Hello,
I would like to set up a "superbuild" for my project.
I would like it to be as clean/basic as possible.
Let's say I want to build VTK as my "ExternalProject". How should I
proceed to link it to my current project.
My current project requires VTK to be built.
So FIND_PACKAGE cannot work. (vtk source code not there during the
configuration step)
And I didn't get any success manually setting VTK_DIR, VTK_INCLUDE_DIRS,
etc. at the end of my External-VTK.cmake file. Is it the way to go?
How should I proceed to do it?
Is there any tutorial on the net? (I couldn't find any)
I had a look at CTK's and Slicer's superbuilds but we would like
something more basic and straight forward. Is it possible?
Is there a special option in CMake/ExternalProjects to be enabled or
anything we can do about it?
A workaround was to build "myProject" as an ExternalProject linked to
the "VTK ExternalProject", and to turn off USE_SUPERBUILD but I don't
really like this solution.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks
