Hi Hugues,

>From what I recall, the coordinate system definitions reside in this directory.  Are the located somewhere else now?

Thanks,

What is it?
Thanks

Hi UV,

There is a key difference between a build tree and an install tree that needs to be taken into consideration.  For a build tree, you may have to build four different configurations - 32 bit debug, 32 bit release, 64 bit debug, and 64 bit release.  For the install tree, you will likely only been installing either 32 bit release or 64 bit release.

The server and web extensions also need to be built into separate trees because IIS and Apache need virtual directories to work with and the ajax/fusion viewers need a specific directory layout to find everything they need.

I like the idea of having a common directory structure:

1.  Copying a bunch of web files to some directory IIS or Apache likes is a hassle.  I know Walt always used to give me trouble about the way the web extensions was laid out.  It would be better if we could just point IIS or Apache at an appropriately laid out directory.

2. Co-developing MapGuide and Fdo functionality is freaking annoying.  Build Fdo, build -c install Fdo, copy Fdo dlls and headers to where MapGuide wants them, then build MapGuide.  Yuck.   

Can anyone think of other requirements on a common build/install directory structure for MapGuide (server/web) and Fdo?

The following structure isn't right yet but it does introduce some symmetry between components and separates out the different build flavours.  The Web bit is definitely not right from a symmetry argument. All the separate Bin directories make this structure a no-go without setting path variables.  And the question what about Linux? comes to mind.

thanks, thats the way the decision can be made.

But first people have to agree what needs to be done. In the current 
situation there are little inconsistencies which make our life hard.
I am sure the core team has their systems set up long enough that they 
dont know about these things anymore.
I do because I struggled hard to get the build running in the first place.
Trying to get the build server to do this now is pointing out the exact 
details of where the problems are.
