Hi all, Since some days I’m trying to build a toolchain for crosscompiling but I stuck so far while trying to execute a buildprocess with two stages. According to a makefile I use as template, the processing looks as follows:
Given some .c sourcefiles the makefile executes: Invoking: Compiler CTC.EXE mcs0.c –I… --Flags… -o MCS0.src Invoking: Assembler ASTC.EXE MCS0.src –Flags… -o MCS0.o Invoking: Linker LTC.EXE MCS0.o … librt.a … -I –Flags… -L… I create a toolchain file and also some platform configuration for compiler and assembler. However I have in particular a problem to invoke the assembler. That is, when calling add_executable with the c-files as arguments the src-files are generated. But these files are fed to the linker without the intermediate step to build the object files. Of course the linker says ‘unknown file format’. I have tried to provide an assembler configuration that is enabled with enable_language before, but this works only for src-files that are provided to the add_executable() instead of the c-files (c->src with a custom target before, calling the compiler). The assembler is not applied to the automatically generated .src files in the first step … that means if I provide (for testing) some c-files and some src-files, both are processed correctly, but not the src-files resulting from the compiler during the build of the target. My third option was to implement both the compiler and assembler call by means of custom target … however .. don’t’ work until now and seems more or less the ugly solution. Has anyone experience with this kind of building … without using custom targets? What is the general method to enable such two-step build process? My goal is to provide a toolchain-configuration with the specification of assembler, compiler, linker and archiver … for me is also not completely clear how to enable an assembler like the compiler with CMAKE_C_COMPILER. E.g. CMAKE_C_CREATE_ASSEMBLY_SOURCE has no effect on my configuration. So far I did not found a comprehensive documentation of this feature(s), even in the cmake-book. Therefore I would be very thankfull for any kind of information ;-) Cu, Alex -- 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
