By coincidence I just yesterday discovered a need for this macro in CMake itself. I've added it to the modules as CMakeDependentOption.cmake. I'm not sure whether it will make the cut for 2.4.4 but it will be in a release by 2.4.5. -Brad _______________________________________________ CMake mailing list CMake@cmake.org http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
