cross-platfrom build tools

[Saurabh Garg]

I am about to start work on a cross-platform library (in c++) and I am looking for build tools. At the moment I know about cmake[^], jam[^] and ant[^]. I am more inclined towards cmake as it can generate native makefiles and workspaces. This will allow me to create workspace for most popular compilers and users dont have to bother about installing ant or jam before they can use my library. what are your opinions? any pointers or personal experiences. thanks, -Saurabh

Looks like you didn't get much of an answer, make is about the most general build tool out there.
