<p>Hi Radovan,<br>
Did you manage to make use and/or generalize the code I pointed you?<br>
Thanks<br>

Hi Radovan,<br>
<br>
This is possible. You could look at the approach we consider in CTK.<br>
See<br>

dear CMake developers and users,<br>
<br>
first of all, a big thanks for the CMake developers<br>
for a great product! we like CMake a lot.<br>
<br>
we are extensively using CMake external project support<br>
in combination with Git submodules in a number of larger<br>
projects and that works nicely.<br>
<br>
my question is: could i do something similar with CMake<br>
modules? is it possible to start with a minimal core<br>
CMakeLists.txt which would fetch other CMake modules from an<br>
external public (Git) repository<br>
and use them to configure the project?<br>
<br>
the motivation for this is that we have several projects<br>
with rather complex CMake infrastructures. the projects<br>
are independent, live on different repositories, but the<br>
CMake infrastructures are to a large extent overlapping.<br>
currently we synchronize the CMake code between these projects<br>
manually but this is not great and there is the risk that<br>
the codes will diverge, that wheels will be reinvented,<br>
and that improvements are not communicated between the projects.<br>
this could be avoided if the CMake code was not explicitly<br>
present but fetched from a repository which would also<br>
enforce (or encourage) communicating all improvements<br>
to the same place. everything that is generic and not project<br>
specific would go into that external repo, only project specific<br>
things would be kept in the minimal core CMakeLists.txt.<br>
<br>
i will appreciate any pointers and suggestions<br>
on how i could implement such a scheme.<br>
<br>
thanks and best regards,<br>
radovan<br>
