[CMake] Subdirectory can't find library made by another subdir

Hi everyone, I'm having a bug on CMake 3.12 (version and syntax). Here is my structure. RootFolder     CMakeLists.txt (C1)     library/         CMakeLists.txt (C2)     samples/         CMakeLists.txt (C3) In my C1, I add subdir library and samples. C2 builds a library target (LIB). My pr

Re: [CMake] Does CMake support the --question option for GNU Makefiles?

Thanks for the quick response it makes more sense now. Looking at our CMake files, I see now that all our targets are indeed PHONY, because we use *add_custom_target *to create those targets. So no matter what they are always considered out of date. For now I'll have to assume that whoever wrote th

Re: [CMake] Does CMake support the --question option for GNU Makefiles?

I think this is just a misunderstanding and not related to CMake. Make --question mode always returns a 1 if the target is PHONY because these targets are always out of date. The Makefiles generated by CMake use a top level PHONY target (and other PHONY targets as well) zzz@i7-lab:~/temp/bldlibvn

[CMake] Does CMake support the --question option for GNU Makefiles?

We are using cmake for our project and recently discovered that the generated Makefiles do not seem to work correctly with the '--question' or '-q' option. The return code is always '1' even if there are no changes which would require rebuilding/recompiling anything. I am not sure if this is an iss

Re: [CMake] dependencies of cross compiliations

I like the idea, some tweaks that I think you need add_host_build - executables built here need to be available not as targets, but as variables as if FIND_EXECUTABLE was called on them. This is probably what you meant, but it didn't come across that way. In the case where you are cross compili

Dear Eric, just to let you know, your suggestion of using a post-install-script for all system-wide links and files was indeed the solution to a working RPM package. Now my files are completely encapsulated in /opt/PKGNAME/ and install works fine. Cheers and Thanks, Mario On 23.11.18 15:3

[CMake] Cmake Boost::boost target PRIVATE link, forcing dependency on client

I am having a problem with make 3.12 (windows) and cmake version 3.13.0-rc2 (linux). I am attempting to link boost headers privately to a static library, which is then linked by a client executable, that I do not want to depend on boost. According to the docs, the find_package(Boost) provides a
