Could you elaborate on which configurations CMake current can NOT support and
the failure mechanism under CMake? What are the motivations for moving to
CMake 3.10? (I like new versions of CMake but does moving to CMake 3.10
actually solve any problems? It definitely helps on the Fortran side of things)
(Beating the dead horse...) and having a public place where developers can
track the issue and provide fixes would help the community help you. At the
moment, I have no way of knowing if someone else has tried to fix those issues
or not. I would hate to put in a bunch of time on a fix and _then_ learn that
someone else was already working on it.

Subject: [Hdf-forum] Moving to CMake 3.10.* : Re: Issues with INSTALL using
NMake Makefiles & CMake (1.8.19, 1.8.20)
All.
This year The HDF Group will be moving HDF software from CMake 3.2.* to CMake
3.10.1.
The reason is we are having too many issues reported with the current CMake
version required to build HDF (HDF5, HDF4, HDFView, misc. tools, etc.)
Originally CMake was supported only for Windows, but now we have more and more
users using CMake for building parallel, and Fortran configurations on
non-Windows platforms. I.e., we need to come up with the solution that covers
not only Windows and basic configurations of HDF. Said this we are welcoming
any patches that will help us to finish the task.
We will keep you updated on our progress, and as usual, we will have updated
software available for testing before the releases.
Thank you!
Elena
