You can try editing the Modules/Platform files to adjust the prefixes and extensions used when computing library names. Then you just need to setup the CMAKE_C_FLAGS and CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS variables correctly and make sure the project doesn't do any TRY_RUNs. You can specify the actual compiler by setting the CC and CXX environment variables before running CMake the first time in a new build tree. > Does CMake support cross-compiling in any way? Not officially, but IIRC a few people have gotten it working in some limited cases. I don't have any references for you though. > If not is it planned? Yes, we plan to separate the notion of host and target platform in order to support cross compiling. However this is still a way off in the future. -Brad _______________________________________________ CMake mailing list CMake@cmake.org http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
