It looks like subclassing cmLocalNinjaGenerator to override some path-related bits and it should work (though it has changed enough with cmState that I can't tell what exactly without doing more digging). The hardest problem is going to be with testing. Every generate step will also have to dump a build.ninja file out so that it can be properly tested. Brad is back later this week and may have other ideas too. --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.
