Let me restate the problem: we support several compilers. When using one particular compiler we need to add an option specific to that compiler. How do I make sure that all 200 developer get this option specified right everytime?
I got a great answer for -mtune=atom (seems obvious in hindsight), but I'm not clear on how to disable warnings - I'm going to assume that in some other compiler this warning exists, but it doesn't product the false positives we see. (I haven't investigated this particular case, I'm assuming the option is because of false positives) -----Original Message----- From: Игорь Пашев [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2013 11:31 PM To: Miller Henry Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [CMake] Alternate compiler specific options - how to specify? 2013/9/11 Miller Henry <[email protected]>: > We are using cmake 2.8.11 for out project. > > Our local compiler is gcc-4.4.3.
