Well - I'll take your word for it; but I still insist there must be some
filesystem convention involved - otherwise the system must pure magic to find
the upstream source and build locations?
SRC=${HOME}/work/opm/src/opm
BUILD=${HOME}/data/opm/build/opm/opt/seq/dune-2.3.1
for m in ${modlist}; do
mkdir ${BUILD}/${m}
cd ${BUILD}/${m}
cmake [configuration options] ${SRC}/${m}
make -j ${N}
done
In a configuration where support for sibling builds has been removed this could
be rewritten as:
OUTPUT_PATH=${HOME}/data/opm/build/install
SRC=${HOME}/work/opm/src/opm
BUILD=${HOME}/data/opm/build/opm/opt/seq/dune-2.3.1
for m in ${modlist}; do
mkdir ${BUILD}/${m}
cd ${BUILD}/${m}
cmake [configuration options] -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${OUTPUT_PATH}
-DOPM_ROOT=${OUTPUT_PATH} ${SRC}/${m}
make -j ${N}
make install
done
I appreciate that the need to run 'make install' before changes are visible
downstream is a clear disadvantage in a developer workflow, but for build
testing like the script shown above I really do not see the disadvantage - it
certainly makes sense to test the build target as well; a friend of mine form
Germany used to break that target in 50% of his PR's:).
If we in addition make use of the LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH (and automatically copy
headers) the build script could be:
OUTPUT_PATH=${HOME}/data/opm/build/install
SRC=${HOME}/work/opm/src/opm
BUILD=${HOME}/data/opm/build/opm/opt/seq/dune-2.3.1
for m in ${modlist}; do
mkdir ${BUILD}/${m}
cd ${BUILD}/${m}
# It might be natural to join the -DOUTPUT_PATH and -DOPM_ROOT
switches; if you specify that output should go
# to ${OUTPUT_PATH} you should automatically also search that
location?
cmake [configuration options] -DOUTPUT_PATH=${OUTPUT_PATH}
-DOPM_ROOT=${OUTPUT_PATH} ${SRC}/${m}
make -j ${N}
done
This last approach is admittedly only in my head at the moment.
I'll log out now and be back on Tuesday.
