Re: [CMake] is it possible to download CMake modules at configure time?
dear Jean-Christophe, absolutely. it will take a bit of time until we finetune things but the plan is to have and share an open source repository (probably on github) that will provide generic plug-n-play CMake infrastructure for projects that require Fortran, C, and C++, as well as MPI/OpenMP, BLAS, and LAPACK. the focus is on scientific computing but i will try to keep things general and generic also for other projects. best greetings, radovan On Fri, 19 Apr 2013 18:45:04 +0200, Jean-Christophe Fillion-Robin jchris.filli...@kitware.com wrote: Hi Radovan, That is good news :) Do you think you could share the CMake code you ended up created.

Re: [CMake] is it possible to download CMake modules at configure time?
Hi, That is awesome. May be the most generic component could be hosted on the http://github.com/commontk ? We are also trying to make generic component allowing to easily build application relying on multiple project. The idea would be to provide a drop-in CMake module (named CMakeSuperBuild ?) allowing to very very easily leverage External project. We would also have a repository of existing external project definition that could easily be re-used. This new module would also provide the helper to make packaging and MAcOSx bundling easier.
