Hello:I'm a newbie cmake user and would like to rename the makefile produced by running cmake. I have searched the doc, mailinglist-archive and web, but to no avail. This is useful because: 1 - It provides a convenient way to slowly transition form existing makefiles to the use of cmake. 2 - I fill my makefiles full of all sorts of convenient targets like the following and I do not want to have to figure out how to do them in cmake. grep : @-for c in ${COMPONENTS} ; do \ echo "################ grep:" $$c; \ ( cd ./$$c; grep -i xyz *.h *.c *.cc ) ; \ done This is possible with Qt/qmake: MAKEFILE = xyz.make Obviously I could issue an OS command to rename the makefile, but that is an extra step which would be forgotten, varies from OS to OS and would clobber my real makefile which is named Makefile. So, is there a command I can place in my CMakeLists.txt files which will cause them to produce a file named xyz.make (let's say) instead of Makefile. Thanks in advance.
Use out of source builds, and there should be no-conflict. There is no way to rename the makefiles.
mkdir build cd build. cmake ../path/to/source make -Bill _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
