<font size=5>A Summary Of Features</font><br> CMake is an extensible,
open-source system that has several powerful features. These include:
<ul>
<li>Supports complex, large build environments. CMake has been
proven in several large projects.</li>
<li>Generates native build files (e.g., makefiles on Unix;
workspaces/projects on MS Visual C++). Therefore standard
tools can be used on any platform/compiler configuration.</li>
<li>Has powerful commands include the ability to locate
include files, libraries, executables; include external
CMake files that encapsulate standard functionality;
interfaces to testing systems; supports recursive
directory traversal with variable inheritance; can run
external programs; supports conditional builds; supports
regular expression expansion; and so on.</li>
<li>Supports in-place and out-of-place builds. Multiple
compilation trees are possible from a single source tree.</li>
<li>Can be easily extended to add new features.</li>
<li>CMake is open source.</li>
<li>CMake operates with a cache designed to be interfaced with
a graphical editor. The cache provides optional interaction
to conditionally control the build process.</li>
