Hi,
I'll submit a patch as soon as I've managed to work around some remaining
issues. After messing around with some registry stuff, here's where I'm
currently standing. I had a hard time to find whether VS stores the information
on all the different SDKs in the registry or in a file. Concerning Windows
Mobile they are stored in a config file called
${VSHOME}\VC\vcpackages\WCE.VCPlatform.config. Now I'm using a special XML
parser engine derived from cmXMLParser to parse it and to get a vector of
structs containing all the information, including the used instruction set, the
exact SDK name, etc.
I also removed the need for the additional command line flags. All the
toolchain-based stuff moved into the generator, because the only important flag
to set is the "WINCE" flag to access the platform specific files. Everything
else can also be parsed from the SDK definitions. Also the compilers/assemblers
are set in the generator itself, because basically it is just a change of
executables within VS (because they are part of VS anyway).
Now I end up having a generator with a set of SDKs and, unfortunately, only one
possibility to set "this->PlatformName" to one of the SDKs. This means that it
would be necessary to either
- use a user-dialog based selection of the SDKs found, which might not be easy,
or
- introduce some additinal functionality into the VS generators (or at least
this one) to set up projects for all platforms found (which would be my
preferred solution).
In principle, the second way should not be that hard, as most of the
functionality is already there. As I've stated before I guess that there has to
be a second layer, which simply "loops" through a vector of platforms; this
will be my next step. One open question is how to pass specific options from
outside using a CMakeLists.txt to a specific platform within the generator.
However, I have not really thought about that yet.
Regards
Clemens
