I realize that sometimes dependencies are necessary.
But.
There's a very strong argument to be made that projects should not
have "a lot" of external dependencies.
If you really need to tell an ExternalProject "build this external
project the same way as the main one," you should probably write
Because it will be an ad-hoc solution. Also each time I will start
using a new toolchain file (for another device/platform) I will need
to modify that wrapper script. And each time I will override some
toolchain variable I will need to look into that wrapper to verify
that this variable will be for
Why wouldn't you just write your own "toolchain wrapper" file which
has all the variables you speak of, but also includes the "real"
toolchain file, and then use the wrapper as your CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE
value ... ?

Hi,
I'm using cmake and CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE to build the project and it's
dependencies. Some toolchain files have additional options (like API
version, target architecture, linker type, etc.) which you need to
pass to cmake command with "-D" in addition to the
"-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=" itself.
