Hello
First off, much thanks to all the contributors of cmake. A truly invaluable
build utility. Your efforts
are greatly appreciated.
I've been successfully using cmake to build an external project (the client
library for redis, hiredis)
that has already been downloaded. I was able to do this with
BUILD_IN_SOURCE set to true, like so:
ExternalProject_Add(hiredis
PREFIX ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/hiredis
SOURCE_DIR ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/hiredis
BUILD_IN_SOURCE 1
CONFIGURE_COMMAND echo configure
BUILD_COMMAND make static
INSTALL_COMMAND echo install)
However, now i'd like to automatically download the source from github.
So, I switch to
the following:
set(HIREDIS_DIR ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/hiredis)
set(HIREDIS_INCLUDE_DIRS ${HIREDIS_DIR}/include)
ExternalProject_Add(hiredis
URL https://github.com/redis/hiredis/archive/v0.9.0.tar.gz
PREFIX ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/hiredis
SOURCE_DIR ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/hiredis
DOWNLOAD_DIR ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/hiredis
BUILD_IN_SOURCE 1
CONFIGURE_COMMAND ""
BUILD_COMMAND make static
INSTALL_COMMAND "")
*And I get the following error:*
[ 3%] Creating directories for 'hiredis'
[ 6%] Performing download step (download, verify and extract) for 'hiredis'

make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:147: CMakeFiles/hiredis.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:163: all] Error 2
It seems cmake is trying to invoke its internal cmake make files, rather
than just run the "make static"
build command. How do I just run the the "make static" command directly?
Once again, thanks.
