Description Andreas Kremser 2006-07-04 07:13:27 UTC

different compiler-options affect program performance in defferent ways.
For example the Swift-Fox project tries to find the best compiler-options for the mozilla-firefox browser.
Wouldn't it be nice to have the possibility to set individual Compile-Flags just like the settings for use-flags in package.use?

Gentoo is about choice and thus for performance-tweaks (at least i heard something like that ;) )- so this would be a very nice enhancement.

beside that some packages just won't compile with several compiler-options set - in such cases this would be also a way to go.

thank you for wasting your time reading this proposal ;)

i apologize if such a feature request already exists, i did not find anything like this.

best wishes, Andreas Kremser
