I'm a CMake newbie and I'd appreciate help creating a makefile *from*
a Visual Studio .NET 2003 project/solution. I'm trying like to migrate
my projects to eclipse and I hope CMake will help make that transition.
I'm trying to generate a Unix style (or NMake) Makefile that I can use
to port my visual studio project to eclipse. I've tried running cmake on
the project directory with the -G"Unix Makefiles" and -G"NMake
Makefiles" option, but its not working -- I'm getting lots of errors.
Apparently, I'm missing a number of variables. How can I set these
variables? I'd still like to use the Microsoft compiler *but* within the
eclipse environment.
You need to setup the MS compile to work from the command line. The easy
way is to run the visual studio command prompt from the start menu under
visual studio tools. Then run cmake from that shell, and it should work.
Also, I've previously run CMake on the project directory, and I got
TestTexturePlugin.vcproj.cmake, ALL_BUILD.vcproj.cmake. What is a cmake
file? And what can I do with it?
There should also be a .vcproj file and a .sln file. The .cmake files
are sort of time stamp files so we can do copy if different operations
and not have visual studio remove its own files.
