Dear Nek users,
we have an ongoing discussion about a new build system for Nek.
What do you think about the current build system?
How easy is it to compile Nek?
What can be improved / What's missing?
One major complain was that the current build system does not follow the standard procedure of configure; make; make install.
We may want to follow the standard more closely. One idea would be to have a nekconfigure.in file to specify the compiler, flags, etc. and you need to run nekconfigure to create a makefile for your environment. After that you can use the classical GNU make utility to compile the code.
Your feedback is welcome!
Cheers,
Stefan
