It seems I am not the only one out here using this system (see other tailbited userlibs), maybe because PB should include better SDK tools.freak wrote:I don't think it is a good idea to invent your own system just out of lazyness.
Maybe some ready-to-compile-with-tailbite example would be nice ?freak wrote:You can easily add stuff like the _UNICODE postfix with a macro, and compile the same code multiple times with the different flags. (its what we do with the PB libraries as well.)
I do not encourage anybody, but maybe if others use the same system it's because of the poverty of the SDK tools (just my opinion).freak wrote:The problem I see is that by adding it to jaPBE, you are encouraging others to do the same with their libraries, instead of using the proposed way. (which is much better for the users of the libraries, as everything is in one file, no subsystems etc to worry about.)
And it's totally optional in jaPBe, nobody has to use it. If the 'special' subsystems don't exist, jaPBe does nothing.
Because I am not the tailbite guru, I do not fully understand how it works.freak wrote:Why not simply edit your custom tailbite to handle this, instead of forcing your users to use your own system ?
But maybe I will have a closer look.
