Excerpts from Matti Niemenmaa's message of Sun Jan 18 19:47:46 +0100 2009:
3. Coadjute keeps track of command line arguments (see docs for details): for me this is really a killer feature, I don't know of anything else which does this.
ocamlbuild does this.
4. hake always uses timestamps, Coadjute can use MD5 hashes as well. 5. Coadjute can have arbitrary path specifications, hake's rules seem to be based on file extensions only, thus applying only to the current directory. Peter Miller's "Recursive Make Considered Harmful" comes to mind: http://miller.emu.id.au/pmiller/books/rmch/
[...]
Moreover, it seems that Coadjute and ocamlbuild share a fair number of design choices, maybe having a look at it could be fruitful.
Thanks, I hadn't heard of that one. It seems to be somewhat oriented towards OCaml but I'll take a look.
