Remote Build

[Robert Jonsson]

Hi,

Indeed, this is very good news!

We are interested in pretty much the same thing, though doing remote 
development on Solaris.
Such scripts, remote make and remote debug (drool), and the following 
integration to kdevelop/gideon would be heaven sent!

Be sure to post the results/decisions of any meeting you have here on the 
list. I'd be very interested in the outcome.

On a related note.... I'm not too familiar with what is possible with cygwin 
wrt to running commands from a SHELL. I have to wonder if this concept also 
would work towards Windows? 
I mean developing on a Linux machine with kdevelop but compiling on a windows 
machine. Anybody knowledgeable in this area?

Regards,
Robert
