Hi All,
I want to force an 'out-of-source' build for a small project that I converted
to use Cmake.
I did a bit of searching and found variants of the following...
# Make sure the build is out of source
STRING(COMPARE EQUAL "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}" "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}" insource)
IF(insource)
MESSAGE(FATAL_ERROR "Do not build in your source dir please :)")
ENDIF(insource)
It works but it still generates a CMakeCache.txt file and a CMakeFiles
directory in the source directory (which I've also seen others discussing)...
is there a more official way to block 'in-source' builds that leaves the source
dir pristine?
