Most people build their source in a separate subdirectory, with a tarball build:

That's what I thought. but why when I build it, does it put the .o and the .ol
files in the source?


tar zxvf resiprocate-0.9.0-XXXX.tgz
cd resiprocate
mkdir compile
cd compile
../configure (options)
make

In this case, all the object files will be in resiprocate/compile and NOT in your source dir.

Not in MY system it doesn't.... I don't have a 'compile' directory, so why would the build put all the .o and .ol files in my source directory. Could it be a fault in the build file? Like
perhaps it "forgot" to move the .o and .ol files out of there.

anyone care to comment? I have judged that very few people on this list are using this on the Mac.... perhaps this is a build bug worthy of attention to the "Build" team.

I'm using the Mac os-X 10.3


The older build system uses architecture based names for temporary / build files.

I'm using the 0.9.0 release.
