Since it's a CMake build, ExternalProject should make it fairly straightforward. A quick sketch of the non-boilerplate code I see in the current contracts tests: externalproject_add(kdelibs GIT_REPOSITORY [...] GIT_TAG [...] # The oldest supported release. CMAKE_ARGS [...] INSTALL_DIR "${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/install") externalproject_add(someotherkdelib DEPENDS kdelibs GIT_REPOSITORY [...] GIT_TAG [...] # The oldest supported release. CMAKE_ARGS # Might not be necessary. "-DCMAKE_MODULE_PATH={$CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/install/lib/cmake" [...] INSTALL_DIR "${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/install") The rationale for using the oldest supported release is so that we make sure whatever was written *then* still works today. --Ben -- 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.
