You might be able to get a lot of what you're looking for from preprocessor definitions. These could be wrapped into a CMake function that calls try_run() http://predef.sf.net Currently the CMAKE_LANG_COMPILER_ID variables are computed using the preprocessor. Basically we compile a source file with default flags and then read the strings directly out of the resulting binaries (which works for cross-compiling too). I want to extend this to get the compiler version and perhaps some other information in one step, but I've not had time to do it yet. -Brad ___ 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
Re: [CMake] Getting the compiler version?
Not really a portable way but there are usually compiler specific ways which then get wrapped in lots of if() commands based on what is being used. If you look through the FindBoost.cmake file that comes with CMake around line 535 you may be able to pull out that code which does a pretty decent job of determining compiler versions.
