CMake has some of that. It has for OS: UNIX APPLE WIN32 CYGWIN MINGW And for the compilers: Not sure it has GCC, but at least it has CMAKE_COMPILER_IS_GNUCXX BORLAND MSVC For the Intel Compiler in KDE we currently check using if(CMAKE_C_COMPILER MATCHES "icc") So there is room for improvement. I think mainly some of the cmake files in Modules/ and Modules/Platforms/ would have to be extended. For compatibility reasons I'm not sure new prefixes like "OS_" and "CC_" would be a good idea. You know already which sentence follows next... ;-) Feel free to send a patch :-) Bye Alex -- "Ein Herz für Kinder" - Ihre Spende hilft!
