Summary [EFL] Remove CMakeCache.txt before building
Chris Dumez
Reported 2012-06-09 11:47:49 PDT
The CMakeCache.txt file gets outdated when build DEFINES are changed (e.g. a feature is enabled). This leads to unexpected behavior when a flag such as "SHADOW_DOM" is added but is not taken into consideration because of the CMake cache. Newly unskipped tests will then fail on the bot because the functionality has not been enabled. This already happened several times. As a consequence, I'm proposing to edit the build script to remove the CMakeCache.txt before every build. This will effectively prevent this problem from happening again.

I think CMakeCache.txt is still useful when we wanna build cmake project with other options. However, in this case, it looks we don't need to keep CMakeCache.txt because "build-webkit --efl" always uses same build directory. To my quick test, there is no big performance gain when we use CMakeCache.txt. So, I agree with this removal.
