I'm slowly learning cmake and converting some real software to it, targeting Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X. Along the way, I'm making minimal working examples (they're a lot easier to debug them than the real thing) and putting them up at http://code.google.com/p/winezeug/source/browse/#svn/trunk/cmake_examples
Today, I wrote an example that uses a single function from boost. It's at http://code.google.com/p/winezeug/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk%2Fcmake_examples%2Fex4 For Linux, demo.sh builds and runs the example, assuming you've installed everything needed with apt-get. For Windows (or Linux with Wine), demo.bat builds and runs the example, assuming you've installed visual c++ 2005 express, the win 7 platform sdk, and boostpro.com's pre-build boost (the whole thing, don't skip any libraries, or you may be mystified why things don't link, like I was). It sets BOOST_ROOT so find_package can find boost. And now the question. I needed to put $BOOST_ROOT/lib into the LIB environment variable by hand (well, by running http://code.google.com/p/winezeug/source/browse/trunk/cmake_examples/settings.bat ). If I leave it out, I get the error LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_date_time-vc80-mt-gd-1_47.lib' when bulding on Windows. Shouldn't find_package have taken care of that? -- 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
