That's the expected behavior, because CMake tries to find libXml2/Mico ** at CMake time ** , i.e. when CMake runs not when building (i.e. when gmake runs in your case). If you want to authorize a user to compile a sub-project without having the required libs installed used by other sub-project you should make ** the configuration ** of those sub-project optional and not ** their compilation ** You may use CMake "OPTION" for that purpose: OPTION(BUILD_PRINTF "Build the PRINTF Sub-project" ON) OPTION(BUILD_PUTS "Build the PUTS Sub-project" ON) IF (BUILD_PRINTF) ADD_SUBDIRECTORY("printf") ENDIF(BUILD_PRINTF) IF (BUILD_PUTS) ADD_SUBDIRECTORY("puts") ENDIF (BUILD_PUTS) When calling CMake your user/developper may decide not to compile some sub-project: cmake -DBUILD_PRINTF:BOOL=OFF in this case the default is to build both. -- Erk _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
