[Warning: I am a CMake beginner.] Hi,
This must have been asked many times, but I can't find the answer... (I did look at the CMake FAQ.) If I use the autotools and I want to make a Linux source code distribution to a user who doesn't have the autotools installed, I ship him the source together with script configure. Then, he can run: $ ./configure $ make $ make install How is one supposed to deliver a source package to a user who doesn't have cmake installed? http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake_tutorial.html#s6 contains a simple CMake example that uses CPack. I downloaded the source code (from http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/Tests/Tutorial/Step6/?root=CMake). The tutorial says: "To create a source distribution you would type cpack -C CPackSourceConfig.cmake" but when I run this command, I get a package (Tutorial-1.0.1-Linux.tar.gz) that contains these files: * bin/libMathFunctions.a * bin/Tutorial * include/MathFunctions.h * include/TutorialConfig.h Hardly a source distribution to me. I have Ubuntu, and cmake 2.8.0. -- dave _______________________________________________ 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
