How to specify a compiler in CMake?

To select a specific compiler, you have several solutions, as exaplained in CMake wiki: Method 1: use environment variables For C and C++, set the CC and CXX environment variables.

We are having trouble compiling a project using CMake (v2.8.12) under Windows 7 64Bit using Visual Studio 2012. CMake gives us the following errors. We already tried starting Cmake from the Visual Studio Command Line using admin rights. There seems to have been a similar bug in CMake 2.8.11: http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=14440

Debug vs Release in CMake

With CMake, it’s generally recommended to do an “out of source” build. Create your CMakeLists.txt in the root of your project. Then from the root of your project: And for Debug (again from the root of your project): Release / Debug will add the appropriate flags for your compiler. There are also RelWithDebInfo and MinSizeRel build configurations. You can modify/add to the flags by specifying a toolchain file in … Read more

What is the difference between include_directories and target_include_directories in CMake?

include_directories(x/y) affects directory scope. All targets in this CMakeList, as well as those in all subdirectories added after the point of its call, will have the path x/y added to their include path. target_include_directories(t x/y) has target scope—it adds x/y to the include path for target t. You want the former one if all of your targets use the include directories in … Read more
