--- Comment #4 from Thomas Fischer <fisc...@unix-ag.uni-kl.de> --- (In reply to Igor Kushnir from comment #3) > I don't know if KDevelop's disregarding of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX change in > CMake Cache Values is a bug or an intentional feature (not particularly > obvious or intuitive). Anyway, perhaps these settings shouldn't be labeled > as "advanced" and should be visible by default... Actually, there are three places where a user may enter CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX: 1. In the "Cache values" 2. In the "Advanced" section, visible only after pressing the button "Show Advanced" 3. As an "Extra argument" in the form of "-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=..." Changing the path in the Advanced section (item 2 above), then applying the change does change the value in the Cached values. In any other direction I could not observe any effect. My recommendations would be: 1. Have fields to enter an "Installation prefix" aka CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX at only one place, not both at Cached Values and Advanced. Drop one (or link/sync both). 2. In case the user enters "-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=..." in the Extra arguments, extract the path, apply it to the dedicated input widget, and remove "-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=..." remove from the Extra arguments. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
