Hi,
I'm trying to build Google protocol buffers as an external project on
Windows and am hitting an issue with over assuming something is a path.
I need to be able to call msbuild with options. (/p:Configuration=Debug),
but cmake converts this to \p:Configuration=Debug before passing the
string to msbuild.
Which obviously throws a wobbly.
A backup plan is to use a batch file to split cmake and msbuild, but I
wondered if there was a cleaner solution ?
For information the actual recipe is
ExternalProject_Add(
${PROTOBUF}32
PREFIX exports
URL ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/depot/${PROTOBUF}.tar.gz
UPDATE_COMMAND ""
BUILD_IN_SOURCE 1
PATCH_COMMAND cmake.exe -E copy
${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/depot/protobuf-vs2010.sln vsprojects/protobuf.sln
CONFIGURE_COMMAND ""
BUILD_COMMAND "msbuild vsprojects/protobuf.sln '/p:Configuration=Debug'
'/p:Platform=Win32'"
TEST_BEFORE_INSTALL 1
TEST_COMMAND tests.exe
# INSTALL_COMMAND nmake install DESTDIR=${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/exports
)
Thanks,
Richard.
