Currently running cmake/ccmake without arguments is equal running it with --help which is bad idea since it doesn't really tell what to do. Instead of that attached patch makes them emit shorter brief with hint: ==== $ cmake/bin/cmake Usage cmake [options] <path-to-source> cmake [options] <path-to-existing-build> Hint cmake . for in-source build (not recommended) cmake .. for out-of-source build inside subfolder cmake --help for more information Note: Building in separate folder leaves source files intact. === ====================================================================== Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2014-06-12 14:57 Adam StrzeleckiNew Issue 2014-06-12 14:57 Adam StrzeleckiFile Added: 0001-Produce-shorter-output-on-no-arguments.patch ====================================================================== -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
