  • b2 for C++?

    Yes, this is a common stumbling block for users with the CMake background. The underlying reason is that build2 is a "multi-repo first" build system while CMake is "mono-repo first" (or perhaps even "mono-repo only"; I don't think there were repositories as we know them when Autotools was designed ;-)). In particular, in build2 it's common to build multiple independent projects/repositories in a shared build configuration. Putting this build configuration as a subdirectory of source directory of one of them would be strange. You can read more on this in this issue: https://github.com/build2/build2/issues/187
  • build2 IDE support?

    build2 can generate Clang compilation database (currently indirectly): https://github.com/build2/build2/issues/96 I believe quite a few IDEs (including CLion) can work off that.
