Re: Application when using luabind takes loooooong time to link.

Other way around: The more you split your bindings up, the less you have to recompile/relink when one changes.

Obviously you want LTCG on for your Release build, but for anything else I'd leave it off.

Yeah, switching off the /LTCG flag made the linker faster by about 40%.
But it's still slower than normal. So I'm thinking of other ways of speeding it up.

If all of the bindings are in a single CPP file does it help?
(I think I read something like that somewhere, but I don't remember)


Thanks.

It shouldn't take a long time to link the luabind library itself (AFAIK), but if you're heavy on the binding, the compilation and linking times will definitely increase as LuaBind is so templated. I would imagine LuaBind and LTCG is a beast unleashed too ... you wouldn't have that switched on, would you?

Subject: [luabind] Application when using luabind takes loooooong time to link.

Hi,

Just started using luabind.

I must say it's a wonderful tool.

But I'm having one major glitch.


I'm using MSVC 2008 SP1.

I've built luabind (version 0.8.1) into a static library.

And I'm using it in my application and linking to the static library.


My only problem is that my application takes nearly 7 (painful) minutes to link (yes, just to link).

Is there anyway I can work around this?


Thanks
