Hi Paul,

yes, I do it in this way and it works good.

Only if the target system is Windows, there may be a Problem if prefix is something like "C:/programs" ...


But in most embedded unix like systems, there is no problem.

Hi cmake mailing list !

When i cross compile with autotools, i used to do
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local ...
$ make install DESTDIR=${SYSROOT}

Now, with cmake i do
$ cmake source_dir -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ...
$ make install DESTDIR=${SYSROOT}

Is it a good practice ?
What is the right way for doing a compilation for a foreign (embedded) filesystem ?


Thank for your help.

Paul.
