CMake uses curl for networking (all sync), but libuv was added for the server mode's event loop. It also comes with process execution, some filesystem helpers and other things that kwsys does today that we can drop once we move to it. AFAICT, asio looks like it's mostly a networking library and doesn't overlap well with libuv and CMake's requirements. > Or even Qt's event loop since it's already here. Qt isn't required by core CMake, just cmake-gui. --Ben -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
