Hi Brad, Thank you for the one-to-one answers! Much appreciated! I was afraid of 3) as a reasonable answer. Unfortunately intel PSXE installation process has some desirables as a process, and things do not always work as intended, hence I was hoping for a workaround. In case you would like to oblige even more: how is the specification of the toolset (from command line) translates to the modules folder in CMake? (only if it is not too much to ask). At any rate, thank you very much again and have a very nice weekend! Petros

You shouldn't need to do this, and there isn't really a way to do it. -Brad -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
