle of all needed files for for example a nightly or distribution of a binary with all needed GRFs and language files.
Note: as this merge moves almost all files, it is recommended to make a backup of your working copy before updating your working copy.
This project file adds a graphical IDE to OSX, including graphical debugging, which is a bit easier than gdb (Xcode uses gdb for debugging)
Since it uses the makefile to compile, it should (hopefully) work without updating the project file when the makefile is updated
Tobin did most of the work, but I altered paths and settings for custom executable so it should work out of the box for everybody
