Re: Compile issues

[Jackie Gleason]

I just drink the Koolaid when it comes to convention over
configuration so that is why I find it silly on a platform like OSX or
Android.

I also think it would be easier to integrate with Androids make system
(although I am still new to all this so I could be wrong) for the
average population. If we could do this with the existing Gnustep make
configuration (allow them to use ndk-duild) that would be great,
however, I am not taking on that challenge.

The other option is we just create a Android.mk and compile it
completely different for android this is the route I am taking.

This, however, is a good discussion and betters the community if we
can integrate Android.

FYI This is where I am (commented ones do not compile linking is not working)...
