Hi,
I am seeking for advise. I would like to run some CTest tests from the build
tree, which require C++ or Python modules created in other project directories
(packages). For this I need to build correctly the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and
PYTHONPATH and use the command set_property(TEST xxx PROPERTY ENVIRONMENT
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=yyy PYTHONPATH=xxx). The question is how to make this the most
easy and transparent way as possible, since the modules I would need in the
tests are not easily known a priori.
If I could set a global variable in each package that creates a module,
something like <PACKAGE>_MODULE_DIRS and I could collect these in the package
that I want to run the test and build the ENVIRONMENT property accordingly. The
problem is that it is not so easy in CMake to set global variables.
Another alternative would be to define a function called
module_directories(), which behaves like the command link_dicrectories(), that
I could call every time I create/define a module. I would then recover the list
of directories using a specific directory property, as it is done in the case
of LINK_DIRECTORIES.
Does anybody has a similar problem and has found an elegant solution? Many
thanks in advance.
