This is what you get if you're missing a proper package management that allows users to easily install their libraries.
That single file is the substitute for a package that you can simply put somewhere, include it and it works.
- tom_ 8y agoIt takes all sorts, but I prefer the headers. Each project’s copy only gets upgraded explicitly, the debug info is always there, single stepping always works, there’s never a problem with ABI/compiler option mismatches (and you get the unoptimised version in your unoptimised build), anybody that gets the repo automatically gets all the dependencies too.

- tom_ 8y agoSure... but it would have to be proper-as-in-proper. And what are the chances of that? Seems to be hard enough to even enforce the rule that ``-O3 -g'' is a thing, let alone all the rest :(
- enriquto 8y ago> That single file is the substitute for a package that you can simply put somewhere, include it and it works. So the substitute is much better than the package!
