Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist CMake is used to control the software compilation process using simple platform and compiler independent configuration files. CMake generates native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in the compiler environment of your choice. CMake is quite sophisticated: it is possible to support complex environments requiring system configuration, pre-processor generation, code generation, and template instantiation.
CMake was developed by Kitware as part of the NLM Insight Segmentation and Registration Toolkit project. The ASCI VIEWS project also provided support in the context of their parallel computation environment. Other sponsors include the Insight, VTK, and VXL open source software communities. See URL http://public.kitware.com/CMake/ This will end up being depended upon by future packaging of VTK. Upstream Sponsors: National Library of Medicine (NLM) - Dr. Terry Yoo Insight Consortium, ITK is the original sponsoring project for CMake. Kitware, Inc. - Kitware personnel, primarily Bill Hoffman, Ken Martin, and Brad King, were the principal developers of CMake.
