Yes, that was it. Thank you. I had hacked it into working by just setting CMAKE_ASM_COMPILER, but that was clearly a hack.
One nit that I did have to work around: it doesn't seem to support operands on the compiler name, though in trolling through code trying to understand what I'd done wrong, I saw things that looked like they might have been trying to. IOW, if I: SET(CMAKE_ASM${ASM_DIALECT}_COMPILER_INIT "rexx.exe" "cc.rex dasm.exe") then CMake works, but invokes rexx.exe without the "cc.rex dasm.exe" parameters. It happens that I can work around this for my application, but since it works in a toolchain file: SET(CMAKE_C_COMPILER "rexx.exe" "cc.rex dcc.exe") SET(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER "rexx.exe" "cc.rex dcxx.exe") it seems like it should here (for varying values of "should"). I'd offer some updates to http://www.kwwidgets.org/Wiki/CMake/Assembler to help others avoid my idiocy if you're interested. ...phsiii -----Original Message----- From: Alexander Neundorf [mailto:a.neundorf-w...@gmx.net] Sent: Sunday, March 01, 2009 4:05 PM To: cmake@cmake.org Cc: Phil Smith Subject: Re: [CMake] ASM support On Thursday 26 February 2009, Phil Smith wrote: > I got back on this, and found a big part of my problem.
