> but you know what is even more impractical? Having a separate language for a build system. I disagree. For a very simple example it really makes life easier to not have to care about quoting filenames in build systems and just list a.c b.cpp etc., while you really want strings to be quoted in normal programming languages. Build systems that tried to be based on syntax of existing PLs (for instance Meson, QBS) are a real PITA for me when compared to CMake due to a lot of such affordances. |
