Hi All,
I have a superbuild style project consisting of a few external
projects. I wish to build the install target of one of them as part of
the install target of the parent project. I had it working by adding a
step target called install and adding a custom target to the parent
project that depends on the child step target. E.g.
ExternalProject_Add (xxx
SVN_REPOSITORY ${xxx_repo}
CMAKE_ARGS
-D CMAKE_INSTALL_PATH=<INSTALL_DIR>
INSTALL_DIR ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}
STEP_TARGETS install)
add_custom_target (install DEPENDS xxx-install)
This arrangement allowed me to 'cmake --build . --target install' and
have the child project install target run.
Now CMake complains about policy CMP0037, because I cannot define a
reserved target name, so it seems I cannot abuse the 'install' target
by adding extra dependencies any more.
Is there a better way to link child and parent targets that doesn't
invoke this error?
No replies on this one. Am I asking something that can't be done or am I
missing something obvious?
Regards
Bill Somerville.
