Hello gga, Unfortunately, the ADD_DEFINITIONS aren't being used in the initial tests being done by cmake. What I've found is that I need to put the location of the 64bit linker utils needed by g++ in my PATH. In this instance, its calling the wrong assembler. The assembler is implicitly called by g++ and -B would allow me to set the path.
Building CXX object CMakeFiles/cmTryCompileExec.dir/testCXXCompiler.o /.package/gcc-3.4.0/bin/g++ -o CMakeFiles/cmTryCompileExec.dir/testCXXCompiler.o -c /test/CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp/testCXXCompiler.cxx /tmp/ccRjnwzu.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/ccRjnwzu.s:8: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `push' /tmp/ccRjnwzu.s:10: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `movq' gmake[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/cmTryCompileExec.dir/testCXXCompiler.o] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/test/CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp' gmake: *** [cmTryCompileExec/fast] Error 2 Is there any way to pass a flag to g++ being invoked by the testing utils? I'm at least able to put the c++ compiler specification in a cache file, but I need to know how to prevent the path to the linker utils to be at the whim of the developer's environment.
