Hi, With !977 merged, it is possible to base ccmake and cmake-gui on top of the cmake server. For demonstration, I copied the contents of the Source/CursesDialog directory and added a proxy implementation of the classes `cmake` and `cmState`. The result is 100% compatible with `ccmake`. The same would be possible with cmake-gui.
Shall we proceed in this direction? To make the server available everywhere, we should backport the code from C++14 to C++11. I think this is limited to replacing `std::make_shared`. For cmake-gui, the proxies could use Qt functionality (QProcess, QJsonDocument, etc.). As a result, cmake-gui would not have any build dependencies apart from Qt. It might be worth considering to move ccmake and cmake-gui to their own repositories. Cheers, Daniel
