Thank you Michele, This is exactly what I'm after. You specify cmake v3.6 docs ? Is it only working from 3.6.x ? I have 3.5.2 on my build system.

For instance, I have a Flex/Byson compiler that is generated locally on i686 , but then compiled for ARM.

This is both better and worse, depending on your point of view, so you may need to do some research/experimenting to see which is a better fit for your situation.

Of course, this will fail, since the tools are compiled for arm also and thus won't execute on my host system. So the tools need to be compiled for i686 whilst the rest for arm. I'm sure this can be handled by CMake although haven't done it before so would appreciate pointers :) Regards /Robert -- Powered by www.kitware.com<http://www.kitware.com> Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
