Andreas,
Thanks for providing these files! I have finally been able to progress on
converting our java product to cmake.
I have one suggestion:
Add to the add_java function the classpath for the target;
set(${_TARGET_NAME}_CLASSPATH
".${CMAKE_JAVA_INCLUDE_PATH_FINAL}/${_TARGET_NAME}.jar" PARENT_SCOPE)
I needed this on linux (uses ':' in classpath not ';' ) to do an add_test.
Also two questions:
How do I get the jar files into an output folder for build/test (not install
task)?
After I build my JNI Library with normal C process how do I connect the java
JAR to use the library? I'm not sure how to use INSTALL_JNI_SYMLINK?
