For now, I am resigned to following the current doc, which works fine aside from requiring an add_dependencies each and every time you refer to an external project. But I'm confused. http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=10395 is marked as fixed in 2.8.4. Does that mean I can do something like set_property(TARGET log4cplus PROPERTY DEPENDS EP_log4cplus) and have it work? If so, shouldn't that be mentioned in http://www.kitware.com/products/html/BuildingExternalProjectsWithCMake2.8.html ? - Dan -- 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
