| | 15 | There are a few interesting improvements that can be done withing GSoC timeframe: |
| | 16 | |
| | 17 | * Signature-based update engine. This means that a MD5 checksum of a command used to update each target is recorded, and if that changes on the next run, the target is rebuilt. This will considerably |
| | 18 | improve reliability. |
| | 19 | |
| | 20 | * IDE integration. There's already initial plugin for Eclipse CDT plugin, which can be improved. Plugins for other IDEs, such as KDevelop or Visual Studio are also possible. |
| | 21 | |
| | 22 | * Packaging support. It would be nice to automatically create packages in popular distribution formats. |
| | 23 | |
| | 24 | * [https://trac.lvk.cs.msu.su/boost.build/wiki/PythonPort Python Port] can offer many tasks, though it's relatively high challenge. |
