When reconfiguring an already configured project, specifying certain variables like CMAKE_C_COMPILER invalidates the cache and makes CMake do another reconfiguration during which the command line settings are lost, CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME in your case; cf. [1-3]. AFAIK, the best you can do is to use one build tree per toolchain from the first and specify compilers by the environment variables CC, CXX, FC etc. Regards, Michael [1] http://www.mail-archive.com/cmake@cmake.org/msg34486.html [2] http://www.mail-archive.com/cmake@cmake.org/msg37060.html [3] http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=9980 _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
