you may have a look at FeatureSummary.cmake, maybe this is useful.

Re: [CMake] List all packages

2019-01-13 Thread Lectem
Thanks for the answers

You can visualize dependencies between targets with Graphvis:

This is not really what I need, I want to see all the available packages 
installed on my PC (package registry, Find_XXX modules …), not the hierarchy of 
targets in a cmakelists.txt


Hey,

As far as I know there is no such mechanism. But you can write a little script 
f.e. in python (or cmake itself) which can do that, because it is just a simple 
file search.

Aw that’s sad, I’d like to avoid writing my own script because there are a lot 
of things to take into account based on the platform.
It would be better if I could invoke cmake from the commandline to do this.

Should such feature-request be sent to the mailing list or gitlab ?

Hello, Lectem.

Hi,
 
Is there a way to list all the packages (both config files and find-modules) 
that find_package could find ?
Could we even imagine this would also permit to list the variables and targets 
created in it ?
I think that would be a very helpful to have for debugging find_package, 
especially when you don’t have access to the system having issues (user bug 
reports for example).

Cheers,
Lectem
