Dude, I'm not going to copy and paste everywhere in this thread alone where you sound like a entitled child, or we'll be here all day.

And since you are, then it is. Not one of those threads was about your particular request. And not all requests can be granted (which should be obvious).

Comments like "When did I say the world owed me anything? It probably does though". Make sense yourself; you ain't owed squat. No one here is.

Discussion's over. Devs prefer the current setup, everyone else either agrees or doesn't care. Can't be that important.

Edgar, why don't you take the time to add the feature yourself? Cmake really isn't that hard. I agree with you that its a useful thing to have which is why I made the patch for linux.

If I get some time I can attempt something in windows but I rarely ever use it so I don't know how likely that is. But really this discussion is sort of pointless, either accept that no one will do it or do it yourself.

@Kazzmir
To actually get it done, you would need a consolidated list of all the source files in the build, and a way to make sure that all of the addons are (going to be) built first. I'm not sure how to aggregate the different lists of source files together when they are probably separated into different modules. Also, I have pretty much zero experience with cmake, and their documentation is pretty sketchy as well, so I'm not very enthusiastic about learning it.

@23yrold3yrold
I was fine with the fact that there was no monolith build. Someone else brought it up, and all I did was defend my opinion that it would be useful. If you don't have anything useful to add, go crawl back under your bridge, troll.

You trolled by bringing up SFML and Trent called you on your bullshit. Cue you sounding butthurt for the rest of the thread. I get the sense there's a history there, and I'm tempted to go find out about it, but I'm not that desperate for entertainment.

Don't start nuthin', won't be nuthin. Troll.

Depending on how it's mentioned ... yes.

Because the thread isn't about if A4 or A5 are useful. Of course they're useful; why would you get any credit for pointing out the obvious? It's about whether A4 or A5 would be suitable for Paul whoknows, given his personal requirements.

Actually, I gotta admit something; I didn't even notice AMCerasoli prompted you to post until just now. And it was apparently about you crying. So I was right; there is a history and it is amusing! Otherwise, who would bring you up out of the blue, and why would you bite so fast after Trent's post?

Yeah, turns out I trolled you and I wasn't even trying. Does this mean I trolled myself? Damn I'm good. And I even got you to call me a gaywad.

FUCKIN EH

REVISION: Nuts it corrected. Oh well ... going to bed, post more lulz.

To summarize:

• Allegro 4 is not abandoned and never will be in the sense that anybody, at any time, can volunteer to work on it, and nobody will get in his way.

  
  

• Allegro 4 is abandoned in the sense that very few people will do that.

If you want to continue discussing monolothic builds, alternative libraries, and any other nonsense, then take it to the off-topic board.
