Its already in cmake-gui.
Get the CVS version and you'll see it under Tools -> Show My Changes.
It'll give both -D command line arguments for cmake, and text you can use for an initial cache file.

I would call it "Modified Variables" though instead of "User View".

Hi,

This issue was touched twice in the past
http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2009-April/thread.html#28419
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg22904.html

Now I come with a feature proposal. I would like your comments on it before
adding it as an official feature request and maybe even start working on it.


cmake-gui keeps track of user settings within a session.

cmake-gui is very useful specially for complex projects where iterative
configuration may be required in order to fix all dependencies.
A lot of times after you do the discovery step using cmake-gui the command
line equivalent is required.

I propose to add a new view: User View that would highlight only the
variables
with which the user interacted but not the ones that were triggered by
setting
them.

the output tab may for example show the cmake command line equivalent.

Alin
