According to a cursory look most of those seem to be of the type "call some command with a list of files". The external command can be external (such as zip) or an internal script file, usually in Perl. These are straightforward to port to CMake, though will obviously take some work. The calls are similar to invocations of Flex or Bison or a self-compiled exe such as idlc. The most complex thing I found was the versioning thing explained in cli_ure/readme.txt. A couple of iterations through the text and makefiles did not make it clear to me what it is supposed to do. However: 1) CMake has support for library versioning. It may or may not be the same thing: http://cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#command:set_target_properties 2) If this dark magic is contained in an external script and makefile.mk only instructs when and how to invoke it, this is the same thing as discussed above. If the versioning is something completely different, then that needs to be examined. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
