For technical reasons (which I'm sure are discussed at length in previous posts) CMake uses absolute paths in generated Makefiles / VCproj files (have a look at a generated one). Unless your target audience is going to have an identically configured machine (down to the location of the source and binary directories and dependent libraries) OR you're planning on trying to modify CMake generated VCproj files before the user attempts compilation, they are most likely going to need CMake. -- Philip Lowman
