Using this as a submodule or subtree +named `waflib` in a project allows waf to be used without including binary +encoded data in the waf script. This gets along with revision control and +distributions better, among other advantages, without losing +self-containedness. -With Suil, a host written in one supported toolkit can embed a plugin UI -written in a different supported toolkit. Suil insulates hosts from toolkit -libraries used by plugin UIs. For example, a Gtk host can embed a Qt UI -without linking against Qt at compile time. +To use this in a project, add this repository as a directory named `waflib` in +the top level of the project, and link or copy `waf` to the top level. - -- David Robillard <d@drobilla.net> +Two waf extras are also included: `autowaf.py` and `lv2.py`. + +The `autowaf.py` module is a kitchen sink of Python utilities for building +consistent packages, and can be imported in a wcript as +`waflib.extras.autowaf`. +The `lv2.py` extra defines options for LV2 plugin installation paths. It can +be used by calling `opt.load('lv2')` and `conf.load('lv2')` in the appropriate +locations in a wscript. + + -- David Robillard <d@drobilla.net> |
