Re: Application specific include and library directories

[Rick Riolo]

Just fyi, I approached this problem a little differently:

1) I get the includes in by this in my application Makefile:

include $(SWARMHOME)/Makefile.appl
# this next line MUST be after the include above!
OTHERINCDIRS+=-I$(EXPTOOLSPATH)

2) And I get the application libs by explicitly giving the path
   to them:

APPLIBS=-lspace $(EXPTOOLSPATH)/libUM-ExpTools-4.a

I think your approach is a bit nicer (assuming it or some
version of it gets back into the swarm distribution).

   Swarm-Support is for discussion of the technical details of the day
   to day usage of Swarm.  For list administration needs (esp.
   [un]subscribing), please send a message to <address@hidden>
