Re: [paho-dev] Cross-compilation of Eclipse Paho

[Rainer Poisel <rainer.poisel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ian and Frank,

thank's for having a look at my commit!

To me having different names for the output directory for the
different target platforms is quite important because I am compiling
programs for a few different platforms every day.

However, if you want we could remove the "unique name per target
platform" change for the output directory in a new patchset and
configure CDT to rename the build directory to a unique name in a
post-build step, aside of the things that happen in the Makefile. That
way, using Eclipse it is possible to have different output
directories, but by using the Makefile only, it is always the same. I
guess adapting your tests, CI, etc. to support different platforms
could be quite an effort.

We could think of having e. g. unit-tests for the different platforms
in one of the next releases.

Kind regards,
  Rainer
