[Vxl-maintainers] RE: [Vxl-users] RE: VXL binaries for Windows?

[Ian S. <ian...@st...>]

VXL-maintainers are unlikely to want to support a separated VNL, but it
appears that there is a demand for just VNL binaries.

We could deal with both requirements by putting a "BUILD_VNL_ONLY" option
into the CMakeLists. I guess it depends what people need, but it could build
just vcl, netlib, vnl and vnl_algo.

Comments?

Ian.
