Buildtool is a portable build infrastructure that can be used in the
|
|
|
|
|
development of any kind of program. Basically, it simplifies the build
|
|
|
|
|
process of a program from user's point of view, by automatically
|
|
|
|
|
configuring the source code with specific details of the host system;
|
|
|
|
|
it also makes developer's work easier because all Makefile complexity
|
|
|
|
|
is hidden and behavior is homogenized. These are probably its main
|
|
|
|
|
features, but Buildtool can do much more!

Buildtool is completely free, licensed under the terms of the BSD
|
|
|
|
|
license. It can be thought of as the BSD replacement of GNU automake,
|
|
|
|
|
autoconf, and libtool.
