Well, that is not a cmake problem, much more a compiler/linker problem. But if you can send me the project files needed for wxDevCpp, i can see if i can generate them directly with Cmake for you. I still do not get how wxDevCpp makes things work, using a project files, or makefiles ?? > I would much rather a series of > makefiles for each library/sample which I can call from within a batch > file and leave to run. > As i said before Cmake generates those makefiles for you, and they are makefiles like any other makefiles. Actually they are rather advanced when it comes to dependencies and things like that. So i am not going to write any makefiles by hand, why should i ?? The real problem is how to make order of libraries, flags etc. etc. work, in such a way that all compilers and runs well. And that problem is the same, if i write makefiles or cmake files to generate the makefiles. Anyway, if you manage the directdraw sample or something like that, in release mode, i be glad to have those makefiles. If that works, i must be able to get things working with Cmake also. But they should work with MSYS in that case. Or can i use Cmake to generate for wxDevCpp. When i run CmakeSetup, and choose mingw, it looks like it tries to do that.
