Re: [CMake] find_library doesn't find .dll on windows
Hi,
This is a feature/problem on Windows, the library used for dynamic linking
is not the runtime module as Linux or OSX but the .lib, a collection of
symbols.
I suggest you could still use find_library() to locate the .lib file for
linking, then use find_file() to collect the runtime file then install it
to the distribution.
Thanks.

[CMake] CMakeLists.txt in different place than source
I have a situation where I want my CMakeLists.txt in a different place than my source. e.g.: /some/path/project/CMakeLists.txt /other/path/source/src/a.c /other/path/source/include/a.h Is there an easy way to say "process this CMakeLists.txt as if it were in /other/path/source" (at least as far as file paths are concerned)? e.g.: add_library(my_lib src/a.c include/a.h ) target_include_directories(my_lib PUBLIC include) I know I can add a full path prefix to every file, but there are a lot of them. I'm hoping for a shortcut. -- Andrew -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.

[CMake] Is there a way to customize the generate step trigger?
Hi folks, my cmake code reads version tags from the underlying git repository, derives a new version with the help of the existing tags and then sets that new version to the project() call. However, the cmake generate step is not triggered when the version tags in the repository change, so the version that is compiled into the project is not always up-to-date. So I was wondering if CMake offers the possibility to customize the up-to-date check of the generate step, to make it automatically re-run when the tags in the repository are changed? Thank you for your time. -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
