I often build with export CC='gcc -g -fvisibility=hidden export CXX='g++ -g -fvisibility=hidden' and export FC='gfortran -g -fvisibility=hidden'
but recently this has quit working because CMake fails to add the necessary -fPIC flag to shared library builds.
Sorry I don't know the last CMake version where this worked, but I am pretty sure I have used this sort of build successfully for earlier versions of 2.8.x, and definitely for cmake-2.6.4. If I specify the flags another way, e.g., cmake -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS:STRING="-g -fvisibility=hidden" \ -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS:STRING="-g -fvisibility=hidden" \ -DCMAKE_Fortran_FLAGS:STRING="-g -fvisibility=hidden" \ ... the necessary -fPIC flag for shared libraries is added in properly. However, I would like the more convenient (set and forget) environment variable approach to continue to work as previously. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
