But I guess from re-reading your first message that you did already know the command. now again autoreconf -fi ./configure seems to be autoconf entity, so since autoconf requires a shell, why would you write a CMake script ? where some of the commands are repeating... then use CMake foreach or while command. what could be a way to do this with CMake? If the objective is to run the previous sequence of command as a CMake target then create a CMake (or shell scripts) and call the script in add_custom_target. in a CMake scripts the variable CMAKE_COMMAND contains the path to CMake executable. CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL contains the build tool to use (may be 'make' in your case) may be those would be useful for a 'portable' CMake script. -- 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] bash-script-like project
I'm experiment a bit with CMake and now I would like to automate the
configuration of my Emacs configuration.
In my configuration I have many git submodules and some of them need to
be actually compiled.
So I just need to do a foreach loop and run for each of them the right
command, very simple.
So first I did a very fancy thing with functions and macro
macro (execute_in_subdir subdir command)
execute_process(
COMMAND ${command}
WORKING_DIRECTORY ${subdir}
)
endmacro ()
function (to_master_branch subdir)
# do I ever need execute_process?
execute_in_subdir(${subdir} git checkout master)
endfunction()
set(simple_make make)
#TODO: add the setting for the Emacs output
set(autoconf autoreconf -fi ./configure make)
function (org_compile)
execute_in_subdir(org_mode ${simple_make})
endfunction()
#TODO: we need to have all these tools
function (doxymacs)
execute_in_subdir(doxymacs ${autoconf})
endfunction()
function (tramp)
execute_in_subdir(tramp ${autoconf})
endfunction()
But then I actually wanted a target, and I can't find a way to call
functions
from the custom_target.
Then I found out that something like this also works and is much simpler:
add_custom_target(
org-mode ALL
cd org-mode make
)
But what's the best way to do something like this?
