Re: [CMake] Issues trying to use the Anaconda compiler tools with CMake

conda recipes explicitly define INSTALL_RPATH, likely for this reason: https://github.com/AnacondaRecipes/vtk-feedstock/blob/791a1db9026fa2c81d171c38835b512adf221794/recipe/build.sh#L30 On Mon, Aug 13, 2018 at 11:54 AM Isaiah Norton wrote: > The RPATH is not included when using Anaconda beca

Re: [CMake] Issues trying to use the Anaconda compiler tools with CMake

The RPATH is not included when using Anaconda because CMake considers the Anaconda lib path to be an implicit link directory (as reported by the compiler). Look at `$build_dir/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log` in the section about "implicit link info". The simplest work-around is to set BUILD_RPATH

I use essentially the technique in the answer below, except with `add_custom_target` instead of `add_custom_command`, so that the hash-generation is always run regardless of whether the temp file is successfully deleted: https://stackoverflow.com/a/41750028/508431 I also use a dummy

Re: [CMake] Cache variables from module

PARENT_SCOPE and CACHE can't be used in the same call, presumably because cache is global. So cmake doesn't recognize those arguments, and instead sets the variable PETSC_VERSION to a list containing all the following arguments except PARENT_SCOPE (which does still apply). Perhaps a newer cmake

I'd like to use cmake server with only a build directory argument (mostly in order to query the cache), but receive an error in return: ``` > cmake --version cmake version 3.9.4 > cmake -E server --experimental --debug > [== "CMake Server" ==[ >
