2This directory contains Bakefile (see http://bakefile.sourceforge.net)
3files needed to generate native makefiles for wxWindows library, contrib and
4samples.
5
6Use the bakefile_gen utility to regenerate the makefiles. If you run it with
7no arguments, it will generate all makefiles that are not up to date.
8
9Use "bakefile_gen -c" to clean generated files.
10
11You can generate or clean only subset of files by specifying -f or -b flags
12when invoking bakefile_gen. For example, "bakefile_gen -fborland,watcom" will
13only regenerate Borland C++ and OpenWatcom makefiles. -b flag limits
14regeneration only to specified bakefiles. For example,
15"bakefile_gen -b wx.bkl" will only regenerate main library makefiles.
16"bakefile_gen -b '../../samples/html/*/*.bkl' will regenerate makefiles for
17all wxHTML samples. -b and -f can be combined.
18
19You can customize the process of generating makefiles by adding file
20Bakefiles.local.bkgen (same format as Bakefiles.bkgen) with further settings.
21For example, you may disable output for compilers you don't use:
22 <del-formats>msvc,msvc6prj</del-formats>
23
24Note: bakefile_gen creates file .bakefile_gen.state with dependencies
25information. This file can be safely deleted, but it contains valuable
26information that speed up regeneration process.

28Note: the following files are generated using bakefile_gen:
29 * build/msw/*
30 * contrib/build/* (except .bkl files)
31 * makefiles with same names as makefiles in above dirs, Makefile.in files
32 that contain "This makefile was generated by Bakefile" banner and
33 VC++ project files in samples, demos and utils directories (inc. contrib
34 ones)
35 * src/wxWindows.dsp
36 * {wxGTK,wxMotif,wxX11}.spec (only wxBase headers list)
37 * autoconf_inc.m4
38 * all Makefile.in files
