Hi<br><br>I'm writing a grand top-level CMakeLists.txt that delegates to a number of CMakeLists.txt in various subdirectories:<br><br>add_subdirectories(foo)<br>add_subdirectories(bar)<br><br>Is there a straightforward to get cmake to do a make install for foo before continuing on to do bar? And to prevent a parallel build from starting in bar until this is completed for foo?</blockquote>
<div><br>"bar" depending on the make installed form of "foo"? Are you sure you want this? If bar depends on foo you probably want to use include_directories() and target_link_libraries() to link against the compiled form of foo, not what's make installed.<br>
<br><br><br>To answer your question though one way would be to use a variable for this:<br><br>if(USE_BAR)<br> add_subdirectory(bar)<br>endif()<br><br>cmake ..<br>make install<br>cmake -DUSE_BAR=ON ..<br>make install<br>
