Re: Root configuration

Hi Nicholas,

You are right, you can combine them into one. I just like to separate things for educational purposes :-) Often, compilation and linking are separate phases.

Separate root-config invocations also allow the positioning of ROOT's -L in front of -lTree etc, something I prefer.

Cheers, Axel.
