[CMake] xcodeproj internal reference lottery
i am using cmake 2.8.0 on mac os x 10.6.2 with xcode 3.2.1 for generating .xcodeproj files for a large cross platform project. internally, .xcodeproj package files neatly distinguish project from user data information (such as debug settings) in separate files: project.pbxproj and user.pbxuser. in there, file references are tracked by hex ids: 104043E30104043E30104043 /* main.cpp */ now it happens, that each time i sync to head of the repository (with typically only a handful files changed) and recreate the project, cmake selects a complete new set of hex ids for its project.pbxproj file. as a result, user.pbxuser (while it does not get overwritten by cmake) is rendered no longer useful and is subsequently reset by xcode to default. is there a way to preserve those hex ids (or my debug setting for that matter)? maybe cmake could be configured with a seed hex ref from which all others are derived in a consistent manner.

Re: [CMake] xcodeproj internal reference lottery
The CMake generator for Xcode simply uses object pointers as the seed for those hex ids: that's why they change every time you run cmake. It's also what makes it easy to guarantee that those ids are unique without having a data structure to track it. Re-using the same ids would be possible, but it would add complexity to the xcode generator, and the ids would have to be cached and tracked somehow. It's a fairly tall order... If you have the time to propose how to do it, perhaps submitting a feature request and a patch to the bug tracker, I would be happy to review it.

Since this kind of function should be fast, may be you do not even have to cache the hexid. Theoretically there may be some collision but occurence probability should be very low.

Re: [CMake] Weird behaviour of mark_as_advanced(), find_program() and the cache
Alexander Neundorf wrote: This sees the variable is already in the cache, but without meta info and adds it using AddCacheDefinition(). After this call, makefile-GetDefinition(FOO) returns an empty string, before this call it still returns foo. It's not the empty string in find_program()'s call to AddCacheDefinition that raises this problem. It's the bottom of cmMakefile's implementation of the method: // if there was a definition then remove it this-Internal-VarStack.top().Set(name, 0); I didn't figure out the correct way how to improve this. This is related to the open issue http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=9008 discussed previously. I think it should end up in the cache as foo with the type FILEPATH, but I didn't figure out how to achieve this. Issue #9008 basically means you should never mix cache and non-cache variables with the same name. There are all kinds of historical reasons behind their interaction and changing anything will lead to subtle breakage for someone. (The original attempt at CMP0015 for issue 9008 is evidence of this.) The only safe way to combine cache and local variables of the same name is to do *all* the cache stuff first, and then later override it locally. -Brad ___ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake

Have you tried making the Doc/Assistant.app/Contents/Plugins not a symlink, but a copy of Bundle.app/Contents/Plugins instead? Just for debugging... Moving the libqsqlite.dylib library into MacOS can't help because Qt is always searching for $PLUGINS_DIR/sqldrivers/libsqlite.dylib, where $PLUGINS_DIR is the directory where Qt looks for plugins.

[CMake] combining cmake and qmake
Hello, I have a library that contain the core of my application. I have been running this application in text-mode so far. I will now extend it to use a GUI, and I've chosen Qt. I have used cmake to generate Makefiles on linux/g++4.x and solutions files on win32/vs2008. Qt comes with qmake which takes .pro files as input and also generates Makefiles or vs2008 solution files.

It's the bottom of cmMakefile's implementation of the method: // if there was a definition then remove it this-Internal-VarStack.top().Set(name, 0); I didn't figure out the correct way how to improve this. This is related to the open issue http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=9008 discussed previously. Yes. I think it should end up in the cache as foo with the type FILEPATH, but I didn't figure out how to achieve this. Issue #9008 basically means you should never mix cache and non-cache variables with the same name. There are all kinds of historical reasons behind their interaction and changing anything will lead to subtle breakage for someone. (The original attempt at CMP0015 for issue 9008 is evidence of this.) Yes, I remember. Still this issue here is really weird, the variable suddenly becomes empty, although the normal variable was set before to a value and the find_program() should have put something (either foo or its result) into the cache. But afterwards, the normal variable is gone and the cache is empty. Should I add this testcase to #9008 ?

It's worryingly quiet on this subject.
So, just exclude the target that won't build from ALL.
I'm afraid you've lost me there. Do I do this within a CMakeLists.txt

My current CMakeLists.txt relies upon ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(project_name) in
order to generate the build targets.
How do I conditionally exclude project_name from ALL in this case ?
Thanks,

###
project(super)

You can also test CMAKE_GENERATOR and CMAKE_EXTRA_GENERATOR (contains the IDE
for the makefile-based project generators like Eclipse) for the current
generator.

Beside the compression type problem it's not guaranted that dependencies found in 11.1 will be backward compatible with the one found in 10.1. (libc or any other dynamic lib dependencies) but I guess you already know that. You should be building something static or self-contained right? The problem is that the rpm generated on the 11.1 machine is lzma-compressed, but this is not supported on the 10.1 machine. So, is it possible to tell rpmbuild which compression type to use ? I don't know if it's possible at all :-( I would expect this to be either an extra rpmbuild option or a specific spec file directive. Would you try to launch (on OpenSuSE 11.1) rpmbuild --showrc and see whether if there is some lzma related default parameters in there. I'll have a look tonight on my OpenSuSE virtual machine tonight too. If so, is this already supported by the rpm generator (doesn't seem so) ? RPM generator does not support custom rpmbuild parameter but it support custom spec file so depending on the solution (if it exists) it may already be possible or not :-) Ok, found it, thanks to the friendly guys from SUSE :-) For bzip2: %define _binary_payload w9.bzdio for gzip: %define _binary_payload w9.gzdio for lzma: %define _binary_payload w9.lzdio I've set this using the CPACK_RPM_SPEC_MORE_DEFINE variable.

Re: [CMake] Using absolute values in include_directories directive
You can do this at configure-time, by doing
include_directories($ENV{WHATEVERDIR})
although that's generally discouraged - use a find module instead to set
SOMEPACKAGE_INCLUDE_DIRS that you can use like:
include_directories(${SOMEPACKAGE_INCLUDE_DIRS})
For the case of QT, see my recent email to the list showing a clean
CMake file for building a QT app.

Is there a way to make CMake to not put C:/basedir/ before $(QTDIR) ?

Re: [CMake] Using absolute values in include_directories directive
Hi John, thanks for answering.
I'm actually porting a project from VC++ to be built using CMake tools, and
thus I'm first translating the VCPROJ files into CMakeLists.txt files. I'll
try what you said, but I still would like to know if there's a way to do what I
was trying to do.
Thanks !

If you need this only for Qt. Why don't you use the proper Qt support in CMake?
FIND_PACKAGE(Qt4 REQUIRED)
INCLUDE(${QT_USE_FILE})
# Use the include path and library for Qt that is used by VTK.
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(
${QT_INCLUDE_DIR}
)

Re: [CMake] CPack RPM: how to specify the compression type ?
2010/3/3 Alexander Neundorf a.neundorf-w...@gmx.net: RPM generator does not support custom rpmbuild parameter but it support custom spec file so depending on the solution (if it exists) it may already be possible or not :-) Ok, found it, thanks to the friendly guys from SUSE :-) For bzip2: %define _binary_payload w9.bzdio for gzip: %define _binary_payload w9.gzdio for lzma: %define _binary_payload w9.lzdio I've set this using the CPACK_RPM_SPEC_MORE_DEFINE variable. That's definitely the appropriate spaceholder. Maybe this could be supported via something like a CPACK_RPM_COMPRESSION_TYPE variable ? Yes I'll add it to my TODO list. May be I'll have to check whether if it's supported by other RPM based distros (Mandriva, RedHat, CentOS, Fedora etc...) in order to make it robust, i.e. ignoring i tif not supported. Would you be kind enough to file a feature request and assign it to me? I'll try to bundle this during my next CPackRPM working session. -- Erk Membre de l'April - « promouvoir et défendre le logiciel libre » - http://www.april.org ___ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake

[CMake] Canonical use of FindPackageHandleStandardArgs
Hi,
I'm writing some FindXXX.cmake macros [1] and I'd like to master some
best practices I use and I'm having troubles with picturing what should
canonical use of FindPackageHandleStandardArgs look like.
I'm aware I've used it incorrectly in many places.
I'm looking for confirmation if it should be something along
these
1) Set lookup mode to quiet if user explicitly asked to find MYLIB
quietly or if it's already found:
if(MYLIB_FIND_QUIETLY OR MYLIB_FOUND)
set(FIND_MYLIB_QUIET_ARG QUIET)
endif()
2) Call find passing selected lookup mode
find_package(MYLIB ${FIND_MYLIB_QUIET_ARG})
3) Perform other checks, but do not call message() if
MYLIB_FIND_QUIETLY is requested, otherwise lookup will not be really quiet
4) Check and report results
find_package_handle_standard_args(MYLIB
DEFAULT_MSG MYLIB_LIBRARY MY_INCLUDE_DIR)
Have I missed anything?

Re: [CMake] Canonical use of FindPackageHandleStandardArgs
I took a quick look at your MySQL script and can offer these suggestions:
- The idiom that follows is outdated and unnecessary (no if-else
needed because find_whatever won't run if the variable it's given
already has a valid value, and find_package_handle... takes care of the
silent bit.):
if(MYSQL_INCLUDE_DIR AND MYSQL_LIBRARY)
# Already in cache, be silent
set(MYSQL_FIND_QUIETLY TRUE)
else()
as is this (as above, the find_package_handle_standard_args takes care
of it):
if(MYSQL_INCLUDE_DIR AND MYSQL_LIBRARY_DIR)
set(MYSQL_FOUND TRUE)
- You probably don't want the find_library calls for the optional libs
inside any sort of conditional - it's not necessary.
- Don't call include_directories or link_directories from your find
script - let the user do that since you don't know what else they're
using and you can't know if order for those is important - it might be.
- Search for dependent libraries like zlib (is there a stock find
script?), yassl, taocrypt before the find_package_handle... call, and if
they're needed, pass their variable name into that call.
- Be sure to set the plural versions of the variables (INCLUDE_DIRS,
LIBRARIES) to include the dependencies (these should not be cached), and
leave the singular version for just a single path/file (these should be
cached, as by default
- Mark all variables as advanced except for a single variable that
specifies a root to search, traditionally called something like
MYSQL_ROOT_DIR. If MYSQL_FOUND is true after the find_package_handle...
call, then mark MYSQL_ROOT_DIR as advanced as well. A good rule of
thumb is to look at the simple view in ccmake or cmake-gui: if there's
anything showing that doesn't require user attention (project build-time
options, root_dir variables for missing dependencies), it should be
advanced.
In your emailed example:
I presume the mylib in step 2 is different than the mylib in step 1 and
3/4, because otherwise you have an infinitely-recursive find script.
Please clarify, preferably with an actual example.
If the lib in step 2 is a dependency, convention varies, but it seems
prudent to me to always find dependencies quietly: this prevents them
from showing up in lists from FeatureSummary, etc. Anything you require
in that dependency package should be passed to your
find_package_handle_standard_args call which will make the appropriate
noises if it shouldn't be quiet and it can't be found.
If you're not doing find scripts that depend on other find scripts, then
look in the archives from a month or so ago: I posted some sample find
scripts that are modern and clean in style. You can also take a peek at
everything except FindDirectShow.cmake (I didn't write that one or
rewrite it beyond running my cleanup app on it, and it's sorely in need
of work) here: http://github.com/rpavlik/vrpn/tree/master/vrpn/cmake/
Hope this helps!

It should be easy to read and learn from. Of course, now that I look at it, I see I'm not finding my dependencies quietly: I will probably change that...

[CMake] Find_Library question
Hello all, I'm using Find_Library call at several places to locate libraries. The document says if Find_Library finds the library it stores the path in a cache variable, and Find_Library does not gets called again for the variable. Now If I run configure, Find_Library seems to be trying to find the library again. What I expect is, CMake first reads the CMakeCache.txt file, and then calls Find_Library. Now that variable is cached, Find_Library should not be trying to find the library again. I've a set of .cmake scripts and include them in master file using Include call. Most of the .cmake files contain Find_Library calls and nothing else. What I've observed is, CMake is taking longer to configure with these cmake scripts included. If I comment them out then configure is pretty fast. As these .cmake files contain Find_Library and nothing else, I feel Find_Library is trying to find library again and again. Am I missing something here ? I'm using Cmake-2.8.1 RC3 on Windows.
