I still don't understand when variables are inherited by subdirectories.
I see that if I define the variable using cmake -D then it is the same
in all subdirectories. I guess I could use an environment variable.
However, if I do something like:
SET (FINITO_INSTALL_DIR /Users/jgonzalez/financial/finito/trunk CACHE
PATH "finito-dir")
it is not inherited by subdirectories. What am I missing
Hello,
Which command do you use for subdirectories ?
Be sure to use ADD_SUBDIRECTORY and not SUBDIRS which is an old command
left in current release for compatibility purpose.
The behavior of ADD_SUBDIRECTORY is that each CMakeLists.txt added with
this command inherits from the variables set in the caller CMakeLists.txt.
