<font size=5>Welcome</font> to CMake, the cross-platform, open-source make
system. CMake is used to control the software compilation process using
simple platform and compiler independent configuration files. CMake
generates native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in the compiler
environment of your choice. CMake is quite sophisticated: it is possible to
support complex environments requiring system configuration, pre-processor
generation, code generation, and template instantiation. Please go <a
href="/CMake/HTML/About.html">here</a> to learn more about CMake.
<P>
CMake was developed by
<a href="http://www.kitware.com">Kitware</a> as part of the
<a href="http://public.kitware.com/Insight">NLM Insight Segmentation and
Registration Toolkit</a> project.
The <a href="http://www.asci.doe.gov/scs/views.htm">ASCI VIEWS project</a>
also provided support in the context of their
parallel computation environment. Other sponsors include the Insight,
<a href="http://www.kitware.com/vtk.html">VTK</a>, and
<a href="http://www.robots.ox.ac.uk/~vxl/">VXL</a>
open source software communities.
<p>
The goals for CMake include the following:
<ul>
<li>Develop an open source, cross-platform tool to manage the build process,
<li>Allow the use of native compilers and systems,
<li>Simplify the build process,
<li>Optionally provide a user-interface to manage the build system,
<li>Create an extensible framework,
<li>Grow a self-sustaining community of software users and developers.
</ul>
