[Scilab-users] Creation of a library with macros located in various folders

[Samuel Gougeon]

Hello Pierre,

Scilab 6.0 will propose a new function *tbx_make*(..) that will be able 
to do exactly what you want:
https://codereview.scilab.org/#/c/18071/

By the way, it will greatly simplify compilation of modules, and will no 
longer require many cooky-files .sce like buildmacros.sce buildoc.sce 
etc etc spread everywhere in the tree of files of a module.
On the forefront, tbx_make() aims to replace & merge most of functions 
of the "modules manager" module, that are rather some atomic internals 
not really welcome as public functions:
https://help.scilab.org/docs/6.0.0/en_US/section_d8452c14ec97df3c90ea90bb4f7d53b6.html

If you use Scilab on Linux, you can already test tbx_make() in the 
nightly built release (*).

If you are working with Scilab 5, you may use the attached script. Its 
how-to is in comments.

Regards
Samuel

(*) tbx_make() merged on 2016-10-02 in the master release is still 
unavailable in the today NB sticking on the 2016-09-22 sources for Windows.

// "genlib" a folder of macros with subfolders of macros
// The name of the folder yields the name of the main library (+"lib")
// The name of each subfolder yields the name of the related sublibrary (+"lib")

// Put this script in the main macros folder and exec() it from anywhere.
