I'm confused about the following documentation.
The CMake FAQ section "How do I use a different compiler?" states:
"Set the appropriate CMAKE_FOO_COMPILER variable(s) to a valid compiler name or
full path in a list file using set(). This must be done before any language is
set (ie before any project() or enable_language() command)."
I want to conditionally choose the compiler based on platform. My CMakeList.txt
contains code similar to the following:
cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 2.6)
if (CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME STREQUAL "Platform1")
set (CMAKE_C_COMPILER cc1)
set (CMAKE_C_FLAGS -XYZ1)
elseif (CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME STREQUAL "platform2")
set (CMAKE_C_COMPILER cc2)
set (CMAKE_C_FLAGS -XYZ2)
endif()
project(test)
...
However, before "project()" is called, the CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME appears
undefined. When is CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME defined?
Is another option available to switch on the system before "project()" is
invoked?
Thanks.
