[Axel asks why Link copies sources into the build dir...] Link is not intended for staging areas; it should only be used for build dirs. It always copies the source (and any includes) into the Linked dir. You want to use Install to create your staging area. Cons would like you to work like this: Source -------> Build --------> Export Link Install
Hi Gary, thanx, but...I use separate build dirs alot, and I am quite confused by the fact that cons puts my source files (though just a link) in my build dir. So, know that we worked out this is intended behaviour, why is it?
AxelPS: I'll be home for x-mas, so just in case: Merry x-mas all and happy new year
