Hi Pat,

Shouldn't it work without any changes to cmake because Cray compiler wrappers (CC and cc) define __CRAYXT_COMPUTE_LINUX_TARGET on the compile line? At least this is true on the XT5. eg CC -v to show what's there.

That patch only works if you use a customized cmake platform file that contains the line-

    SET(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME CRAYXT_COMPUTE_LINUX)

I've been discussing with Bill Hoffman a more general solution. It will probably involve new cmake variable that is configured into DynamicLoader.hxx.in <http://dynamicloader.hxx.in/>. The variable could be set by a platform file or a try-compile test.


A separate issue- we're running into fragmentation of the cross-compile instructions. There are now a few different wiki pages. The one Burlen linked to was written by John Patchet in January based on my build notes and his own experiences. My notes are in a github repository <http://github.com/patmarion/crosscompiling-paraview> and that wiki page is no longer in sync with them.

    I don't see why not. Pat, any objections?
