The parent commit added a warning message whenever a required file
does not exist.
As it turns out, the "required" files never exist when built with
Visual Studio Express editions. Add a variable to suppress these
warning messages because only packagers or naive includers of
this file will care to see such warning messages.
We want to warn about this condition by default so that people who
are using InstallRequiredSystemLibraries without understanding it
fully will have a chance of understanding why it's not working in
the event of missing required files.
But we also want to give projects the ability to suppress this warning
(by "project's choice default") so that they can encourage users who
are restricted to using an Express edition to build their project.
Packagers should explicitly use...
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS_NO_WARNINGS=OFF
...when building releases. That way, their release build process will warn
them about any missing files, but only if their project CMakeLists files
use a construct similar to CMake's:
IF(NOT DEFINED CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS_NO_WARNINGS)
SET(CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS_NO_WARNINGS ON)
ENDIF()
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
