The compiler candidate list selection and search code for C, C++, ASM, and Fortran languages was duplicated across four modules. To look for compilers adjacent to already-enabled languages the C and CXX modules each used _CMAKE_USER_(C|CXX)_COMPILER_PATH and the ASM module used _CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_LOCATION. Since commit 4debb7ac (Bias Fortran compiler search with C/C++ compilers, 2009-09-09) CMake prefers Fortran compilers matching the vendor and directory of an enabled C or C++ compiler. Factor out the common functionality among the four languages into a new CMakeDetermineCompiler module. Generalize the Fortran implementation so that all languages may each use the vendor and directory of the other languages that have already been enabled. For now do not list any vendor-specific names for C, C++, or ASM so that only the directory preference is used for these languages (existing behavior).
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
