Hi Philip.

You don't need one. This is a perfectly valid piece of CMake code:

if(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME STREQUAL "Windows")
else()
   ... do something ...
endif()

Thanks, Petr, that never occurred to me! No wonder I couldn't find it in the documentation -- I was looking for something that wasn't there.

Cheers
Philip


Of course, the comment can be put in there, but you don't need any
commands between an if() and else() (or between any other pair of
start-end style commands, for that matter).

    Hi there,
    Does CMake have a no-op command, like 'pass' in Python or ';' in C?
    I sometimes want to create a construct like this:

    IF(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME STREQUAL "Windows")
         # Under Windows we do nothing because blah blah blah
         ...no-op...
    ELSE()
         ...do something...
    ENDIF(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME STREQUAL "Windows")


    Thanks
    Philip
