Greetings I am learning cmake.
I think I now know how to generate libraries and executables but I have not yet grasped how the tree and directory structure is handled and by conseqence how one navigates therein. I have this problem. Lets say my build tree has these directories L---$originalSourceTree/build/lib M---$originalSourceTree/build/bin libraries say libA.so libB.a are in L. I want to generate executables A.bin and B.bin in M but they each need to link to newly generated libraries libA.so libB.a a) how do I direct cmake (in the CMakeLists.txt/base directory) to build the libraries in ( L )above first -i.e. before atempting to do finds of nonexistant libraries ? b) if I insert lines such 'find_library(LIB libA path ../lib' in the CmakeLists.txt in the base directory this results in an error so what does one insert? c) Further down the road, if the generated executables ae linked to libraries in the build tree, what happens when one does a 'make install' to the 'permanent' filesystem? Are the dependencies transfered? _______________________________________________ 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
