[CMake] Install CMake3.0 as alternate

2014-07-15 Thread Bradley Lowekamp
Hello,

Is there a way I can configure CMake when I build it so it's executable with 
have a 3 or 3.0 suffix, so that I can easily have multiple version of cmake 
installed into /usr/local?

I am looking for something similar to python's altinstall or gcc's 
program-suffix option.

Thanks,
Brad

I'd install CMake with a custom prefix e.g. 
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/cmake-3.0.


And create appropriate symlinks or aliases.
e.g. ln -s /opt/cmake-3.0/bin/cmake /usr/local/bin/cmake-3.0

Or run it with full path.
