In my project group we are using CMake to generate c++/cli winform projects and I noticed the work done in commit 79ec7868 (VS: Add Windows Forms Support, 2013-04-29) was in the right direction for solving some of the problems we were facing. The changes as submitted was breaking some functionality in our projects, so I made some changes that fixes our problems and I believe that it will also work for others. * Resx files did not link correctly with the winform h-file so I added the Resx configuration to the vcxproj file. * I removed the functionality for setting <CLRSupport> true for the project based on if an resx-file is pressent. This is preventing us from using native cpp code. Also this do not address that some projects will need to set other options like clr:pure, clr:safe. This could be implemented as a cmake option, so it is possible to specify exactly what is needed. Existing VSWindowsFormsResx Test project is updated so it will be working with my changes.
This is CMake, the cross-platform, open-source make system. CMake is distributed under the BSD License, see Copyright.txt. For documentation see the Docs/ directory once you have built CMake or visit http://www.cmake.org. Building CMake ============== Supported Platforms ------------------- MS Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, HP-UX, IRIX, BeOS, QNX Other UNIX-like operating systems may work too out of the box, if not it shouldn't be a major problem to port CMake to this platform. Contact the CMake mailing list in this case: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake If you don't have any previous version of CMake already installed -------------------------------------------------------------- * UNIX/Mac OSX/MinGW/MSYS/Cygwin: You need to have a compiler and a make installed. Run the bootstrap script you find the in the source directory of CMake. You can use the --help option to see the supported options. You may want to use the --prefix=<install_prefix> option to specify a custom installation directory for CMake. You can run the bootstrap script from within the CMake source directory or any other build directory of your choice. Once this has finished successfully, run make and make install. So basically it's the same as you may be used to from autotools-based projects: $ ./bootstrap; make; make install * Other Windows: You need to download and install a binary release of CMake in order to build CMake. You can get these releases from http://www.cmake.org/HTML/Download.html . Then proceed with the instructions below. You already have a version of CMake installed --------------------------------------------- You can build CMake as any other project with a CMake-based build system: run the installed CMake on the sources of this CMake with your preferred options and generators. Then build it and install it. For instructions how to do this, see http://www.cmake.org/HTML/RunningCMake.html
