I would like to bump this thread again because it is causing us some pain over on the Homebrew package manager. For example, if the user has installed a package like the Mono distribution, there are a lot of 32-bit Framworks that get swept into anything compiled CMake and this breaks the builds: https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/11030 In this situation it would be _really helpful_ to be able to tell CMake, via the command line, to use our 64-bit libraries first before looking at the 32-bit frameworks. Unfortunately, since the defaults in the platform file override the command line arguments there is no way to do this without patching the CMake build files for every software package we manage---an infeasible solution. So, is there any reason `IF(NOT DEFINED CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK)` cannot be used in the platform file to protect command line arguments? -Charlie -- View this message in context: http://cmake.3232098.n2.nabble.com/Why-does-CMAKE-FIND-FRAMEWORK-always-default-to-FIRST-ignoring-command-line-definitions-tp7521759p7579586.html Sent from the CMake mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- 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
