-----------------------------
Summary: [C++] A few issues with cmake scripts and non-vendored
third party libraries
Key: ORC-266
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ORC-266
Project: ORC
Issue Type: Bug
Components: C++
Reporter: Jim Crist
Currently there are a few issues with the cmake build system:
- Running `make install` (or `make package`) when using any non-vendored third
party library results in copying all files not matching `"*.so|*.dylib"` from
the `*_HOME/lib` directory into the `lib/` directory. This is because third
party libraries are being installed via a filter instead of specific file
paths. This is definitely a bug.
- There is no easy way to specify third party library locations when using orc
as an `ExternalProject` in another cmake project. This is easily fixed by
separating the defining of `*_HOME` variables from their use, which allows e.g.
`-DSNAPPY_HOME=...` to work.
- There is no way to avoid building the tests
- There is no way to avoid building the tools
- The LICENSE and NOTICE get installed into the root directory, which is not
where they should go. Since the header files all contain the license header,
and other apache projects don't install the license, the lines installing these
files should be removable.
