Praise for
Software Build Systems
“This book represents a thorough and extensive treatment of the software build
process including the choices, benefits, and challenges of a well designed build
process. I recommend it not only to all software build engineers but to all soft-
ware developers since a well designed build process is key to an effective soft-
ware development process.”
—Kevin Bodie, Director Software Development, Pitney Bowes Inc.
“An excellent and detailed explanation of build systems, an important but often
overlooked part of software development projects. The discussion of productiv-
ity as related to build systems is, alone, well worth the time spent reading this
book.”
—John M. Pantone, Objectech Corporation, VP,
IT Educator and Course Developer
“Peter Smith provides an interesting and accessible look into the world of soft-
ware build systems, distilling years of experience and covering virtually every
type of tool in the build engineer’s toolbox. Well organized, well written, and
very thorough; I would recommend this book to anyone with a build system
under their responsibility.”
—Jeff Overbey, Project Co-Lead, Photran
“Software Build Systems teaches how to think about building software. It sur-
veys the tools and techniques for building software products and the ways things
go wrong. This book will appeal to those new to build systems as well as expe-
rienced build system engineers.”
—Monte Davidoff, Software Development Consultant,
Alluvial Software, Inc.
