[CMake] Master-switch options

I'm looking to have a certain group of variables controlled primarily by one master setting I want the cache value to be ignored when the user explicitly provides the master variable on the command line and whenever the value of the variable changes. Put another way: When the user EXPLICITLY

Alexander Neundorf said the following on 2/6/2012 3:56 PM: Would it be acceptable if cmake would rerun after every build ? You could enforce that e.g. with a add_custom_command( POST_BUILD ... ) which could e.g. touch CMakeCache.txt or something. Better ideas ? We're working in a client/server

[CMake] Portable revision lookup?

Right now I wrap my Linux-based build process with a script that features the line REVISION=`svn info ${SRC_PATH} | awk '/^Revision/ { print $2 }'` Which is neither OS or VCS portable. I'm trying to put together a CPack configuration to make the builds, and I'd like to name the resulting i

[CMake] Compile multiple-sources at a time?

I realize not every build environment supports the option, but is there a way to get CMake to generate Makefiles which aggregate source files, e.g. $ g++ -pipe -o library.a lib1.cpp lib2.cpp lib3.cpp $ g++ -pipe -o exeutable file1.cpp file2.cpp file3.cpp library.a - Oliver -- Powered by www.

Michael Jackson said the following on 11/15/2010 11:56 AM: Ahh. It is a bit clearer the tract you are taking. What I am suggesting is that you only have to run the "scanner" once and keep the results in CMake syntax files so that CMake can just simply re-use the list. As you add headers during

Re: [CMake] header files with visual studio

Eric Noulard said the following on 11/11/2010 5:53 AM: Having a lot of source code re-use from "source modules" that can be shared between several projects is off course a necessary goal when your source code base grows and the set of projects using those goes along the same curve. My experience
