By default, variables (such as CMAKE_C_FLAGS and CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS) open a new nested scope with each subdirectory. So, any changes you make in a directory will only be seen in that directory and its children, not any parent or sibling directories.<br>
<br>So, in short, you can just do what you were planning to do, it should work fine.<br><br>Ryan<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jul 14, 2010 at 9:37 AM, <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:Michael.Schmidt@l-3com.com">Michael.Schmidt@l-3com.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
My project has third party source in a subdirectory. The third party<br>
source has to be compiled without special options. With autoconf, we<br>
had "CFLAGS =". How would I do the same with cmake and restore CFLAGS<br>
to their original value in the parent directory?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
