building multiple targets

[laforesp...@gmail.com]

Hello everyone,

I would like to know if there is a mechanism to build more than one target other than having to hard-code a TARGET_IS_X or TARGET_IS_Y in a CMakeLists.txt ?

Here are some details about my problem : our project consists of three modules (targets) and each of them has a CMakeLists.txt file. Is there an easy way to compile them individually ?

Thank you,

Pierre-Marc

Is this a question on cmake? I can't see how it is related to the
cmake4eclipse plugin?

Hum maybe, maybe not. From what I understand, the plugin generates a cmake command like the following :

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS:BOOL=ON -G Ninja -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE:STRING=toolchain.cmake "C:\\Users\\cmgpml\\Documents\\projets\\CMake_WS\\other_attempt".

Is is possible to somehow specify a build target to the plugin ? Is there a variable for this ? Sorry if its a dumb question or even unrelated to the plugin.

If I understand you correctly - It's actually the next step you are looking for.

cmake doesn't actually make anything, it only generates the makefiles. 

In the properties for the eclipse project - c++ build section, there is a setting on what make target is to be called. Default is "all" but you can configure it to whatever target you want.

What would be nice is if the cmake4eclipse plugin could generate a list of targets and let you easily choose between them.

Not easy to accomplish, since the available targets differ depending on the
generator and the CMakeLists.txt. For example, unless you add a
enable_testing() command, you won't get a 'test' target.

cmake can generate a list of targets, once cmake has been run on a cmakelists. Based on that it should be possible to generate build configurations?
