Well, it seems that CMAKE_ASM_COMPILER is being invoked as a literal. If I copy 
dasm.exe to CMAKE_ASM_COMPILER.exe, it works, happily assembles files.

So it's a bug in (a) what I did, (b) the instructions, or (c) the quasi-asm 
support in there already.

I did notice that the ATT support (which 
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake/Assembler#How_to_add_support_for_other_assembler_.22dialects.22
 says to use as a model) doesn't quite match the instructions: 
CMakeDetermineASM-ATTCompiler sets CMAKE_ASM${ASM_DIALECT}_COMPILER_INIT, not 
CMAKE_ASM${ASM_DIALECT}_COMPILER as the instructions would suggest. But I tried 
setting that and it didn't make any difference that I could see.

Subject: Re: [CMake] ASM support

I got back on this, and found a big part of my problem. The Wiki page says:

"Edit CMakeASM_FOOInformation.cmake. ... then include the generic 
CMakeASMInformation.cmake."
and later:
"Edit CMakeDetermineASM_FOOCompiler.cmake. ...then include the generic file..."

What wasn't obvious to me (though of course it is now) was that the second 
"generic file" wasn't the same as the first. If the Wiki page could say 
"...then include the generic file CMakeDetermineASMCompiler.cmake" it would 
help.

ISTR that if you say INCLUDE(banana.cmake) it looks for it in the local 
directory, whereas INCLUDE(banana) looks for it in Modules. This could be made 
clearer too, as "include the generic CMakeASMInformation.cmake" is likely to 
result in the former.

Now...CMake says it works, but "make" says:

[ 11%] Building ASM_DIGNUS object CMakeFiles/zfpe.dir/temp/ZOSFINFO.asm.o
make[2]: CMAKE_ASM_COMPILER: Command not found
make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/zfpe.dir/temp/ZOSFINFO.asm.o] Error 127
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/zfpe.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

I thought the issue was related to using a front-end script for the assembler, 
such that the actual command (if typed on the commandline) to do an assembly 
would be "rexx.exe cc.rex dasm.exe" (with flags and operands after that), but I 
simplified it to just "dasm" and get the same error.

My CMakeASM_DIGNUSInformation.cmake is:

set(ASM_DIALECT _DIGNUS)
include(CMakeASMInformation)
set(ASM_DIALECT)
SET(CMAKE_ASM_DIGNUS_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS asm)
SET(CMAKE_ASM_DIGNUS_OUTPUT_EXTENSION ".o" )
SET(CMAKE_ASM_DIGNUS_COMPILE_OBJECT "<CMAKE_ASM_COMPILER> -o <OBJECT> <SOURCE>")

My CMakeDetermineASM_DIGNUSCompiler.cmake is:
set(ASM_DIALECT _DIGNUS)
SET(CMAKE_ASM${ASM_DIALECT}_COMPILER_INIT dasm)
include(CMakeDetermineASMCompiler)
set(ASM_DIALECT)

My CMakeTestASM_DIGNUSCompiler.cmake is:
set(ASM_DIALECT _DIGNUS)
include(CMakeTestASMCompiler)
set(ASM_DIALECT)

I'm sure this is something dumb, but ... ideas?

TIA

It's only three weeks old or so.
