Thanks for the input Bruce. Unfortunately, your suggestion is what we used
to use, but have found it to be less than satisfactory. There are actually
4 separate components here, 3 of which depend on 1 other component (we'll
call it CORE). We used to just build the CORE DIRS file in the BuildMethod
of each of the 3 dependant components, but that just takes too long.
There's no sense in building something 3 times when it only needs to be
built once. Not only is it time consuming, it's tacky. What would be
preferable is if we could guarantee that CORE is built prior to any of the 3
dependant components. I've tried reordering things in the CEC file, but I
haven't been able to change the build order this way. Does anyone know how
to force a component to be built prior to another component, while keeping
the components seperate?
Thanks in advance,
Jeremy
