The GNU compiler front-ends on AIX invoke the linker with flags of the form "-L/path/to/gnu/runtime/lib" to tell ld where to find the language runtime libraries. They depend on the default libpath behavior documented in "man ld" to add the -L paths also to the runtime libpath so the dynamic loader can find the language runtime libraries. This differs from platforms whose linkers have distinct -rpath flags that non-system compilers can use to tell the dynamic loader where to find their language runtime libraries. Since commit 96fd5909 (Implement linking with paths to library files, 2008-01-22) CMake always passes "-Wl,-blibpath:" followed by any project-defined RPATH plus "/usr/lib:/lib" in order to explicitly set the runtime libpath and avoid getting all the project -L paths in the runtime libpath. The explicit libpath prevents the GNU compiler runtime library -L paths from being placed in the libpath and then the dynamic loader fails to find the language runtime libraries. CMake already detects the implicit link directories for each language since commit 07ea19ad (Implicit link info for C, CXX, and Fortran, 2009-07-23). Add the implicit link directories to the explicit runtime libpath for GNU compilers on AIX to fix this use case.
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
