My app, previously built with CodeWarrior, is currently built from
several hundred C++ source files and about 20 static libraries, some
of which also have large numbers of source files, and which are
managed via subprojects. Linking, on a dual 2GHz G5 with 2.5GB RAM,
is taking over 10 minutes, and simply loading the program into the
debugger takes around 2 or 3 minutes. This is a major drain on
productivity, as you can imagine.
If I converted all the static libs to private frameworks and linked
against those instead, would I be likely to see any improvement in
these times? I'm guessing not, since all the symbols would still need
to be resolved.
Thanks,
