Thanks for pointing that out. I will get it fixed.

Right now there is only targetdir (and implibdir, yes, but that only
applies to DLL projects).

No, you have to specify them. The defaults supplied in 3.x were handy
but had a tendency to cause side-effects for new users. After
wrestling with it a while, I made the decision to strip out all of the
"magic" settings in favor of explicit initialization.

At some point, I would like to introduce the idea of project (and
solution) templates to provide base settings. That's farther down the
road.

Hope that helps, feel free to ping me with more questions.

Noted. Out of curiosity, what is it you need to do? The prelink and
postbuild commands are conditional, would either of those work for
you?

No, unfortunately not. The biggest thing I'd be using it for is source
preprocessing. Stuff like running a header parser that generates
bindings for a scripting language (something like SWIG), running
lex/yacc-type tools, etc.

+1 support for what Scott is describing.

I get the idea, and I suppose its time. But I need the XCode support
first, so I've put it down for a 4.2 release (unless someone wants to
take a crack at it before then).

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Thanks, fixed!

I turned of the FatalWarnings flag in the Premake script; regenerate
your project files and you should be able to build around the
warnings. I now see that it wasn't as good an idea as it seemed at the
time.

I would still like to get the warnings fixed, though. I've updated
os_getcwd.c to check the return values, can you confirm that the
warning is fixed?

And can you send me the warning (or the patch) to os_uuid.c?

Thanks!

Applied, thanks!
