Yes, a lot of them: include directories specification, optimization flags (they also work as -D directives, e.g. they define __SSE2__ or not), language error handling mode (e.g. --Wno-pmf-conversion) etc. In fact I need the entire command line with option -E attached at the end. I would be happy to grab it from any C++-dependent object file (as they all use the same set of options). > What other flags do you really need? Well, pretty everything except "-o". Perfect matching is of key importance, as the result of preprocessing is a form of environment for a dynamic code generator. I need precisely the same set of interface definitions as the hand-compiled objects use. I am also very surprised that this problem is so hard in CMake -- I thought there is a single variable specifying a template for a given target, e.g. *.cpp => *.o Best regards Piotr Wyderski _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
