Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-700:
-----------------------------------
The top-level BUILD.txt should be updated to note cmake as a dependency.
Once I've installed cmake, running './build.sh compile' on Ubuntu 10.10 gives
me:
{code}
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:83 (install):
install TARGETS given no LIBRARY DESTINATION for shared library target
"avrocpp".
{code}
Also, after running this there are a bunch of CMake* files. Should
apply-patch.sh add these to svn's ignore list for the directory?

> If we move from the current automake to CMake, build becomes portable across
> multiple platforms. Prior to this patch, Avro C++ was building on Cygwin but
> was crashing. I've tested this on Ubuntu 10.04 and Cygwin.
> There are problems making it work with Visual Studio 2008 Express, not
> because of CMake, but because the current build procedure needs Flex, Bison
> and python. Visual Studio seems to have trouble with these three.
