Problem with CMake 2.8.4-rc1: when you launch the NSIS exe installer on Windows, the default install path shown to the end user is, at first, "\CMake 2.8". This problem started occurring when configuring CMake itself with an older CMake, after adding CPACK_NSIS_INSTALL_ROOT to fix issue 9148. So... it's a regression from 2.8.3. I forgot (again) that when you add a new CPack variable, you must add it to CMake's CMakeCPack.cmake file or else it is empty when configured with an older CMake. And on Windows, without a bootstrap build available, the releases are always configured with an older version of CMake. This may be the last time this has bitten me, though, because it is now burned into my brain that problems with CMake's installer itself are inevitably associated with adding new CPack variables. In addition to adding a definition for CPACK_NSIS_INSTALL_ROOT, I've gone ahead and made it differ for the 32- and 64-bit builds of CMake to give the end user the expected default value for the Program Files folder for each one. And, since I was adding a new 32/64 differentiator anyhow, I made the "NSIS package name" and "installer registry key base" different for 64-bit builds, too, by appending " (Win64)" to each one. These address the concerns mentioned in 9148's related issue: http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=9094 (at least as far as CMake's installer is concerned). 9094 could still use a good general fix for all projects, though, and remains open for now. |

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
