[CMake] Tips to create a UseXYZ.cmake
Hello, Besides digging in the existing UseVTK, UseITK, UseOpenIGTLing, ... is there a short description of the philosophy and basic commands to use? Any pointer is welcome. This would be for a project with multiple external dependencies, i.e. libxml, openCV, Python, numpy, ...
